I'm trying to enable displaying the icon of a Notification in the
notifications Plugin. Therefor I need to access the payload, which is
the image data in PNG format and store it in a QPixmap (or an QByteArray
from where the QPixmap will load the data).

What surprises me is that payload->size() gives me 0 when
networkpackage.payloadSize() gives me the correct size (payload is of
type QSharedPointer<QIODevice>).

I had an almost working solution using FiletransferJob, but it only
worked the second time a notification was send, probably due to the
FileTransferJob working asynchronously (I guess?). Now I'm trying not to
use files at all and directly copying the payload data to the QPixmap

Thanks for your help
