[pygtk] clear window?

2000-02-26 Thread Kim Deok Hwan

Is there anything in gtk.py that corresponds to 'gdk_window_clear' in C?  
Or how can I emulate the function of it?

For example, I can convert C version function to Python version function
except a underlined statement.


--

C version
=

void color_changed_cb( GtkWidget *widget, GtkColorSelection *colorsel )
{
gdouble color[3];
GdkColor gdk_color;
GdkColormap *colormap;

colormap = gdk_window_get_colormap (drawingarea->window);

gtk_color_selection_get_color (colorsel,color);

gdk_color.red = (guint16)(color[0]*65535.0);
gdk_color.green = (guint16)(color[1]*65535.0);
gdk_color.blue = (guint16)(color[2]*65535.0);

gdk_color_alloc (colormap, &gdk_color);

gdk_window_set_background (drawingarea->window, &gdk_color);

/* Clear window */
gdk_window_clear (drawingarea->window);
~~
}


Python Version
==

def color_changed_cb(widget, colorsel):
gc = drawingarea.get_window().new_gc()

colormap = drawingarea.get_colormap()

color = colorsel.get_color()

red = color[0] * 65535
green = color[1] * 65535
blue = color[2] * 65535

color = colormap.alloc(red, green, blue)

gc.background = color

What statements (or routines) can enter (HERE) ?

Thanks for your reading.

Re: [pygtk] timeout causes lockup?

2000-02-26 Thread Mitch Chapman

Here's an excerpt from a module of miscellaneous pygtk functions.
It shows three platform-dependent implementations of an update()
function.  update() is used e.g. to update a progress bar
in the middle of a time-consuming operation -- it's analogous to
the Tkinter update() function.

I haven't bothered looking at Gtk+ or pygtk sources in order to figure 
out why you need threads_(enter|leave) on Solaris but not on Linux.
If somebody could explain the difference I'd be grateful.

One last note:  This code was tested w. pygtk 0.6.2, on all
three platforms.

I've seen this recently.  The behavior varies depending on what version
of Gtk+ you're running with, and on what operating system.

The basic problem is that, on some platforms, even w. Gtk+ 1.2.6,
you need to surround calls to gtk.events_pending() and
gtk.mainiteration() with calls to gtk.threads_leave() and
gtk.threads_enter(). On others (e.g. Solaris) you *shouldn't* do so.

I'll trudge in to the office in a bit and forward some relevant code,
showing how to work around the problem on a handful of OS platforms.

P.S.  This probably sounds kind of bogus.  That's why I've not posted
comments on it before -- I'm probably missing something obvious.

Actually, the hang came after my timeout function completed. It was calling 
mainiteration(FALSE) to 
update a progress bar, which was causing the hang. Anyone know why?

I've never looked at the code, but I assume timeouts are essentially
just inserted into the gtk mainloop.  So if your timeout blocks, it
will stop the mainloop dead.  Since you mention network calls, I'd
have to suspect that.
