[Qt-interest] Assistant and sqlite based help files.

[Alex Kides]

Hi,
 
Is it possible to stop the assitant from creating/copying or sqlite
based cache files?
i.e. the assistant on windows and unix are creating files in the local
settings area and in the users home directory on unix.  e.g.
C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Application Data\<blah>
and on unix ~/.local/share/data/<blah>.
 
The problem is that on HPUX and older nfs (v3) sqlite does not work
properly (unable to create lock files) - if a user has their home
directory in a shared disk (which is a distinct possibility on unixy
platforms), then the help won't work.
 
The only work around i can see so far is to change the assisant to
ensure said cache files are read only and to modify the queries to
specify the relevant pragma.  see
http://www.nabble.com/Sqlite3-lock-issue-with-NFS-and-read-only-queries-
td20576802.html.
 
On a similar note - has anyone managed to get the qtwebkit to work on
hpux using g++ 4.2?  assistant with webkit dies with a bus error (in
process of building a debug build, but it occurs with both 4.4.1 and
4.5.0).
