[maemo-developers] [maemo-developers] Sharing menuitem between differents Pageviews ...

[From: Jorge Souza]

Hi all,

In my app , I would like to share some specific
menuItems between all the registered pageviews. So
I've created a global menuItem variable, aiming to
append it to the menu of each pageview.

So, after the creation of each pageview, I've tried to
get its menu and than append my global menuItem. The
following quoted code ilustrates my intentions:

<quoted>

GtkMenu *mainMenu = NULL;

// get main menu pointer
mainMenu =
GTK_MENU(hildon_appview_get_menu(current_page_view));
    
// appeding the global Window menu
gtk_menu_shell_append(GTK_MENU_SHELL(mainMenu),
gMenuWindowMenuItem);

</quoted>

When I append the global menuItem to the first
apgeview (at the fisrt time, of course), every thing
works properly. But when I try a second time, I get:

(app_test:19338): Gtk-WARNING **: Can't set a parent
on widget which has a parent

at runtime. So, it is complaining that my menuItem
already has a parent (in this case, the parent is the
former page_view's menu). Is there a way to juggle
this situation ?! How can I share menuItem between
different page_views ?!

regards

JS
