Hapy new year all,
I have been working on this, without much accomplished. I have code
that compiles and runs, with the menu showing up, but can't get the
action to be activated when the menu itme is clicked.
AI'v also noticed that if I append a new menu item with only a label,
the menu item is enabled, but if I append a menu item with label and
action the menu item is disabled.
I haven't been able to avoid this situation. Any ideas??

code:
include "gui.h"
#include <iostream>
namespace geode
{
//CCCCCC GUI CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC
Gui::Gui()
: m_Box(), //Gtk::ORIENTATION_VERTICAL),
mbut1()
{
set_title("menu test");
set_default_size(200, 200);
mbut1.set_label("button 1");
add(m_Box);
m_Box.pack_start(mbut1);
cout << "gui 0:" << endl;
giomenu = Gio::Menu::create();
menumodel = giomenu;
gtkmenu = new Gtk::Menu( giomenu);
cout << "gui 1:" << endl;
act_group = Gio::SimpleActionGroup::create();
act_group->add_action("FIRST",
sigc::mem_fun(*this, &Gui::on_action));
act_group->add_action("SECOND",
sigc::mem_fun(*this, &Gui::on_action));
act_group->add_action("THIRD",
sigc::mem_fun(*this, &Gui::on_action));
cout << "gui 2:" << endl;
giomenu->append("FIRST");
giomenu->append("SECOND");
giomenu->append( "THIRD", "THIRD");
cout << "gui 3:" << endl;
mbut1.set_menu(*gtkmenu);
show_all();
}
Gui::~Gui()
{ }
