30 * @short_description: User Notifications (pop up messages)
33 * #GNotification is a mechanism for creating a notification to be shown
34 * to the user -- typically as a pop-up notification presented by the
35 * desktop environment shell.
37 * The key difference between #GNotification and other similar APIs is
38 * that, if supported by the desktop environment, notifications sent
39 * with #GNotification will persist after the application has exited,
40 * and even across system reboots.
42 * Since the user may click on a notification while the application is
43 * not running, applications using #GNotification should be able to be
44 * started as a D-Bus service, using #GApplication.
46 * User interaction with a notification (either the default action, or
47 * buttons) must be associated with actions on the application (ie:
48 * "app." actions). It is not possible to route user interaction
49 * through the notification itself, because the object will not exist if
50 * the application is autostarted as a result of a notification being
53 * A notification can be sent with g_application_send_notification().
61 * This structure type is private and should only be accessed using the
