319 A small example on how to use AlarmServer.
320
321 First we need to connect a slot the AppMessage QCOP call. appMessage
322 will be emitted if QPE/Application/appname gets called.
323
324 \code
325 TestApp::TestApp(QWidget *parent, const char* name, WFlags fl )
326 : QMainWindow(parent,name,fl){
327 connect(qApp,SIGNAL(appMessage(const QCString&,const QByteArray&)),
328 this,SLOT(slotAppMessage(const QCString&,const QByteArray&)));
329 }
330 \endcode
331
332 To add / delete an alarm, you can use the static method AlarmServer::addAlarm and
333 AlarmServer::deleteAlarm. Note that an old (expired) alarm will automatically be deleted
334 from the alarmserver list, but a change in timing will have the effect, that both
335 alarms will be emitted. So if you change an Alarm be sure to delete the old one!
336 @see addAlarm
337
338 \code
339 QDateTime oldDt = oldAlarmDateTime();
340 QPEApplication::execDialog(ourDlg);
341 QDateTime newDt = ourDlg->dateTime();
342 if(newDt == oldDt ) return;
343 @slash* code is missing for unsetting an alarm *@slash
344
345 AlarmServer::deleteAlarm(oldDt,"QPE/Application/appname","checkAlarm(QDateTime,int)",0);
346 AlarmServer::addAlarm( newDt,"QPE/AlarmServer/appname","checkAlarm(QDateTime,int)",0);
347
348 \endcode
349
350 Now once the Alarm is emitted you need to check the appMessage and then do what you want.
351 \code
352 void TestApp::slotAppMessage(const QCString& str, const QByteArray& ar ){
353 QDataStream stream(ar,IO_ReadOnly);
354 if(str == "checkAlarm(QDateTime,int)" ){
355 QDateTime dt;
356 int a;
357 stream >> dt >> a;
358 // fire up alarm
359 }
360 }
