Hi,
i tried a lot to understand how the Menu is created.Actually i put a
message box to check the menu name being added....i was able to track for
the 'Parent' Menus (Service Groups)(i.e);Accessories,Development etc.,
When i press the KMenu Button, the first things added in the menu are these
'Parents'.Then what happens when i move my mouse pointer to one of these
'Parents', their children gets added.I think am right till now.Now am able
to explain till this.But how are these added?..Because, am seriously
concerned with retrieving the 'Children' rather then 'Parent'.And how are
these correctly associated with their parents?..
when i check the value of "relPath_" in the "doInitialize" funtion with a
message box,
*************code***********************
// We ask KSycoca to give us all services (sorted).
KServiceGroup::Ptr root = KServiceGroup::group(relPath_);
*************code**************************
i get empty string displayed!..then how is this retriving the 'Parents'??
i would be happy if my friends could help me out...
thanks in advance..
with regards,
C.C.Chakkaradeep
