Why? Or rather, what is the better alternative that you imply?

I use the data field to pass a "this" pointer to the call-back
functions since my main program is C++ but I do not use Gtk--[1].

If there is a better way to achieve this, I would like to know it.



[1] Gtk-- was not stable when I started programming this program, and
right now I do not want to waste time changing the code.
