Dialog-like window?

[Fabricio Rocha <rocha_fabricio yahoo com br>]

Dudes,

      Is there a way of creating a window which, when shown, will cause 
the caller function to sit and wait until it gives a result? I mean, 
something like the GtkDialogs and gtk_dialog_run. However, as far as I 
understood, a normal GtkDialog only "returns" integer values.

      I ask this because I would like to have a certain dialog working 
itself like a function, building a structure according to whatever is 
shown or input in its widgets, and then returning this structure (or any 
other type) when the user clicks on OK. Then the program would continue 
from the point where the "open_dialog function" was called, using the 
data structure (or any other value type) which has been created with the 
dialog.

        I have seen this behaviour in other programming 
languages/toolkits, but still haven´t got a clue of how to emulate this 
in GTK. What do you suggest?

Thank you!
