RE: date/time in statusbar

["Foster, Gareth" <gareth foster siemens com>]

Maybe you need to use a Glibmm timeout/callback? It goes something like ...

Glib::timeout_signal.connect(sigc::memfunc(*this, &MainPage::checkTime),
1000);

Look up the Glibmm docs on http://gtkmm.org for the full documentation.

Cheers,

Gaz
