These days the opposite will be true - you can precompile the GTK+ headers all in one go and include them as a binary header. I've tried this and it works well. One caveat is that you can only include one binary header. But, you can make a custom header file that simply includes gtk.h, and any other headers a particular part of your program needs and precompile that. The savings can be significant (on the order of 30-40% speedup in my own tests). thanks -mike _______________________________________________ gtk-devel-list mailing list gtk-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-devel-list
