the main Gtk struct as a void*

setDesktop
void setDesktop(int desktop)

Sets the workspace on which applications will be launched when using this context when running under a window manager that supports multiple workspaces, as described in the Extended Window Manager Hints. When the workspace is not specified or desktop is set to -1, it is up to the window manager to pick one, typically it will be the current workspace. Since 2.14

setDisplay
void setDisplay(Display display)

Warning gdk_app_launch_context_set_display has been deprecated since version 3.0 and should not be used in newly-written code. Use gdk_display_get_app_launch_context() instead Sets the display on which applications will be launched when using this context. See also gdk_app_launch_context_set_screen(). Since 2.14

setIcon
void setIcon(IconIF icon)

Sets the icon for applications that are launched with this context. Window Managers can use this information when displaying startup notification. See also gdk_app_launch_context_set_icon_name(). Since 2.14

setIconName
void setIconName(string iconName)

Sets the icon for applications that are launched with this context. The icon_name will be interpreted in the same way as the Icon field in desktop files. See also gdk_app_launch_context_set_icon(). If both icon and icon_name are set, the icon_name takes priority. If neither icon or icon_name is set, the icon is taken from either the file that is passed to launched application or from the GAppInfo for the launched application itself. Since 2.14

setScreen
void setScreen(Screen screen)

Sets the screen on which applications will be launched when using this context. See also gdk_app_launch_context_set_display(). If both screen and display are set, the screen takes priority. If neither screen or display are set, the default screen and display are used. Since 2.14

setStruct
void setStruct(GObject* obj)
Undocumented in source. Be warned that the author may not have intended to support it.
setTimestamp
void setTimestamp(uint timestamp)

Sets the timestamp of context. The timestamp should ideally be taken from the event that triggered the launch. Window managers can use this information to avoid moving the focus to the newly launched application when the user is busy typing in another window. This is also known as 'focus stealing prevention'. Since 2.14
