It's in the Java bindings as a function[1] that returns a Pixbuf, as in: pixbuf = Screenshot.capture(); which a few layers later reaches this: http://research.operationaldynamics.com/bzr/java-gnome/mainline/src/jni/gnome_screenshot_capture.c http://research.operationaldynamics.com/bzr/java-gnome/mainline/src/jni/gnome_screenshot.h which in turn just calls the stuff from what in gnome-utils is gnome-screenshot/screenshot-utils.c and friends. AfC Sydney [1]: yes yes, I realize full well that a class method is still a method in Java speak. Still, I've taken to calling them functions since everyone else tends to use "method" to exclusively refer to functions that are members of, and operate on, object instances. Whatever.

We used an adaptation of the gnome-screenshot code in gnome-utils's gnome-screenshot/gnome-screenshot.c It is *very * voodoo (in the sense that it makes all kinds of low level X calls which aren't the sort of thing that us mere mortal application developers using GTK have to know about, usually) but works quite nicely, especially the fact that it captures window decorations and adds a nice drop shadow.

Hi. This function in quite new addition to gtk - it is only available in gtk 2.14.
