Iv looked into this and was using the same minimal template, The issue
still is I cant find a way to initialize the DBus adaptor without having a
main, I did follow the KDE4 DBus tutorials initially on getting the DBus to
work as KDE 5 has no DBus documentation yet for plasmoids.

Seems like a no go for plasmoid so launched it as a Qt5 Application
instead. https://github.com/AIIX/Mycroft-Ai-QtApplication

Thanks for replying tho i was running around in circles with getting the
main function to work.
