Can't grab keyboard

["Dinesh Nadarajah" <dxn1972 hotmail com>]

Hi:

I am trying to grab the keyboard using the command gdk_grab_keyboard() and 
am passing (GtkWidget *)->window, FALSE, GDK_CURRENT_TIME as paramaters. The 
function is executed just before gtk_main(). But I am unable to grab the 
keyboard. Am I doing something wrong here.

The reason I am doing this because, we are trying to convert some Xlib based 
legacy software into Gtk/Gdk based. As a first step we are developing the 
GUI part first. On this note, I also would like to find out how easy (or 
hard) it is to integrate Xlib based command into Gtk/Gdk (like the 
following):

Dispay *display;  display variable in Xlib apps.

XGetInputFocus(...); To get the current input focus window

XSendEvent;

Thanks.
