I've try:

   statusbar->queue_draw();
   gtk_main_iteration();

    func(); // Lot of CPU use

and also

   gtk_widget_draw_queue((GtkWidget *)statusbar->gobj());
   gtk_main_iteration();

   func(); // Lot of CPU use

I've use gtk/gtk.h to get the gtk functions in C

But nothing. The text is displayed after de "hard" process. :-(
