To make that finally clear, thats why the signal functions pass a data
pointer.  So to use C++ you can always either pass the object into the
static function:

        class CFrame {
                static gboolean ReadData(CFrame* me);
        };
        /* ... */
        g_timeout_add_seconds(1,(GSourceFunc)CFrame::ReadData,frame);

or I would prefer to leave the C++ alone and write a small wrapper

        frame_ReadData(CFrame* f) { return f->ReadData(); }
        /* ... */
        g_timeout_add_seconds(1,(GSourceFunc)frame_ReadData,frame);
