Marco Martin 462ad8a6ca support for C++ applets
make possible for an applet to be implemented in c++ but still
have the qml package with the usual api, this was supposed to
be supported from the beginning.

if a c++ applet has been loaded, make available the property
plasmoid.nativeInterface to the qml part, exposing the subclasses
Applet instance with all eventual extra propertiels/slots.

if no c++ plugin is present, appletInterface will be dummy/not available

this (besides limiting a bit the qml import rabbit procreation)
makes available some things not available to normal private imports:
* access to applet config() to save more complex things compared to what kconfigxt allows
  or save/load stuff from the c++ part
* access to containment()/corona(), may be useful for containment implementations
* easier port for old very big applets such as comics/weather

Plasma Framework

The plasma framework provides the foundations that can be used to build a primary user interface, from graphical to logical components.

Introduction

The plasma framework provides the following:

  • QML components
  • A C++ library: libplasma
  • Script engines

QML components

org.kde.plasma.core

Bindings for libplasma functionality, such as DataEngine and FrameSvg, see @ref core.

org.kde.plasma.components

Graphical components for common items such as buttons, lineedits, tabbars and so on. Compatible subset of the MeeGo components used on the N9, see @ref plasmacomponents.

org.kde.plasma.extras

Extra graphical components that extend org.kde.plasma.components but are not in the standard api, see @ref plasmaextracomponents.

org.kde.plasma.plasmoid

Attached properties for manipulating the current applet or containment, see @ref libplasmaquick

libplasma

This C++ library provides:

  • rendering of SVG themes
  • loading of files from a certain filesystem structure: packages
  • data access through data engines
  • loading of the plugin structure of the workspace: containments and applets

See @ref libplasma.

Script engines

Provides support to create applets or containments in various scripting languages.
