I have to create a simple application that displays an icon in the systray and a menu from which you can do some operations. the problem is that statusicon is closed immediately after creation. What's missing? I put the sleep to make sure it was created. for 3 seconds something appears in systray, even if it is not the icon that I set.
Init.cc
#include <gtkmm/main.h>
#include "Tray.h"
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
Gtk::Main kit(argc, argv);
printf("Statuicon starting\n");
Tray tray;
printf("Statuicon started\n");
return 0;
}
Tray.cc
#include "Tray.h"
Tray::Tray() {
set(Gtk::Stock::OK);
signal_activate().connect(sigc::mem_fun(*this, &Tray::on_statusicon_activated));
signal_popup_menu().connect(sigc::mem_fun(*this, &Tray::on_statusicon_popup));
set_visible(true);
printf("Statusicon created\n");
sleep(3);
}
Tray::~Tray() {}
void Tray::on_statusicon_popup(guint button, guint activate_time) {
printf("popup!");
}
void Tray::on_statusicon_activated() {
printf("active!");
}
Tray.h
