[digiKam-users] convert2jpg batch queue tool name change between DK6 and 6.1 erase preset.

[Photonoxx]

Hi,

I don't know if it's normal, but it seems some tool name of the batch queue manager have changed between v6.0 and v6.1.

Due to this change, I've lost my Batch preset (it could be nice if a backup could be done before Digikam delete these preset (Digikam inform the preset are deleted due to tool version conflict or some thing like that but don't made backup)) because they use the convert2jpg tool which now is named ConvertToJpg.

Does somebody could confirm the "ConvertToJpg" name is definitive or if I need to backup my batchqueue preset file with the future version because the new name is not intentional ?

Thanks

Nicolas

Hi,

This kind of change is due to port all BQM tools as the new Plugins infrastructure. So there is new changes to process here in the future.

And yes, renaming these tool strings in XML queue settings file saved in your home directory will fix your problem.

Does these names changes are referenced somewhere to avoid having to look for which tool have been renamed or not ?

Look in source code :

For 6.0.0, BQM tool ConvertToJPEG is declared here :

https://cgit.kde.org/digikam.git/tree/core/utilities/queuemanager/tools/convert/convert2jpeg.cpp?h=v6.0.0#n46

For 6.1.0 :

https://cgit.kde.org/digikam.git/tree/core/dplugins/bqm/convert/converttojpeg/converttojpeg.cpp?h=v6.1.0#n46

It's the same...

But, this tool implementation is encapsulated in a plugin container for 6.1.0 :

https://cgit.kde.org/digikam.git/tree/core/dplugins/bqm/convert/converttojpeg/converttojpegplugin.cpp?h=v6.1.0#n54

... which is translated. But this one must not be used to store queue setting in XML file.

So i don't undestand. Which new name do you have for this tool exactly ?

In 6.0 convert2jpeg is the name used in xml

In 6.1 converttojpeg is the name used in xml

it's just "to" instead of "2"
