launched


Description:

[ Version ( since = "2.36" ) ]
public virtual signal void launched (AppInfo info, Variant platform_data)

The launched signal is emitted when a AppInfo is successfully launched.

Because a launch operation may involve spawning multiple instances of the target application, you should expect this signal to be emitted multiple times, one time for each spawned instance.

The platform_data is an GVariant dictionary mapping strings to variants (ie `a{sv}`), which contains additional, platform-specific data about this launch. On UNIX, at least the `pid` and `startup-notification-id` keys will be present.

Since 2.72 the `pid` may be 0 if the process id wasn't known (for example if the process was launched via D-Bus). The `pid` may not be set at all in subsequent releases.

On Windows, `pid` is guaranteed to be valid only for the duration of the launched signal emission; after the signal is emitted, GLib will call close_pid. If you need to keep the Pid after the signal has been emitted, then you can duplicate `pid` using `DuplicateHandle( )`.

Parameters:

info

the AppInfo that was just launched

platform_data

additional platform-specific data for this launch
