[Gtk-sharp-list] Help with dynamically adding to a Menu - what am I doing wrong

[alanb]

My program uses Monodevelop.Dock and I want to add all open Dockitems to a
menu on the Mainwindow Menubar. So I created an action called WindowsAction
with the idea of adding all the labels of my Docked windows to this.
Ultimately I want to be able to open / close dock items by clicking on an
item in this list. The code I wrote is shown below but does not work,
nothing is added to the action.

void setWindowChoices()
{
	Widget mnu = WindowsAction.CreateMenu();
	foreach(DockItem di in df.GetItems())
	{
		MenuItem mnuitm = (MenuItem)WindowsAction.CreateMenuItem();
		mnuitm.Name = di.Label;
		mnuitm.Visible = true;
		mnuitm.Sensitive = (di.Status == DockItemStatus.Dockable);
	}
}

Because WindowsAction has no ShowAll or Show functionality I assumed that
CreateMenu() added and attached a menu to the Action and that everything I
added to that menu would be automatically shown. But that doesnt seem to be
the case so I would appreciate any help.

Thanks
Alan
