Paulo:

You should always post questions to the list because others may have 
better answers than I do.  That said, here's my suggestion:  Review the 
information that the online book has on signals:

http://www.gtkmm.org/docs/gtkmm-2.4/docs/tutorial/html/sec-signals-overview.html
http://www.gtkmm.org/docs/gtkmm-2.4/docs/tutorial/html/chapter-signals.html

You'll want to move the call to your DrawingArea::getXWinID() method in 
your DrawingArea constructor to either the ExampleGui constructor (after 
show_all_children) or connect to the DrawingArea::signal_realize() 
signal 
(http://www.gtkmm.org/docs/gtkmm-2.4/docs/reference/html/classGtk_1_1Widget.html#57525266f890c9eb894ae00af141decf) 
in your DrawingArea constructor and call the getXWinID() in your signal 
callback. . HTH.
