Status
------

This change has been marked as submitted.


Review request for KDE Frameworks and Plasma.


Changes
-------

Submitted with commit 5ce8fe3462c2d40dcf8dea07bb760f918289df7c by Aleix Pol to branch \
master.


Repository: kpackage


Description
-------

In plasma-framework internally we use a QJsonObject for reading the metadata. \
Providing the metadata in desktop only makes the system have to parse \
metadata.desktop and then convert it internally into a QJsonObject. Furthermore, to \
do so we use a desktop file parser that is not very performant (at least in \
comparison to KConfig's).

As part of #129102, we made sure that plasma supports `metadata.json`. This patch \
leverages it moving the weight of converting desktop to json at compile time.

It could even make sense to convert to binary json as well, I wonder whether that \
would improve at all.


Diffs
-----

  KF5PackageMacros.cmake 335fc81 

Diff: https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/129103/diff/


Testing
-------

Ran RR 129102 without any metdata.desktop files on my system.

Nope, hold the ship its, still needs work.


Thanks,

Aleix Pol Gonzalez
