Present Scenerio:

1) class TrayWindow which is inherited from TopWindow was created
2) EventProc was implemented for TrayWindow

If I created say 1 TopWindow plus 1 TrayWindow as below

TopWindow w1;
TrayWindow t1;

Then it ended up with two set of EventLoops.

Does anyone knows how to merge two eventloops together.

Is there any registering process needed to plug a tailor made "EventProc" so that it could be callable by Ctrl::EventLoop() ?

My guess is : AddChild();

EventProc is more "implementation" thing, you should not override it directly unless you are doing some very platform specific thing (which OTOH you seem to do Smile.

Simply overriding it should be enough. But do not forget to call Ctrl::EventProc for messages you do not handle...

Things are getting much much more complicated than I expected.

Because the window holding the "trayicon" is not created by TopWindow, I must find a way to register it so that it could be included in Ctrl::GetTopWindows().

But how?

My EventProc never knows the very existence of my trayicon because it is not created by TopWindow. I don't want to implement another version of Open() because most of the functions and variables within Ctrl are created as "private" instead of "protected".


Also, it seems to me that there is no such thing similar to GtkContainer in U++.
