public class Notification : Object

A passive pop-up notification.

Notification represents a passive pop-up notification. It can contain summary text, body text, and an icon, as well as hints specifying how the notification should be presented. The notification is rendered by a notification daemon, and may present the notification in any number of ways. As such, there is a clear separation of content and presentation, and this API enforces that.
