You can register a D-Bus name for your application and terminate it if that name is already taken.
I'm not sure if the background running instance will pop to front or if you have to add few lines to handle sending and receiving dbus messages to tell that other instance to pop up. Or maybe there's some other nifty way to do app up popping.

My application has a single-app instance logic in it. The source is browsable from the link in my sig.
I have made it the way it is so that it works without dbus dependencies, because I need it to work in Windows as well.

In Qt you would need to do something like this to make sure the window is visible/active.
Code:
pMainWindow->show();
pMainWindow->activateWindow();
pMainWindow->raise();

p.s. I haven't tested myself... I use DBus on my application to check for other instances.

In hildon, you register a dbus service for your application and list its name in the desktop file. The file manager/panel will use dbus activation to notify your program of the file names etc, so your application will only be running once.

I want to limit my application to one instance
so if the user try to launch the application and it is already running in process it brings the process UI to front
