[n00b] what's a smooth_draw_box?
Hi list, I've just started with GTK and been going through the tutorial and examples. My first small application is working all right but the following (I guess) warning keeps being written to the console: CRITICAL **: smooth_draw_box: assertion `width >= -1' and strangely enough Google doesn't return any pages for the queries http://www.google.com/search?q=smooth_draw_box+site%3Agtk.org http://www.google.com/search?q=smooth_draw_box+site%3Alibrary.gnome.org What I believe is the relevant part of my code: window = gtk_window_new( GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL ); gtk_container_set_border_width( GTK_CONTAINER( window ), 50 ); gtk_widget_show( window ); scale = gtk_hscale_new( GTK_ADJUSTMENT( adjustment ) ); gtk_widget_set_size_request( GTK_WIDGET( scale ), 350, 40 ); gtk_container_add( GTK_CONTAINER( window ), scale ); gtk_widget_show( scale ); gtk_main( ); All I want to have in my top level window is a scale widget.

Re: Application with plugins
I use gmodule in Glib to load my modules. Every plugin must have an init() function that is called when the module loads. In the init function the plugin can use application interfaces to "hook" itself onto pre-defined application functions, or create their own to hook into. It is much simpler than a Gobject based system and works nicely.

Those aren't "bash commands" -- they are other programs! All those things that you seem to think of as part of bash (cp, ls, rm, ftp, ssh, nc, tar, sed, gzip etc.) are in fact all external programs. The difference between "shell" languages and other languages is that shells typically interpret all commands as external programs to be started, with the exception of the few truly builtin commands (see the section BUILTIN COMMANDS) in the bash man page. So to start another program from bash, just write it on a single line. To start another program from C or Perl, just wrap it into a system() function call. Ruby and Python will have similar functions, but I don't know them. --D. ___ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
Re: App blueprint, advice please!
Thanks to Dan and John for your last posts and thanks to all. I am really delighted with the response to my question! So it looks like the I could use Bash to spawn other programs but it is likely problematic and no one actually recommends it as a first option. So as Dan was saying, I can launch other programs written in other languages from system() function calls. So I could link lots of them together regardless of language they are written in and if I really needed to I could still access Bash commands like ssh, netcat right? I think both Python and Ruby can be extended with C without using a system call. Is there anything wrong with calling them from system calls instead? Thanks again Göran! I read up on Ruby last night for a couple of hours. I am sure I can pick this up. Python is the only language I can actually work at a reasonable pace in. I am just learning C. Is there a reason you chose Ruby over Python? If I am already using Python, do you think I need to switch languages to achieve my goal? And thanks for the tip, I want to sell code not software! I am going to save this entire thread somewhere safe. I hope one day I can compensate or somehow return the favor to all involved.

The tab label is not limited to GtkLabel. You can put whatever widget
you want (an image, a button...), see:
http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/unstable/GtkNotebook.html#gtk-notebook-append-page
Example of code:
GtkWidget *notebook, *hbox, *label, *image;
hbox = gtk_hbox_new(FALSE, 0);
label = gtk_label_new("Pouet");
gtk_box_pack_start(GTK_BOX(hbox), label, FALSE, FALSE, 0);
image = gtk_image_new_from_stock(GTK_STOCK_CLOSE,
GTK_ICON_SIZE_MENU);
gtk_box_pack_end(GTK_BOX(hbox), image, FALSE, FALSE, 2);
gtk_widget_show_all(hbox);
notebook = gtk_notebook_new();
gtk_notebook_append_page(GTK_NOTEBOOK(notebook),
child, hbox);

Reparsing with GtkBuilder
Hi If i used gtk_builder_add_from_string to parse some string for builder which already has some content then application terminates with following message >Gtk-ERROR **: file gtkbuilder.c: line 567 (apply_delayed_properties): assertion failed: (object != NULL) if builder had already set some delayed property. If builder had not set any delayed property previously then it does not crashes while reparsing with add_string. Is this bug in Gtk+? Delayed properties are applied in parser finished. If we parse any buffer again with same builder then it tries to set the delayed properties again which are irrelevant. setting builder->delayed_properties to NULL in parser_finished solves above problem but is this a right solution or it has any other side effects? If new buffer has any delayed properties associated with objects then builder->delayed_properties will set again and that properties will be applied in parser_finished.

I did something slightly similar (quite) a few years ago to control a large painting scanner. The program had to control a large robot, a lighting and filter system and a camera, be easy to modify and be usable by non-experts. I did a simple GUI in C++/Motif (shows how long ago this was) with large buttons for "Start Scan" and so on. Each button launched a bash script, and each bash script used a set of low-level programs written in C to drive different parts of the hardware. It worked reasonably well. As I recall, the issues with the design were: 1) difficulties transferring data between the GUI and bash at script start and stop time 2) bash's lack of complex data structures and arithmetic 3) progress feedback from a running bash script was ugly 4) cancelling a running script (and leaving the hardware in a sane state) was ugly 5) performance ... was fine, actually, but I can imagine applications where it might not be If I had to do it again I think I'd do the whole thing in Python (except the very low-level hardware control). It ought to fix these problems. John ___ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
