ok, I think I understand now. but somehow it seems that my class has
some mistake in it (see attachment). I'm calling it like this in my
code:

********
.
.
window->priv->object = app_calendar_new ();

gtk_box_pack_end (GTK_BOX (main_box),
  GTK_WIDGET(window->priv->object),
  TRUE, 
  TRUE, 
  0);
.
.
********

all objects before and after this code get created and displayed
correctly, only my self made object refuses to show up.

maybe someone can help me with this,
cheers,
Andreas
