Hey everyone,

I am very new to the toolkit and I am fooling around with some thingsgetting ramped up for a product my company is working on.  I amusing the CXTTrayIcon class as in the examples and callingCXTPCommandBars::TrackPopupMenu(CMenu*,..) to display the menuassociated with the tray icon.

In my application, I need the menu that pops up to be able to displaydynamic content.  In previous MFC (non-codejock apps) this wassolved by using ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI combined withpCmdUI->m_pMenu->AppendMenu(..).  Trying the same mechanismwith my codejock app results in a little different behavior.  Inthe pure MFC app, the pCmdUI->m_pSubMenu and pCmdUI->m_pMenumembers were usable values in some cases (such as when i the updatemessage is passed on a submenu) but in the app with the tray icon, them_pSubMenu and m_pMenu are always NULL - so I can't use the sametechnique that I am used to.  Interestingly enough, if i take outthe call to CXTPCommandBars::TrackPopupMenu(CMenu*,...) and use theCMenu object's TrackPopupMenu method directly, then none of myON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI handlers are called at all.

My question is basically what is the best way to go about making asystem tray popup menu that contains dynamic content.  I havetried using CXTPMenuBar, ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI, etc.. all withoutperfect results.  I am sure there is a good way to do this I amjust not familiar enough with the toolkit yet.  Suggestions??
