Re: Using GLADE for windows

["Harinandan S" <harinandans gmail com>]

Thanks Tadej. I was able to get started with GtkBuilder by executing gtk-build-convert on my target platform. I'll install python and use it on windows.

 

I want to know in case of multi window applications how this methodology works? In GLADE-2 I used to call create_window generated function. In GLADE3 if all windows in an xml file are created but top level windows are not shown, it takes more memory. Also how can I destroy a window  and re create it whenever necessary?

Regards,
Harinandan S

Hi,

gtk-builder-convert is a python script, so in order to use it on
Windows machine, you need to install Python first.
