May be I was not clear in explaining my problem. I have used the -mwindows, which essentially suppresses all the debugging info(may be my printfs). But my requirement is different
I've packaged the application along with the required GTK dlls in a zip file. Created a batch file, which, appends the current gtk\bin path to local path and then launch the application. And the console window, which was opened by the batch file will be visible till closed explicitly. My requirement here is either I shall be in a position to set the path through program, hence avoid the .bat requirement or automatically close the console was the application is launched. I tried using getenv() and putenv(), but it is not working as expected. What's the best way to distribute GTK+ application without batch file.

Link the executable with the flag -mwindows (if using the GNU linker) or /subsystem:windows (if using the Microsoft linker). If you use the Microsoft linker this also means, I think, your app should have a WinMain() instead of main(). (This is nothing GTK+-specific, but basic Windows programming stuff.) --tml _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
