Summary: eggtrayicon causes icons to be placed in their own window

Initial Comment:
A code change in icetray.cc between 1.2.34 and 1.2.35 results in the Gajim tray icon being placed in its own window. When Gajim is closed the window remains (minus icon) but is "broken" and refuses to be killed.

This problem seems to be unique to eggtrayicon and IceWM. Please find attached a test case which I've used to reproduce the problem with 1.2.35 as well as a recent CVS copy. The problem does not seem to exist in 1.2.34 or JWM (Joe's Window Manager).

The change which results in the problem appears to be:

193,195c199,205
<     if (fTray2->visible())
<         show();
<     else 
---
>     if (fTray2->visible()) {
>         if (!fManaged)
>             requestDock();
>         else
>             show();
>     } else {
>         fManaged = false;

If I remove the call to requestDock() and simply call show() as before the problem seems to go away. I'm not suggesting this as a fix (I'm sure you have a reason for calling requestDock()), but rather to point you to where the problem may lie.

Message:
This bug is present in 1.2.37. I see it with gajim. The bug is usualy seen
after I close a single app (does not matter which) that used the systray
and then start gajim. Instead of the systray the gajim icon appears in its
own window. This window cannot be closed.

When I have change theme or restarting Icewm - tray icon being placed in
its own window. And when I change theme or restarting Icewm again - this
"tray" window now without any tray icons - only small black window  refuses
to be killed.

note: the testcase doesn't cause the problem for me in latest CVS
(1.2.35+)

Be sure that you are using icewmtray from icewm-1.2.35 and not an older
version.
