[Gtk-sharp-list] TrayIcon on Windows

[Phillip Dyer]

Thomas,
   
    I created a system tray icon using these:

    ***********************************************
        [DllImport("shell32.Dll")] private static extern bool 
Shell_NotifyIcon(NotifyCommand cmd, ref NotifyIconData data);

        [DllImport("user32.Dll")] private static extern System.IntPtr 
LoadImage(System.IntPtr hinst,string lpszName,ImageFlags Iflags,int 
cxDesired,int cyDesired,FuLoadFlags Lflags);

        [DllImport("user32.Dll")] private static extern bool 
DestroyIcon(System.IntPtr hIcon);

    ************************************************

    I hope someone else has a better way of creating it, as I had to use 
WinForms to create a hidden window and attach it to, and I don't have a 
proper right-click menu set up on my tray icon.

Good Luck,

-Phil
