Something like [NSPopUpButton removeAllItems] (but for menu bar item) ?

Or each submenu/item menu must be removed one each at time ?
How do this ?

Thank you.

The following works:

- (void)removeAllItemsOf:(NSMenu *)menu {
int i, iCount = [menu numberOfItems];
for (i = iCount - 1;0 <= i; --i) {
[menu removeItemAtIndex:i];
}
}

Unless your code is retaining them, they're gone.
