In your _init() function, do gtk_window_set_type_hint( GTK_WINDOW( splash ), GDK_WINDOW_TYPE_HINT_SPLASHSCREEN ); > 2) I am inheriting MySplash from GtkWindow: > But when I am trying to cast MySplash as GtkWindow > I get a run-time warning: > GLib-GObject-WARNING **: invalid cast from `MySplash' to `GtkWindow' Are you setting GtkWindow as the parent class in your type creator? > 3) Each time label or progress bar is updated on splash screen, it should be > updated on the real screen, so I define (by tutorial): > while(gtk_events_pending()) { > gtk_main_iteration(); > } That's from a rather old tutorial, better to use: while( g_main_context_iteration( NULL, FALSE ) ) ; > Also I am a confused, loop while(gtk_events_pending()) gtk_main_iteration(); > will run BEFORE gtk_main_loop(), Since splash screen always shown during > initialization phase of application. Will this loop work? Yes, should work fine. Here's the splash class from my app, for what it's worth: http://vips.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/vips/nip2/trunk/src/boxes.c?view=markup search for 'splash'.
