Hi, My requirement is to create a Qt based backend service that runs when the device boots and call a function periodically (say every 15 minutes). Very similar to a cron tab. So far I could find QDBus and QtMobility service framework modules that shows how to implement a service. It is not clear from the documentation weather these services can be run as daemons or the service die after serving the client request. Can somebody provide a qt way of creating service that runs as daemon and doesn't hurt device battery? Any example projects or code snippets would be much appreciated. Thanks, Sateesh.
