Re: [Valgrind-valkyrie-dev] Valkyrie status

[Cerion Armour-B. <ce...@ke...>]

Amit,

I forgot it was you who was looking into the port to QT4.
How's that going?

I believe it may be a fair bit of work, and we may well want to take advantage 
of lessons learnt from the first version, and take it a step further...

We really need to think about requirements and useability with respect to 
Cachegrind, Helgrind, as well as Memcheck, and have all that clear before we 
just simply port it...

We need to hear from the other users out there what they love/hate/would like 
to see, etc...

Valgrind developers may be interested in adding xml support for other tools, 
and/or other functionality to valgrind to make the interface simpler...

We also need version control on a central repo. Do you already have something 
setup, or shall we set this up on the current svn server? 

What's the current state of play?
Regards,
Cerion
