You ever wanted to have an asynchronous notification? here it is:
Requires the libnotify and devel files...
It looks like:

which will (if no gadget or window is specified) pops up in the lower right corner

or like this if a gadget is specified (a WindowID will work too)

An example:

Code: Select all

	#NOTIFY_URGENCY_LOW         = 0;,		 /**< Low urgency.      */
	#NOTIFY_URGENCY_NORMAL   = 1;,	    /**< Normal urgency.   */
	#NOTIFY_URGENCY_CRITICAL   = 2;,       /**< Critical urgency. */

Procedure mycallback()
; if the notification is clicked somwhere, this code will be executed...
EndProcedure

pgm.s=ProgramFilename()
notify_init_(@pgm); necessary to init the notification server for your program
hwnd=OpenWindow(0,200,100,500,350,"")
CreateGadgetList(WindowID(0))
    ButtonGadget(1,10,10,100,30,"Test")
    mn=notify_show("titel","body",50,#NOTIFY_URGENCY_NORMAL,GadgetID(1)); the notification is added to a gadget
;     mn=notify_show("titel","body",50,2,0); use this line to see the difference
;if you need an action when the notification is clicked
    action.s="default"
    label.s="clicked"
    notify_add_action(mn,@action,@label,@mycallback(),0,0)
;---------------------
CloseGadgetList()
Repeat
    ev=WaitWindowEvent(1)
ForEver
End

and at least the lib:
http://home.arcor.de/x-linux/pure/notify/notify_lib (copy it to purebasic/purelibraries/userlibraries

and the source:
http://home.arcor.de/x-linux/pure/notify/notify_lib.pb

there is a further commant in the lib notify_close(*notify) which is not used in the example...

I guess, you can see how it works.. otherwise questions are welcome as well as suggestions and comments...

Thank you walker!
If someone knows what software Linux needs then you

I'm going to use that for my TeamSpeak clone for Linux, ok?

Thanks!

yes, why not.... feel free to use it ... that's the reason why I'd released it

and I'm happy if my work is used somewhere (so I know it wasn't wasted time

)
The libnotify-lib has much more possibillities than used for now (i.E a image in the notification and much more) and they will be integrated by time...
