I thought the DBus initialization was used to allow only one intsnace of your program to be run, which is good on a handheld device ... I think you should let the user decide if he wants to put a shortcut on his desktop or not ? Fred Le 10/08/2010 17:29, Naresh Mehta a écrit : Hi All,

You simply have to create a .desktop file associated with your program (don't forget to initialize dbus session with osso_init) users wil then be able to start your program via the menu and to add a shortcut on their desktop. you can check the developper documentation Fred Le 10/08/2010
