Glademm is a library that generates the GTK/GNOME widgets from Glade's
XML files. Glademm generates gtkmm widgets, so yes, it is of course
compatible.

A simple example is here:

Don't generate code. In fact, IIRC there are plans to remove the
possibility to generate code from Glade entirely. glademm is the
recommended way to do this.
