Hi,

Ralf, I have read about the ktoblzcheck project and successfully build the project from source. I have also tested its command line utility to see how it actually works. But I have a few questions.

1. Inside the ktoblzcheck source tree, under bankdata directory, I see multiple bankdata and blzcheck files. Why does bankdata.py generates multiple output files?

2. This project is not hosted over github, so how do we submit the revisions (Pull Requests)? Through mail?

3. Can you point to a small bug fix which is required, so I get a hang of its source code?

BTW regarding me, I am a KDE developer for past 1.5 years and a successful previous year GSoC student for KDE community.

Thanks Ralf.

I understood most of the things.

1. We need to generate SQLite DB from the bankdata text file.

2. Use that DB in the calling API and command line tools.

3. Write the unit-tests and documentation.

But I have a couple of questions. 

1. These changes would be done in kmymonkey or should we integrate it inside ktoblzcheck itself?

in ktoblzcheck to be usable by any finance application

2. I see SQLite DB already being created here https://cgit.kde.org/kmymoney.git/tree/kmymoney/plugins/ibanbicdata/germany/germany.py?h=4.8.

This should be moved to ktoblzcheck and could be used as base.

I would appreciate your reply.

BTW:: Please subscribe to https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-finance-apps for further communications, which should be public according to GSOC rules.

See http://ktoblzcheck.sourceforge.net/ for informations about the
project.  The actual gsoc project covers:

1. integrate generating sqlite database from
https://cgit.kde.org/kmymoney.git/tree/kmymoney/plugins/ibanbicdata/germany?h=4.8


2. replace the code, which uses the bank data text file with code that
uses the new sqlite database

3. write/refactor unit tests for the new code

4. It may required to refactor/simplify the cmake build system while
working on it

5. add additional countries to the generated sqlite database (see
https://cgit.kde.org/kmymoney.git/tree/kmymoney/plugins/ibanbicdata?h=4.8)

6. extend ktoblzcheck code to use  the additional countries

7. write/refactor unit tests for the new code

8. update ktoblzcheck documentation

You should subscribe https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-soc for
getting in contact with the project and study

Ralf
