Hi!

Im trying to contribute tray icon to my e4 based application.
In e3 application I use WorkbenchWindowAdvisor class and override

WorkbenchWindowAdvisor.postWindowOpen()

and

WorkbenchWindowAdvisor.dispose()

methods to contribute and dispose tray icon. In e4 app I use MyLifeCycleManager (lifeCycleURI application property) and in @ProcessAdditions annotated method I create tray icon in the following way:

Tray tray = pDisplay.getSystemTray();
trayItem = new TrayItem(tray, SWT.NONE);
Image trayImage = AbstractUIPlugin.imageDescriptorFromPlugin(Activator.PLUGIN_ID, "icons/alt_window_16.gif").createImage();
trayItem.setImage(trayImage);
trayItem.setToolTipText(TRAY_TOOLTIP);

What is the correct way to create and dispose tray icon in e4 manner?
