Hi all,
I have a couple of questions about the usage of libnotify.
My application needs to send notifications and then don't care about
them anymore (Eg. just display a notification then ask the gnome
subsystem to automatically get rid of that).
I use the following code (please don't care about the fact I'm using a
void* instead of NotifyNotification* ... at the end of the day those are
C pointers):
notify_init("application_name");
...
void *notification = notify_notification_new("title", "message", 0, 0);
if (notification) {
notify_notification_set_timeout(notification, -1);
notify_notification_show(notification, 0);
g_object_unref(notification);
}
...
notify_uninit();
Is the above code correct to implement such behavior?
I mean, with this code (that is working fine - eg. notifications are
shown), am I sure that the g_object_unref(notification); will then force
the underlying gnome/notification daemon to take care and dispose the
notification properly once the timeout (default value -1) has expired?
Will it get rid of the memory allocated in the current process to
(locally) create the notification?
Do I have to use other functions to implement the set-display-n-forget
notifications?
Please note that these are the only GTK++ functions that I use; if I
have to use some other to properly perform the operation, feel free to
tell me.
I'm asking this because I want to be sure this is the proper way to
avoid memory leaks.
Thanks in advance,
Cheers,
Emanuele Oriani
