I did it this way with a yacc and lex problem. The main problem is that you have to have two asynchrony processes, because any action in the callback only takes place if this the callback has finished . The best way is to use gtk threads (have a look on the documentation) Readirect stderr or stdout to a named pipe open (take care of blocking open with no block) . In the 2nd thread open this pipe for read and show a error dialog. I hopw it will help. günther Ivo Andrejco wrote:
Hi everyone, I am writing an application that connects to Postgresql. (I know am not the only one.) And here's my problem. Postgresql writes error messages to stdout, I would like to catch them and display in my application. I was looking at similar problems in the list but they mostly invoke a new process, open a pipe and that's it. In my case everything runs as one process. Is there any way to do it without spawning a new process.
