Hello all again,

I single-stepped my application in the debugger and this is what is 
happening when the Gtk::Action::create function finally gets called 
(this code was in a file called "action.cc" ):

   Glib::RefPtr<Action> Action::create(const Glib::ustring& name, const 
Glib::ustring& label, const Glib::ustring& tooltip)
   {
       return Glib::RefPtr<Action>( new Action(name, Gtk::StockID(), 
label, tooltip) );
   }

Note that the formal parameter syntax in my earlier email is matched by 
the formal parameters shown above.  Note in the return statement a call 
to "Gtk::StockID()"  This is what my debugger shows as being called in 
"stockid.cc":

   StockID::StockID()
   {}

Could this be the source of my MISSING_ICON icons?
