DCOP Problem

Hi,

i only wanna have an application which connects to the dcop server and use a function an application offers me.

Source code

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
 KApplication app(argc, argv, "app");
 DCOPClient *client = kapp->dcopClient();
  if(client->attach() == false) {
   qDebug("no connection");
  }
   else {
    qDebug("CONNECTED");
   }
   bool ok = client->send("kicker", "app", "restart()", QByteArray());
    if(ok) {
     qDebug("OKAY");
   }
   KMainWindow *mainWin = new simpledcop();
   app.setMainWidget( mainWin );
   mainWin->show();
  
   return app.exec();
}

My Applications echoes "Connected" and "OKAY" so there seems to be another bug...

RE: DCOP Problem

Have you checked that kicker restarts with that directive when using kdcop?

I think you must call

Source code

 
1

client ->registerAs("myapp");

after the attach()-call.

I found this link btw:

Are you sure that you checked your calling with kdcop?

It works for me if I use

client->send("kicker", "kicker", "restart()", QByteArray());

I think f_edemar was hinting at the second parameter of the call.
"app" is not very likely a DCOP interface of kicker, at least not here on 3.1
