Solution

  • It's not implemented in the CF, but the NotifyIcon class is what you're after. The SDF does implement it. It would be used something like this:

    m_notifyIcon = new NotifyIcon();
m_notifyIcon.Icon = this.Icon;
m_notifyIcon.Visible = true;
m_notifyIcon.Click += new EventHandler(m_notifyIcon_Click);
m_notifyIcon.DoubleClick += new EventHandler(m_notifyIcon_DoubleClick);

    EDIT

    If you want to implement this yourself, the place to start is with the Shell_NotifyIcon API. You'll want to pass it the handle to a MessageWindow class and handle the WM_NOTIFY messages.
