[maemo-developers] GtkWidget* handler from QWidget

[From: Naikel Aparicio]

Not really.

Those are the banners and notes, as you can see in screenshots in http://doc.qt.nokia.com/qt-maemo-4.6/maemo5-informationbox.html

What I want is the notification bubble.  Sadly anyway I just found libhildon-plugins-notify-sv.so didn’t implement correctly the org.freedesktop.Notifications notifications.  Maemo will only attach the notifications depending on the hint category to a predefined program, that is Modest for email, Conversations for IM/chat, etc.  It’s not customizable.  If you don’t set a category hint in your notification the daemon simply ignores everything and shows a notification that is totally useless with no sound, no LED alert, no vibration, no attachment to another widget and most importantly: it never updates itself.

That means if you write your own email client, you can’t create notifications that are attached to it; if you set the category “email-message” it will always be attached to modest.  When I say “attach” is that the notification belongs to the same widget and it doesn’t appear as a new window, it appears as if it were the same window than the application that generated it.

The maemo5 module has the notification stuff. Check if it does what you need

Question to my fellow developers:
I want to attach a Maemo native notification (those orange bubbles) to a QWidget.  Using GLIB, it’s easy;  you call notify_notification_attach_to_widget or add a hint with “attach-widget”.
The thing is in orderto do that you need the GtkWidget* handler of the window, and all I got is a QWidget.  Is there a way do it?
Thanks in advance,
