[Qgis-developer] Cad-Input for QGIS prototype

[Olivier Dalang]

Hi !

Ok the plugin is published in the repo (with a nice icon for the occasion
;) ) ! Champagne !

*Help on the API is more than welcome ! (I'm too much of a newbie in C++ to
do any serious work).*

*I'd say the C and D improvements suggested in the readme are the easiest
and could be a good point to start.*

*The E improvement (an UI improvement rather than API improvement) would be
welcome also (and be appreciated beyond the scope of this plugin).*

*I'm not sure if the A use useful, but it should be easy to implement and
may be useful to other plugins.*

*B would probably require more work (refactoring every single map tool,
unless we integrate the snapping hack as a default implementation, which I
think is a very bad idea).*
*I'd say before doing something like this, it could be a nice idea to think
about the point I made in my last post about a more rigid base class for
mapTools.*

Do you have a build environment? If so, while in the feature freeze period,
> we could work on a different branch.


*Yes, so testing another branch is no problem.*

By the way, was that a paid development or personal initiative?


*It is a personal initiative (i'm of course open to post-work sponsoring ;)
).*


Cheers,

Olivier
