<p>Hi Dylan,<br>
</p>
<p>From QML, the easiest way is probably to monitor
/run/state/providers/connman/Internet/NetworkState and
/run/state/providers/connman/Internet/NetworkType with
ContextProperty object. Google for "qml contextkit
contextproperty" to find some examples. That way, statefs monitors
connman state for you and you monitor statefs.<br>
</p>
<p>You can achieve the same result by directly monitoring the
connman state over D-Bus. Then libconnman-qt is your friend. It's
a C++ library with a QML plugin (MeeGo.Connman). That requires a
bit more code but takes statefs out of the picture.</p>
<p>There are also Qt network configuration APIs but those are even
more complicated and not all of those might work the way you would
expect them to work. But this is the most platform-independent API
in case if that is important for you (probably not). Internally it
also talks to connman.<br>
</p>
<p>Connection selector has a D-Bus API which is easy enough to
figure out with dbus-monitor. However it's not an official API and
it's more or less guaranteed to change over time and break your
app. Think twice before starting to use it.<br>
</p>
<p>Cheers,<br>

<div>Hi Sailors,<br>
</div>
<div><br>
For my app Sailfinder I have received a bug report about the
network connection. When switching between mobile data &
WiFi the app misbehaves.</div>
<div><br>
I want to detect the current network state to avoid thsi
problem. I thought of several possibilities:</div>
<ul>
<li>
<div>Ping everytime to my website before doing other requests
(expensive, better not).<br>
</div>
</li>
<li>Use MCE module which expose the network states in a file
(that's what I found on the sailfishos.org website, no more
extra information). This option is the one I want to try :)<br>
</li>
<li>
<div>...<br>
</div>
</li>
</ul>
<p>And if network isn't available I want to show the network
connection dialog but I haven't find any information about it.
Can someone help me with it? If possible, in a Harbour way since
Sailfinder is also available in the Jolla Store.<br>
</p>
<div>Kind regards,<br>
