AlertService Class Reference
[QtMediaModule, QtMediaModule]

Detailed Description

The AlertService class provides the Alert service.

The Alert service enables applications to sound the audible system alert. Normally an application will use Qtopia::soundAlarm() for this.

The Alert service is typically supplied by the AlertServiceTask task in the Qt Extended server, but the system integrator may change the provider of this service if the device has special hardware (e.g. a buzzer or vibration system) that can alert the user.

This class is part of the Qt Extended server and cannot be used by other Qt Extended applications.

See also Qtopia::soundAlarm().
