TrayIcon offers an API to display a custom icon in the tray, with a label dislayed on mouseover, click handling on it and supports the display of a menu on right click.
This library has been tested on Window XP and Seven with :
- Firefox 3.6.8 (using xpcom component),
- Firefox 4 nightlies (using jsctypes) It doesn't work on beta3, because of bugs with jsctypes. It is going to work with beta4+.
It may work on linux too with Firefox 3.6 as xpcom component for linux is shipped in this package.
Futhermore it contains a good usage example of jsctypes with complex struct,
calls to win32api and use of FunctionType (C function pointer for callbacks).
Interresting parts are files in the lib directory.
