Failing program

It looks like gtk_status_icon_set_name is not usable in a normal application, as the attached program demonstrates.  By the time gtk_status_icon_new() returns, its tray_icon member (on X11) was already shown, and so we get:

(status-icon-name:3730): Gtk-WARNING **: gtk_window_set_wmclass: shouldn't set wmclass after window is realized!

Also:

(status-icon-name:3730): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: g_object_notify: object class `GtkStatusIcon' has no property named `name'

This applies to gtk+ 2.23 and 2.91.

Should be fixed now.

Your commit does fix the realize issue, but the g_object_notify assertion still occurs on gtk-2-24.  Commit 32f6070bc84c9e6f2173fb0b37476435367c7802 fixed that issue on master, but it never got back-ported.

Shall I cherry-pick it?

Sure, please do
Comment 4 Torsten Schoenfeld 2011-09-04 21:05:38 UTC 
Now done as commit dafc1eda808fcd75f27ae0287f7ead617973828e.
