Usage of gtk_rc_parse_string()

[Joachim Backes <backes rhrk uni-kl de>]

Hi,

I want to set the background of some or all wigdets during creation
time using the gtk_rc_parse_string() function.

The piece of code I'm using looks as follows:

  gtk_rc_parse_string("style \"background\"\n"
  "{\n"
  "bg[NORMAL] = \"646464\"\n"
  "}"
  "widget_class \"*\" style \"background\""
  );

When running my app, I get the following err msg:

  -:3: error: invalid string constant "646464", expected valid string constant

What I'm doing wrong? In the gtk+ reference manual I found that colors
can be specified as "rrggbb" where r/g/b are hex digits, and I mean, my
notation is correct.

The usage of "100.0,100.0,100.0" (usage of floats) produces similar err mgs.

Any help appreciated.

Regards



Joachim Backes
