[maemo-developers] desktop/home plugins 2nd round

[From: Collin R. Mulliner]

Hi Again,

ok maybe it was not obvious but I'm kind of stuck with home applet
development/debugging. So here some questions:

1) Are home plugins supposed to work in scratchbox/Xephyr? If yes, is 
   there a trick?

2) Has anybody written a home plugin for Maemo 4.x and has published 
   the source?

3) Is there any better documentation/howto for home plugins then the 
   one in the wiki, because it somehow is not very complete? Looking at 
   the webshortcut plugin I see some stuff not mentioned in the howto.

thanks ... Collin

I'm trying to get my home plugin (Maemo 4.x style) to work but no luck
so far. I'm trying to get it working using Xephyr and scratchbox but all
I see is a black box (in the size of my plugin). The plugin code seems
to run (I see printfs). But without the widget being shown there is not
much I can test. On the device it is even worse. The plugin is not even
loaded. I carefully followed the dummy plugin. I also tryed to run the
dummy plugin but I get the same result - just a black box.
