[Glade-devel] Web help and a question

[john at jcoppens.com (John Coppens)]

Hello all,

If so desired, I offer to update the Glade webpage as it is, to be at 
least up-to-date with the versions that are coming out. Then we can try to
decide where we want to go. I don't have the time to do heroics, but it's
a pity the page doesn't reflect what's happening.

Then a small problem: How can I determine the 'state' of GtkBuilder
support in Glade-3? Is Builder support sufficient to be used, or should I
still use libglade and convert?

I saved a project in that format, but loading it gives:

(farma3:15536): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_widget_show: assertion
`GTK_IS_WIDGET (widget)' failed

main.c:

  GtkBuilder *builder;
  GtkWidget *LoginWindow;

  gtk_set_locale();
  gtk_init(&argc, &argv);

  builder = gtk_builder_new();
  gtk_builder_add_from_file(builder, "farma3.glade", NULL);
 
  LoginWindow = GTK_WIDGET(gtk_builder_get_object(builder, "LoginWindow"));
  gtk_builder_connect_signals(builder, NULL);          
  g_object_unref(G_OBJECT(builder));

  gtk_widget_show(LoginWindow);

  gtk_main();
  return 0;

In the xml file, LoginWindow appears as a GtkWindow:

  <object class="GtkWindow" id="LoginWindow">
    <property name="title" translatable="yes">Farma login</property>
    <property name="modal">True</property>
    <property name="window_position">center-always</property>
    <property name="type_hint">dialog</property>
