hey all...

i just added this to the KSystemTray API:

/**
  * A convenience function to use when a quit is launched from the system=20
tray. Provides
     * a consistent set of verbage for the user and should be used by all=20
system tray using
     * apps for this consistency.
     * @return returns true if the user confirms the quit, or false if they=
=20
cancel it
     * @since 3.4
     */
    bool confirmQuit();

if your app ships with KDE 3.4 and has a systemtray icon and it doesn't hav=
e a=20
quit confirmation (e.g. it isn't an editor with a "Save this file?"=20
confirmation), it would be good to modified your app to use confirmQuit()=20
whenever a quit is requested via the system tray icon. (note: if you pass n=
o=20
parent to the system tray, then it gets handled automatically by KSystemTra=
y)

e.g.:

connect(m_systemTray, SIGNAL(quitSelected()), SLOT(systemTrayQuit()));

void MyCoolApp::systemTrayQuit()
{
	if (m_systemTray->confirmQuit())
	{
		kapp->closeAllWindows(); // or however your app closes
	}
}

i'm trying to avoid any more "it's too easy to quit from the system tray" b=
ugs=20
from people who aren't careful with their mouse.
