egui example doesn't work, crashes on start on macOS about tray-icon

[twop]

I was able to show the icon, it seems that it needs to be stored somewhere in a data structure so it won't be dropped? Will dig a little more and maybe send a PR to update the example

[amrbashir]

That would be appreciated, I am fine with just storing it in a Rc<RefCell<Option<TrayIcon>>>

@amrbashir I am getting the same with the "tao" example.
There are two changes that need to be made to that example:
tao::event_loop::EventLoop is used instead of EventLoopBuilder
and in this library TrayEvent instead of TrayIconEvent

The error:

Assertion failed: (CGAtomicGet(&is_initialized)), function CGSConnectionByID, file /System/Volumes/Data/SWE/macOS/BuildRoots/37599d3d49/Library/Caches/com.apple.xbs/Sources/SkyLight/SkyLight-588.10/SkyLight/Services/Connection/CGSConnection.mm, line 133.

I run this on a Mac Big Sur (not M1)

@oren0e the examples have been updated with this changes days ago. If you are facing a specific issue, feel free to open another issue with more details and steps to reproduce.
