Class Notify

Object
  org.gnome.glib.Glib
      org.gnome.notify.Notify

public final class Notify
extends Glib

Notification system initialization point. A notification enabled program written with java-gnome will boil down to this:

 public class ExampleNotificationApp
   
     public static void main(String[] args) {
         Gtk.init(args);
         Notify.init("example-app");
           
         // build user interface
         
         // create and display notifications for application events
           
         Gtk.main();
     }
 }
 

The meat of this library is the Notification class; see there.
