Try

    gtk_container_add(GTK_CONTAINER(frame), topLevelWindow);

instead...  Gtk is an object-oriented programming system implemented in C.
Methods are always functions that prefix the conceptual method (e.g. "add")
with the class for which the method is defined ("gtk_container" in this
case).  The first argument must always be an instance of the class and
corresponds to "this" in C++ or self in languages like Python or Smalltalk.
You can think of the above call as

    frame.add(topLevelWindow)

(In fact, if you where using PyGtk, that's exactly how you'd write it.)
