问题
I've an application which has a system tray icon. While uninstalling I'm killing the process if its running. So, as am not gracefully stopping the app, the icon remains in the system tray and will remove only if we hover the mouse on it. I wrote a code that would run the cursor along the tray and get the cursor back in its initial position. This is what I have done:
[DllImport("user32.dll")]
static extern IntPtr FindWindow(string className, string windowName);
[DllImport("user32.dll")]
static extern IntPtr FindWindowEx(IntPtr parent, IntPtr child, string className, string windowName);
[DllImport("user32.dll")]
static extern bool GetWindowRect(HandleRef handle, out RECT rct);
[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)]
struct RECT
{
public int Left;
public int Top;
public int Right;
public int Bottom;
}
void RefreshTray()
{
IntPtr taskbar_Handle = FindWindow("Shell_Traywnd", "");
IntPtr tray_Handle = FindWindowEx(taskbar_Handle, IntPtr.Zero, "TrayNotifyWnd", "");
RECT rct;
if (!(GetWindowRect(new HandleRef(null, tray_Handle), out rct)))
{
}
System.Drawing.Point init = Control.MousePosition;
for (int i = rct.Left; i < rct.Right-20; i++)
{
Cursor.Position = new System.Drawing.Point(i, (rct.Bottom + rct.Top) / 2);
}
Cursor.Position = init;
}
This works good in all the cases except when the option "do not show notification icons" is enabled. Is there some way I could refresh the tray in this case?
EDIT As the comments suggested I changed my approach. Instead of killing the tray application, I established a communication between my application service (yeah, forgot to mention, I have a service too running along with the application) and tray application. While uninstalling, I stop the service, from the service stop method I would send a socket message of a particular format to the tray application and ask it to close and I would set the notify icon visibility to false. This would leave the Tray Application running in background so I am using "taskkill" to remove the application. It worked fine in Win7 and Vista, but is not working properly in Win XP. But I have not written any environment specific code. Any possible clue?
回答1:
That's similar to what I use. A simple floating Keyboard I added to a touch gallery interface. The user wanted to also have my keyboard as a standalone application on their desktop. So I did this, created a tray app for it. Now - what if its open and they launch my gallery?
They would have two keyboards.
Sure - the user could end the first - but its easier to just end it. There are no repercussions from me killing it, so I do. But the tray Icon remains, as its waiting for an event. To get around this, I refresh the Tray area.
Please note - This would only work on an English Locale Installation. To get this to work on another language, change "User Promoted Notification Area", and "Notification Area" to the translated / equivalent string.

Use this tool http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/19620/LP-TrayIconBuster
It iterates through ToolBarButtons in TrayNotifyWnd & NotifyIconOverflowWindow and removes those with null file names.

Shouldn't be difficult to close the current instance using something like pipes, or TCP if you don't feel like doing that and aren't running .NET4.0.
As everyone is implying, the issue is that by killing your process it doesn't get a chance to unregister its tray icon instance, so it sticks around until Windows attempts to send an event to it (the next time you move the mouse over it) at which point Windows will remove it.
Depending on what installer you are using, this could be quite easy or more difficult. Most popular installer frameworks allow for plugins, and a few of them support Pipes, many more support TCP requests. Alternatively, write up a small executable that your installer can run before it begins the uninstall process, which communicates with your primary app and sends a close message.
As a final note, if you can use .NET4.0 then I'd suggest looking at the built in System.IO.Pipes namespace and the included classes.

I found this (http://maruf-dotnetdeveloper.blogspot.com/2012/08/c-refreshing-system-tray-icon.html) solution worked for me.
