-spec addAction(This, Actionid, [Option]) -> boolean()
             when
                 This :: wxNotificationMessage(),
                 Actionid :: integer(),
                 Option :: {label, unicode:chardata()}.

Add an action to the notification.

If supported by the implementation this are usually buttons in the notification selectable by the user.

Return: false if the current implementation or OS version does not support actions in notifications.

Since: 3.1.0

-spec close(This) -> boolean() when This :: wxNotificationMessage().

Hides the notification.

Returns true if it was hidden or false if it couldn't be done (e.g. on some systems automatically hidden notifications can't be hidden manually).

-spec destroy(This :: wxNotificationMessage()) -> ok.

Destructor does not hide the notification.

The notification can continue to be shown even after the C++ object was destroyed, call close/1 explicitly if it needs to be hidden.

-spec mSWUseToasts([Option]) -> boolean()
                when Option :: {shortcutPath, unicode:chardata()} | {appId, unicode:chardata()}.

Enables toast notifications available since Windows 8 and suppresses the additional icon in the notification area on Windows 10.

Toast notifications require a shortcut to the application in the start menu. The start menu shortcut needs to contain an Application User Model ID. It is recommended that the applications setup creates the shortcut and the application specifies the setup created shortcut in shortcutPath. A call to this method will verify (and if necessary modify) the shortcut before enabling toast notifications.

Return: false if toast notifications could not be enabled.

-spec new() -> wxNotificationMessage().

Default constructor, use setParent/2, setTitle/2 and setMessage/2 to initialize the object before showing it.

-spec new(Title, [Option]) -> wxNotificationMessage()
       when
           Title :: unicode:chardata(),
           Option ::
               {message, unicode:chardata()} | {parent, wxWindow:wxWindow()} | {flags, integer()}.

Create a notification object with the given attributes.

See setTitle/2, setMessage/2, setParent/2 and setFlags/2 for the description of the corresponding parameters.

-spec setFlags(This, Flags) -> ok when This :: wxNotificationMessage(), Flags :: integer().

This parameter can be currently used to specify the icon to show in the notification.

Valid values are wxICON_INFORMATION, wxICON_WARNING and wxICON_ERROR (notice that wxICON_QUESTION is not allowed here). Some implementations of this class may not support the icons.

See: setIcon/2

-spec setIcon(This, Icon) -> ok when This :: wxNotificationMessage(), Icon :: wxIcon:wxIcon().

Specify a custom icon to be displayed in the notification.

Some implementations of this class may not support custom icons.

See: setFlags/2

Since: 3.1.0

-spec setMessage(This, Message) -> ok
              when This :: wxNotificationMessage(), Message :: unicode:chardata().

Set the main text of the notification.

This should be a more detailed description than the title but still limited to reasonable length (not more than 256 characters).

-spec setParent(This, Parent) -> ok when This :: wxNotificationMessage(), Parent :: wxWindow:wxWindow().

Set the parent for this notification: the notification will be associated with the top level parent of this window or, if this method is not called, with the main application window by default.

-spec setTitle(This, Title) -> ok when This :: wxNotificationMessage(), Title :: unicode:chardata().

Set the title, it must be a concise string (not more than 64 characters), use setMessage/2 to give the user more details.

-spec show(This, [Option]) -> boolean()
        when This :: wxNotificationMessage(), Option :: {timeout, integer()}.

Show the notification to the user and hides it after timeout seconds are elapsed.

Special values Timeout_Auto and Timeout_Never can be used here, notice that you shouldn't rely on timeout being exactly respected because the current platform may only support default timeout value and also because the user may be able to close the notification.

Note: When using native notifications in wxGTK, the timeout is ignored for the notifications with wxICON_WARNING or wxICON_ERROR flags, they always remain shown unless they're explicitly hidden by the user, i.e. behave as if Timeout_Auto were given.

Return: false if an error occurred.

-spec useTaskBarIcon(Icon) -> wxTaskBarIcon:wxTaskBarIcon() when Icon :: wxTaskBarIcon:wxTaskBarIcon().

If the application already uses a wxTaskBarIcon, it should be connected to notifications by using this method.

This has no effect if toast notifications are used.

Return: the task bar icon which was used previously (may be NULL)
