building XML- and/or GTK source code from ANSI-C code

[pvosta unionbio-eu com]

Hi,

Glade is baing used to build C-code for GTK/GNOMEfrom XML-code, which is
fine for some projects. However if you have an extensive set of
C-libraries and you simply want to put them into a GTK/GNOME interface,
at this moment you have to build the XML-code by hand which is very
cumbersome.

Are there scripts to convert ANSI-C prototypes int XML ? It would
already be a great help if it would be possible to create the dialogs in
this way. If there are scripts to create GTK/GNOME C-code starting form
the ANSI_C prototypes this would help too of course.

e.g.:

int myfunc( int a, int b ) ->

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<GTK-Interface>

<project>
...
      <widget>
	<class>GtkMenuItem</class>
	<name>myfunc</name>
	<signal>
	  <name>activate</name>
	  <handler>on_myfunc_activate</handler>
	  <last_modification_time>Tue, 22 Oct 2002 07:40:26
GMT</last_modification_time>
	</signal>
	<label>Myfunc</label>
	<right_justify>False</right_justify>
...


Kind regards,
