As described in https://wiki.qt.io/New_Signal_Slot_Syntax.
There are still a few places that use the old syntax that I was planning to leave for a future PR. They are:
common/utils/standardaction.cpp
: This forwards some slots as aconst char *
and requires some more refactoring to make it work with the new style.Oops, this was just a misunderstanding on my side.. apparentlycommon/utils/zoomaction.cpp
: There's adisconnect
in there that isn't ported because I couldn't make it work when compiled with KF5. The signal is deprecated and it doesn't like something..disconnect
doesn't work for lambas!app/mainwindow.cpp
: The new syntax is confused byTikzEditorViewAbstract
not having acontentsChanged
signal. This also seems like it requires some refactoring.Otherwise, the porting is pretty straightforward. Some places are a bit less pretty because the new syntax requires explicit casting for overloaded functions, but it's not too bad.
