Launcher Icon

I'm looking for a class that will take a .desktop file (application launcher) and display an icon that I can click. Does anyone know if it exists?

Basically I want something like the icons in the panel (Home, Konqueror, etc. those icons).

Hmm, you could use KDesktopFile to read the file and then use the string from readIcon() to load the pixmap with KIconLoader.
You can then display the icon for example on a QPushButton.
