PROFILE

Hillwood Yang

Over six months, this developer focused on enhancing build stability and cross-version compatibility for key Deepin desktop components, including linuxdeepin/dde-file-manager, dde-daemon, dtkwidget, dde-control-center, and dde-shell. They addressed complex build failures by updating CMake configurations, migrating regex handling from PCRE1 to PCRE2, and implementing GCC 15 and Qt 6.10+ compatibility fixes. Their work involved C, C++, and CMake, with a strong emphasis on system programming and the Qt framework. By resolving template deduction issues and adapting to evolving APIs, they reduced maintenance overhead and ensured reliable builds across diverse environments and continuous integration pipelines.

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.
