Re: problem with custom menu

[John Taber <jtaber johntaber net>]

Okay, best that I can determine is that MenuItem is missing a constructor:
MenuItem(Glib::ustring label, Gtk::Menu menu)
this constructor would allow a menuitem (in my case "fileMenuItem") to be 
constructed with a menu ("fileMenu") and then added to the menubar.  That's 
how it is shown in the XFC documentation.  I don't know how else to attach a 
menu to the Menubar.
