WhiZTiM: Tried resending u a mail here I didnt know it did not get to you. Ok. I did just dish out my email here.... Dnt like spammers or bots picking up my email address. Here is it. Remove the % and translate the brackets. "%whiztim (at) outlook (dot) com%"
jst beep me with a simple mail.
The QSystemTray implementation?? 20%. Only started subclassing it before I had to suspend it for other tight engagements. So, Not done. Will be done before the coming week runs out.... But meanwhile, can u Upload ur recent work lemme use that. I love your QML design. Pretty good for touch screen esp Windows8.
oh.. okay.. will upload soon. the design is not QML. for me to do that in QML I will have to write lots of code just to implement default UI behaviours. the design was just done with qss(Qt style Sheets). Qt version of CSS

Wow, Cool project.. remember doing sometime like this but not as deep while learning python back then (https://www.nairaland.com/197567/programming-challenge-pythonjavavb.net-etc#3297355).... Thumbs Up #Following wink

I have tried your program, I think it is interesting. But you can make it more interesting by:

1. Adding a listener to any registered folder.
2. Let the program run as a system service.
3. Try reduce the overall program size (7.523 MB) is much for this current feature. Eliminate any dll that is not useful for now (If using other language is not an option).

Thanks, keep making Nigeria proud.

The maximum compression I have achieved with an app made outta Qt libraries is 3.5MB. And if am not mistaken, that one that was uploaded was compiled with GDB debugging symbols. (debug mode). Hence the libraries are a bit larger than usual. Sorry Kwest, but it is completely impossible to have this app under 4.8MB in Windows... One of Qt's drawback in Windows. But when more features come by in the future, I bet you wouldnt complain of 'app size to app functionality' ratio.

@lordZOUGA. I hv recieved your mail over my phone(I dunno why I cnt send email on it)... Wil reply u as soon as I am on PC. And did an extra work on the system tray... Wanna implement it as a shared library( plain stupidity huh? :-) ). Its been crashing the app. Trying to figure out my 2nd problem. 1st problem on the shared library was the compiler complaining of vtable as regards to moc translation of Q_OBJECT Macro. I managed to solve that one. Now... this current problem? Arrgh!!... Will continue later in the week... I hope the integration of my silly little library works....

I cannot run the program as a service unless I purchase the commercial version of Qt. Add a listener?? I thought I already did that

I can't imagine why you want to use a shared library.. this would take at most 12 lines of code

err... I doubt at most 12 lines.... its a lil bit over 12.
Secondly... I'v never implemented a shared library in Qt before...
Thirdly, I think I get your point. I'll abandon the shared library thing for a major class/routine in future... so, i'll just go back in my free time, scrap the silly endeavor and hardcode it into the project..

Done with systemtray integration... Now prompts close... Whether to run in background(tray) or exit.
Removed "QtConcurrent" header.

Question: where do I place the updates and binary

I haven't updated this thread for a while because the internet connection for my PC was disrupted. So, no update for the remote repository.
I have created a ppa for ubuntu users but yet to add packages to it.
Will update once I restore my internet connection.
@whiztim, you got mail

goon: It works very well on my ubuntu 12.04
okay, do you have any previous installation of qt libraries?
Re: [C++ Open Source] Relax! ( File Management Tool) by lordZOUGA(m): 7:05pm On Dec 09, 2012
to use the online repository(normal apt-get install)

open your terminal and add the repository, you will need an internet connection:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ozojiechikelu/relax-ppa

after that, type the following command
sudo apt-get update

after it updates the local app db
then run:

sudo apt-get install relax


this way you automatically get new updates
