wxTaskBarIcon does not work under wx 2.9 Cocoa

[mrx3000]

The following code does not result in any task bar icon being created. CUSTOM_STATUSITEM and DOCK parameters to wxTaskBarIcon were used with no result.

class myTrayIcon : public wxTaskBarIcon {

DECLARE_DYNAMIC_CLASS(myTrayIcon)
DECLARE_EVENT_TABLE()

public:

myTrayIcon() : wxTaskBarIcon(CUSTOM_STATUSITEM) {

wxBitmap bitmap(small1_xpm);
m_Icon = new wxIcon();
m_Icon->CopyFromBitmap(bitmap);
SetIcon(*m_Icon, _T("test"));

}

}

Is the problem reproducible in the taskbar sample?

[mrx3000]

Yes, in that nothing is placed in a taskbar when I run that sample (it runs, does not fail - just does not result in anything happening to the taskbar).

It also does not result in the old "Carbon" behavior where the "task bar menu" was attached to the launcher application icon, either.

As a side note, it appears that the following line: taskbar.mm:111, there is a wxWindow created with NULL parent, which seems to result in an assert. Don't know if this has anything to do with the problem.
