Not sure about any doc on this :( But basically it works as Havoc suggested: . each app was meant to implement a top_application method (though in practice none does, but it doesn't really matter) . the desktop file references both an Exec (for legacy) and a X-Service, which is the service it register . wherever an app is launched (application menu, mime-handling library ...), if the .desktop file has this X-Service, the method is called (via osso_rpc_run). If not it falls back to Exec. . the app registers the service it declares on startup, and exit if the name is already owned. -- Johan Bilien <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
