I am creating a system tray icon that shows up a bunch of menus on
right click.
I try to populate a pop-up menu with the following function.

void CPimonTray::populatePopupMenu(HMENU hPopMenu)
{
MENUITEMINFO menuItem;
menuItem.cbSize = sizeof(MENUITEMINFO);
menuItem.fMask =
IIM_FTYPE|MIIM_STRING|MIIM_TYPE|MIIM_STATE|MIIM_ID ;
menuItem.fType = MFT_STRING;
menuItem.fState = MFS_ENABLED;
menuItem.wID = ID_LAUNCH_PI;
std::string menuName = "Sign In";
menuItem.dwTypeData = menuName.c_str();
menuItem.cch = menuName.length() + 1;
bool res = InsertMenuItem(hPopMenu,0xFFFFFFFF,true,&menuItem);
DWORD errorcode = GetLastError();

}

When i do this I always get an error code:87 [ Invalid parameters ]

Can someone please help me out of this?

Thanks in advance!
