Description Olivier Chalouhi CLA 2004-06-04 07:20:40 EDT 
A user reported me that he can't hides my application tray icon (which uses SWT / TrayItem), by using 
utilities such as :
traySaver and trayIt! (this one reports "Application aren't present anymore").
Comment 1 Steve Northover CLA 2004-06-04 09:26:42 EDT 
GG to investigate.  Do other application have the problem?
Comment 2 Olivier Chalouhi CLA 2004-06-04 09:34:52 EDT 
I'll ask the user who reported the bug, it sounded in his bug report that this behaviour was specific to 
Azureus, but I will ask (Azureus being the application using SWT).
Comment 3 Olivier Chalouhi CLA 2004-06-04 13:17:03 EDT 
The user reported that he can only see this behaviour with Azureus, and he's not aware of other SWT 
applications to test with.
Comment 4 Benjamin Pasero CLA 2004-06-11 09:35:15 EDT 
He could try RSSOwl (rssowl.org) which uses SWT with TrayIcon (activate it in 
Preferences > Workbench > View) or simply download the Tray Icon snippet from 
the SWT dev page.

Moving report to triage, see http://www.eclipse.org/swt/triage.php
for more info about swt bug handling.

This is a one-off bulk update. (The last one in the triage migration).

Moving bugs from swt-triaged@eclipse to platform-swt-inbox@eclipse.org and adding "triaged" keyword as per new triage process:
