the feasibility of integrating python plugins with Marble has been researched.

This task is about the very first step towards having python plugins integrated with Marble:

  • Check http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/Marble/Plugins
  • Check the code of existing simple plugins like src/plugins/render/atmosphere
  • Check http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/Marble#Online_Services for another more complex example of plugin code
  • Implement a basic C++ plugin that is successfully found and loaded into Marble. The plugin should be named PythonIntegrationPlugin
  • Check that the plugin is successfully loaded when running
