libxfcegui4 XfceIconTheme deprecated?

It seems like every function in XfceIconTheme is deprecated. What should I use instead?

Better use pixbuf loading from gtk/gdk.

But gdk_pixbuf_new_from_file() requires the full path.

If you need a themed generic icon, do something like:

            pixbuf = gtk_icon_theme_load_icon(theme,
                         "gnome-media-player",
                         icon_size,
                         0,
                         NULL);

lookup the names under /usr/share/pixmaps or icons

Also you can use themed gtk stock icons:

            pixbuf  = gtk_image_new_from_stock(
            GTK_STOCK_MEDIA_PLAY, GTK_ICON_SIZE_BUTTON);

hth,
