This is a continuing conversation from here.

I agree; this is exactly what I'm looking for, but... where can I find the code?

Oh, just to check that it wasn't done in the engine, I built the extremely old tablet-browser-ui-with-source (*gasp*)

What a bummer. I was sure that the browser would have some handle to a desktop menu item that would allow it to change the icon. Or I thought that it might send a dbus message, but I don't see the traffic using dbus-monitor. I noticed that there were some microb changes that seemed to move the dbus calls to rpc calls, but I haven't had any luck there either. Did you get your browser source from here?

I dove into the hildon-desktop and some of the hildon-application-manager code and I've found where they do this stuff for themselves. And I've also dumped the strings of browser.launch, but I've obviously yet to hone in on the application-level solution. I'm ready for a code example.

P.S: Nice work on that browser.

A fun exercise made possible by Bundyo and jmalonzo.
