you need to have a .desktop file for your app. Take a look at other apps 
.desktop files for examples.

Add the following in Makefile.am (replace "kdevelop" with your app name and 
"Development" with the subfolder where your app should go to):

data_DATA = kdevelop.desktop
datadir = $(kde_appsdir)/Development
