I am trying to control gtk from a specific thread in another
language, I don't want a blocking call like gtk_main() because I
want the thread to interact with other threads periodically. I am
trying to keep the C side code to a minimum . I found some examples on the net like this: while (gtk_events_pending()) gtk_main_iteration(); They work fine but I guess this is not designed to replace gtk_main just to update the gui during some other process. I tried this: or while ( TRUE ) gtk_events_pending () ; gtk_main_iteration (); It runs but there is no window despite having a gtk_widget_show_all call before hand. Could anyone give me some pointers on running gtk without gtk_main ? Thanks for reading-Patrick |
