QSystemTrayIcon Problem

[SNZ]

Hi friends,


when i use QSystemTrayIcon example on Simulator, it's work. but if i compile for Symbain Device on Symbian Build section, i give error : 'QSystemTrayIcon' was not declared in this scope. But i was declared on mainwindow.h and also mainwindow.cpp -> #include "qsystemtrayicon.h"
i am using QT Creator 4.7.4. And i building for Symbian Belle

What should i do ?
(sorry for bad English)

1) mainwondow.h and mainwindow.cpp not in this example http://www.trinitydesktop.org/docs/qt4/desktop-systray.html
2) Qt include should look like #include <QSystemTrayIcon> not #include "QSystemTrayIcon.h"
3) show your code.

I can't understand what mean "mainwondow.h and mainwindow.cpp not in this example". i have only 1 header and 2 sources. Header is MainWindow.h
sources are mainwindow.cpp and main.cpp. i am creating a Mobile Qt Application.

My Code is:

QSystemTrayIcon *tray =new QSystemTrayIcon;
tray->setIcon(QIcon("emailRead.png"));
tray->show();

i included #include <QSystemTrayIcon> in Mainwindow.h also mainwindow.cpp. This code is working on simulator. But when i compile with symbian device give error "error: expected type-specifier before 'QSystemTrayIcon'" blinking on my code.

Thanx For Reply

you said:

What example? Since you are making everyone guess what you are talking about by
1) NOT showing any code
2) NOT giving any links to the code you are talking about
I made best effort guess that you were talking about the first example I found by googling.

Does symbian even have a tray/icon?

read my sig - give COMPLETE compilable code!

I am using QT Creator 4.7.4, QtSDK 1.2, i am creating an application for N8 with Symbian Belle SDK. I have an icon in my resources named "emailRead.png". My Code Template;


MainWindow.cpp

#include "mainwindow.h"
#include "ui_mainwindow.h"

#include <QtCore/QCoreApplication>
#include <QSystemTrayIcon>

ui->setupUi(this);
QSystemTrayIcon *tray = new QSystemTrayIcon(this);
tray->setIcon(QPixmap(":/emailRead.png"));
tray->show();

}

MainWindow::~MainWindow()
{
delete ui;
}

void MainWindow::setOrientation(ScreenOrientation orientation)
{
#if defined(Q_OS_SYMBIAN)

const QStringList v = QString::fromAscii(qVersion()).split(QLatin1Char(' .'));
if (v.count() == 3 && (v.at(0).toInt() << 16 | v.at(1).toInt() << 8 | v.at(2).toInt()) < 0x040702) {
qWarning("Screen orientation locking only supported with Qt 4.7.2 and above");
return;
}
}
