Pango Integration?

[Zitan Broth <zitan mediasculpt net>]

Greetings All,

 

I'm having a problem calling Pango from PHP, which is most likely PHP related, but I thought you all might be able to help me - at least interpret the error I am getting.  The php-gtk project haven't worked with GTK 2.0 yet so ....

 

I have some c code (a **special** thanks to Attin Cotteral for this) which accesses Pango to find out what the width is of a given string with font and font size.  Works well when called from the command line, and I've included the code and compile instructions below :-)

 

When I call this program from PHP it gives me the output:

 ./pango/pango_get_width "arial 12" "bumpylove"

(pango_get_width:5039): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
Got fontname 'arial 12'
Got input text 'bumpylove'

 

What I'm wondering is what the Gtk-WARNING means?  This has been rather a large headache so any help is **hugely** appreciated :-)

Thanks to all,
Zitan.
