Qt Widgets Improvement (was: Help)

[Marcus Müller]

Hi Rohit,

I had to change the subject line of your email - the mailing list was automatically 
moderating that away :) Next time, a slightly more descriptive subject line would help 
avoid that! (but you had no possible way of knowing that, so nothing about this is your 
fault.)

I assume we're talking GSoC? So, you're referring to 
https://wiki.gnuradio.org/index.php?title=GSoCIdeas#QT_Widgets_Improvements ?

So, the first thing to do is always making yourself be not only superficially familiar 
with the tools you're planning to improve, but having an intimate understanding in how you 
they leave room for improvement.
Is there some GNU Radio flow graph that you've built yourself, where you could use one of 
the proposed improvements/additions? That would be a great starting point!

Otherwise, you will sooner or later need to be familiar with the gr-qtqui source code. 
It's C++, but intermingling a lot of Qt "language style" with GNU Radio style. So, 
building your own GNU Radio where you make a "toy" modification, would give you the 
ability to move forward with doing that.

Best regards,
Marcus
