dcop class

Hello,

I can't find even a single piece of code that will demonstrate dcop usage.

Here they explain it, but I want to see some full example if possible
http://developer.kde.org/documentation/l…p.html#sec2.2.2

Anyone knows where I can find some?


p.s.
All I need is calling some routine of another application through dcop interface.
In bash I would do it like that:
dcop kicker kicker restart

RE: dcop class

Look at KDE. Since the source is open, you can download and look at some of the apps there. I know that a proper article/tutorial would be better, but the source is an option.

It is basically like this:

- create KApplication instance
- get its DCOP client
- use the client's call method

Note that the function string also includes the type information about the parameters, for example "foo(QString, int)"
