RE: Win32 API HInstance and gtk+ - how?

["Robert Thorpe" <Robert Thorpe antenova com>]

The normal way to get the app instance is to do GetWindowLong (hwnd,
GWL_HINSTANCE)
But hInstance and prevInstance aren't very useful these days, they
cannot be used to check if a program is already running as it could be
on Win-16.

The normal way is to do that is to use FindWindow with the window class
and Window name as NULL.
