> so I'll have to build Gtkmm 2.4.x rather than 2.5/2.6.  Is that OK?

That's probably a good idea to keep things simple.

If you don't take this further then please write a short summary of the status
of this bug, so that it can be continued later.

Thanks Chris. I think I'll put this example in glib/examples (after changing it
slightly to use the existing coding style), as an example of something more
advanced. Then we can point people to it and ask for discussion. It doesn't mean
much to me so far, just because I don't use IOChannel anyway. If you then think
it's a good idea to add it to Glib, then you can make the case for it, saying
what it's good for, compared to some existing alternative. Ideally, Daniel
Elstner would take a look.

Claudio, I'll get around to processing your patch soon. Sorry.

Aren't some sanity-checks already performed in tests/ ? 
And indeed the demos don't take so long, to compile, but they still take up some
8 min from ~20 min total buildtime.

Also they're (just like the examples) enabled by default, so if anyone disables
them it's his own responsibility.

Anyway, it's not that important, i just thought i'd be a 'small gain, no pain'
situation :)

That's fine.  It would be rather different from the rest of glibmm anyway, as it
is not just a wrapper of the C library.  The main case for it is that (a) it is
a frequent moan that there is no standard way of attaching a file descriptor to
a [io]stream given that it is so frequently needed (it is not even possible to
create a safe temporary file with standard C++) (b) there are streambuffers for
file descriptors available, but glibmm has the advantage of a certain degree of
platform independence - Glib::IOChannel will take some windows file descriptors
and windows sockets and (c) using streambuffers is the right way to do it in C++.

It would probably be worth adding a detach() function and I want to check that
all the GlibIOChannel errors are correctly handled.  If you put the example in
the examples directory I will check it out of CVS and send you any necessary
patches.

Chris.
