No, this is a misunderstanding I think. qni-qt is for Qt4 applications to show "Status Notifier Items" (in short "SNI"). It doesn't matter if the SNI host is even using Qt. The QPA für Qt5 includes that already, so a Qt5 application can use SNI out of the box. In your case we have a Java application. Unless it or the Java Class Library it uses have Qt in use for platform integration, then neither sni-qt nor the QPA have anything to do here. > Could anyone provide an Java example code that shows SNI / TrayIcon on QT >= > 5.4 (using OpenJDK 7 or 8) ? I could and would amend my application. My, quite limited, understanding of SNI is that the communication between application and SNI host happens via D-Bus [1]. If there is currently no nice wrapper for Java, you might have to use D-Bus via the D-Bus Java bindings directly. Cheers, Kevin [1] http://www.notmart.org/misc/statusnotifieritem/ might not be the most current version, just came up first when googling
