["Laurent Houdusse" <l houdusse free fr>]

Thanks for this code but the created window is a standard window
so what is the interest?

It's missing a the most important line:

  gtk_window_set_type_hint (GTK_WINDOW (window),
                            GDK_WINDOW_TYPE_HINT_SPLASHSCREEN);


Use that and the code should be as simple as:

GtkWidget *
make_a_splashscreen_to_annoy_the_user (void)
{
  GtkWidget *window;
  GtkWidget *image;

  window = gtk_window_new (GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL);
  gtk_window_set_type_hint (GTK_WINDOW (window),
                            GDK_WINDOW_TYPE_HINT_SPLASHSCREEN);

  image = gtk_image_new_from_file (PATH_TO_YOUR_PROPERLY_SIZED_IMAGE);
  gtk_container_add (GTK_CONTAINER (window), image);
  gtk_widget_show (image);

  return window;
}


Cheers,
Greg
