Status
------

This change has been discarded.

Review request for KDE Software on Mac OS X, KDE Frameworks and Dario Freddi.

Repository: kidletime

Description
-------

I noticed that the KIdleTime example doesn't work properly on OS X, and that the \
plugin for OS X still uses the deprecated Carbon-based algorithm that I already \
patched for KDE4.

This patch is a work-in-progress (hence the qDebugs) update to use IOKit, IORegistry \
and CoreServices to do idle-time calculation as it should be done, and allow \
simulated user activity through a "less deprecated" function.

Diffs
-----

  src/plugins/osx/CMakeLists.txt e1b50b8 

Diff: https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/126078/diff/

Testing
-------

On OS X 10.9 with Qt 5.5.1 and frameworks 5.16.0 .

The example now works: when I set a QTimer with interval==0, the expected wait for \
user input (`resumingFromIdle` signal) works. However, I am getting a \
`stopCatchingIdleEvents` signal which means the application waits forever, without \
ever getting to compare idle time to the list of timeouts. I haven't been able to \
figure out where that signal comes from, nor why this doesn't happen on Linux.

Surely I'm missing something, but what?

Thanks,

René J.V. Bertin
