PROFILE

Hillwood Yang

Over five months, this developer focused on enhancing build stability and cross-version compatibility for key Deepin desktop components, notably linuxdeepin/dde-file-manager. They migrated regex handling from PCRE1 to PCRE2, updated CMake configurations to resolve missing library links, and implemented fixes for GCC 15 and Qt 6.10+ compatibility. Their work included runtime meta-type registration in C++ to address template deduction issues and adjustments to Qt widget logic for consistent UI behavior across versions. Using C, C++, and CMake, they prioritized maintainability and future-proofing, reducing build failures and ensuring smoother CI, packaging, and release processes across multiple repositories and environments.

February 2026 performance focused on stability and cross-version compatibility in key Deepin desktop components. In linuxdeepin/dde-file-manager, I resolved a C++15 template deduction build break by removing static Q_DECLARE_METATYPE declarations from headers and moving meta-type registration to runtime, enabling compilation with complex nested types (commit 4e20c78324af277ae9f97bcd164a933e79578bff). In linuxdeepin/dtkwidget, I fixed DTabBar compatibility for Qt 6.10.2 by updating tab button positioning to rely on dragOffset for Qt 6.10.2+ while preserving behavior for older versions (commit 561141f750344f6713b7d2d022bb5d24585a29aa). These changes improve cross-version stability, reduce maintenance burden, and ensure consistent UI behavior across Qt versions.

December 2025: Maintained build health for dde-control-center by implementing a Qt 6.10+ compatibility fix. This work ensures the project builds reliably on Qt 6.10 and newer, reducing CI/build interruptions and enabling smoother releases. The change adds an explicit Qt6QuickPrivate requirement in CMakeLists to align with Qt6 Quick Private API changes, addressing compatibility gaps and future-proofing the build.

October 2025 β€” LinuxDeepin DDE File Manager: Qt 6.10 Build Compatibility Fix. Implemented essential build-system updates to support Qt 6.10+, ensuring correct locating and linking of GUI and Widget private headers. This reduces breakages with newer Qt versions and improves downstream packaging readiness.
