Hi Felipe,
Thank you for this, something I've been VERY much wanting in lazarus was
trayicon support.
You are Welcome =)
Acctually, this was a preview witch should have only being sent to
Andrew. I took the address from an old talk we had, but that talk was on
the mailling list, so I end up sending the component to everyone!
You guys should wait a official stable release in about 1 or 2 days =)
It works well with Windows and Gtk1. Now I am working on Gtk2 support.
I won't create carbon support at this time, but it is built expecting a
Mac OS X.
A few quick questions though
1) Is it a component ? Visual ? Nonvisual ? I admit I've only had a cursory
glance at your sources, not a sufficient study yet.
You realle should not derive or instantiate the non-visual component,
use the SystrayIcon object instead. It is automatically created on
program startup, and this approach is required for future Mac OS X
support. The object is also Delphi-Compatible.
I visual wrapper around the object can be easely built.
> 2) Is there a README or a short howto available ?
I am working on a wiki page now.
Thanks. I created a package TrayIconLaz.lpk and added it to svn.
ummm ..... I really would have prefered to wait a little =)
I have much newer code on my PC, and the Licensing stuff is also
missing. The component is Modifyed-LGPL. I also want to ship it with
Gtk2 support.
There are some things witch must be taken care of. You can't just
register TTrayIcon because of Mac OS X future support. The visual
component must be a wrapper around the SystrayIcon object.
