I can't seem to get a Win32::GUI popup menu to invoke its callback/event handlers. The following program puts up a popup menu with two entries: 'foo' and 'bar'. When the user clicks one, it should print "GOTCHA foo" or "GOTCHA bar" but doesn't. What am I doing wrong? Thanks. 
use strict;
use Win32::GUI ();

$|=1;

my $window = Win32::GUI::Window->new();
my $menu   = new Win32::GUI::Menu(
    "mymenu" => "mymenu",
    " > foo"    => "foo",
    " > bar"    => { -name => 'bar', -onClick => \&bar_onclickcallback
+ },
);

print "Start Tracking\n";
$window->TrackPopupMenu($menu->{mymenu}, 20,20);
print "Done Tracking, if it didn't print 'GOTCHA ...' then no callback
+?\n";

sub bar_onclickcallback
{
    print "GOTCHA bar\n";
    return 1;
}

sub foo_Click
{
    print "GOTCHA foo\n";
    return 1;
}
