Im trying to make a class that creates an icon for system tray where you can exit the program.

Everything works as it should except for the actual icon.
Right now i have the popup in systemtray just without an image.

What should i do to load the image properly?
Is there a specific size the picture needs to have?

This is my code: https://pastebin.com/9UXJC1Vf

Here is an example of how you can create a SystemTray icon in Java:

import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;

public class SystemTrayIconExample {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        if (SystemTray.isSupported()) {
            SystemTray systemTray = SystemTray.getSystemTray();
            Image image = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage("icon.png");

            PopupMenu popupMenu = new PopupMenu();
            MenuItem exitItem = new MenuItem("Exit");
            exitItem.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
                @Override
                public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
                    System.exit(0);
                }
            });
            popupMenu.add(exitItem);

            TrayIcon trayIcon = new TrayIcon(image, "System Tray Icon", popupMenu);
            trayIcon.setImageAutoSize(true);

            try {
                systemTray.add(trayIcon);
            } catch (AWTException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        } else {
            System.out.println("System Tray is not supported");
        }
    }
}

In this example, we first check if the system supports the SystemTray. We then create an Image object with the icon image file. We create a PopupMenu with an "Exit" MenuItem that exits the program when clicked. We create a TrayIcon with the image, tooltip text, and PopupMenu. Finally, we add the TrayIcon to the SystemTray.

Make sure to replace "icon.png" with the path to your icon image file.
