    Thumbs down C Programming - GtkStatusIcon problem !

    Hello friends,

    I am creating a project with GtkStatusIcon but there is some problem with the code which I am unable to catch please help anyone. Actually, the status icon is not coming in the tray menu.

    Code:
        gtk_status_icon_set_from_pixbuf(status_icon, create_pixbuf(PATH_IMG_PACKAGE));
        gtk_status_icon_set_tooltip_text(status_icon, MSG_PKG_NAME);
        gtk_status_icon_set_visible(status_icon, TRUE);

    This is some code I used to create an indicator a long time ago.
    I don't understand it completely, so I just leave it here, in case it helps you"
    Code:
    #include <gtk/gtk.h>
    #include <libappindicator/app-indicator.h>
    #include <QDebug>
    
    
    void print_a(GtkWidget *wid)
    {
        qDebug() << "A";
    
    }
    
    void print_b(GtkWidget *wid)
    {
        qDebug() << "B";
        //gtk_widget_hide(wid);
    }
    
    void quit_from_indicator(){
        exit(0);
    }
    
    GtkWidget* make_menu(AppIndicator* indicator)
    {
            GtkWidget* menu = gtk_menu_new();
            GtkWidget* item = gtk_menu_item_new_with_label("Wallch main menu");
            gtk_menu_item_set_submenu(GTK_MENU_ITEM(item), menu);
            GtkWidget* subitem1 = gtk_menu_item_new_with_label("print A");
            g_signal_connect(subitem1, "activate", G_CALLBACK(print_a), indicator);
            gtk_menu_shell_append(GTK_MENU_SHELL(menu), subitem1);
            GtkWidget* subitem2 = gtk_menu_item_new_with_label("print B");
            g_signal_connect(subitem2, "activate", G_CALLBACK(print_b), indicator);
            gtk_menu_shell_append(GTK_MENU_SHELL(menu), subitem2);
            GtkWidget* subitem3 = gtk_menu_item_new_with_label("Quit");
            g_signal_connect(subitem3, "activate", G_CALLBACK(quit_from_indicator), indicator);
            gtk_menu_shell_append(GTK_MENU_SHELL(menu), subitem3);
            gtk_widget_show_all(menu);
            return menu;
    }
    
    
    int
    main(int argc, char** argv)
    {
            gtk_init (&argc, &argv);
    
            AppIndicator* indicator = app_indicator_new("Wallch Indicator", "wallch", APP_INDICATOR_CATEGORY_APPLICATION_STATUS);
    
            GtkWidget* indicatormenu = make_menu(indicator);
    
            app_indicator_set_status(indicator, APP_INDICATOR_STATUS_ACTIVE);
            app_indicator_set_attention_icon(indicator, "dialog-warning");
    
            app_indicator_set_menu(indicator, GTK_MENU (indicatormenu));
    
            gtk_main ();
    
            return 0;
    }

    That code looks like it should work. Just remove qDebug() from it.
