of course. you can even mix and match gtk and gtkmm within a C++ program.

i hope its a simple program. the "just" in your middle sentence is
often a severe understatement.

sounds like you didn't have all the right include files included. i
use GTK+ from C++ on a regular basis (even though i prefer gtkmm, i am
forced to go to GTK+ for a few things), and it works without any such
warnings (despite -Wall)
