[Vala] Application Menu

[Steven Oliver <oliver steven gmail com>]

I want convert my application to use the Gnome 3 style menu instead of
having a menubar. Gnome 3 has been out forever, so it's about time.

Anyway, I can't seem to get it to work. Here's what I've got so far.

I have this code as a class level variable:

private const ActionEntry[] action_entries =
      {
         { "view_log", view_log_cb },
         { "help", help_cb },
         { "about", about_cb },
         { "quit", quit_cb },
      } ;

During startup, I call this:

add_action_entries (action_entries, this) ;

Followed by this:

var builder = new Gtk.Builder () ;
 try {
    builder.add_from_resource ("/org/gnome/balistica/menu.ui") ;
 } catch ( Error e ){
    logger.publish (new LogMsg (e.message)) ;
 }

 var menu = builder.get_object ("appmenu") as MenuModel ;
 set_app_menu (menu) ;

Finally, I have my menu.ui file in my resources.xml file. I know that
my resources.xml is working otherwise because that's where my glade
files are listed and the GUI comes up otherwise. Does anyone have any
idea what I'm missing?
