Dialog boxes

["Chris Garrett" <garrett91 hotmail com>]

Hi,

I am trying to learn GTK by writing a basic application.  However, I am 
having a bit of trouble getting GtkDialog to do what I want :o)

I would like to create a callback function of some sort, that will return a 
true / false value according to the button in the dialog that is pressed.  
It would be used, for example, for a question box asking whether a window is 
to be closed or not.

I can draw the dialog fine, and put the text I want into it etc.  However, 
the notion of callbacks as I understand it is restricting me a little.  As I 
understand it, a button will have a callback function attached to it.  
However, how do I feedback to the function that created the button (and 
displays the dialog) which button was pressed (hence altering the return 
value for that function).

If I am going about this completely the wrong way (which I suspect) please 
say why and how I should tackle the problem instead.  At the moment, I am 
using gnome_message_box but I do not want to bind myself to the gnome 
libraries.

Best regards,

Chris
