Re: Gnome::Glade::Xml::create_from_buffer question

[Ed Leaver <eleaver sterlingseismic com>]

I use Glade with the same intent of not having to load UI Xml files at startup. I'm currently using glade-2.6.8 and glademm-2.6.0. Glade has a mode to do this directly, i.e., it writes C++ header files and parent class files containing the parent constructor and destructor. This apparently (from what I can see) has nothing to do with the Gnome::Glade::Xml namespace, nor (again from what I can see) does it even use libglademm. No patch scripts are needed. Is there some reason you wish to have it both ways? I admit to never having used the Gnome::Glade::Xml namespace, and thus am totally ignorant of its advantages and features - ymmv.

Hi guys,

I am using Glade version 2.10.0 and libglademm-2.4 (2.6.1).  Because I 
do not want my application to be dependent on loading anything at run 
time, I decided to use Gnome::Glade::Xml::create_from_buffer in order to 
bring my UI into my application.  This question is probably off topic, 
but I cannot seem to figure out how to make glade output anything that 
can be included in my application (like a ".h" file) that can be used in 
conjunction with the aforementioned creation routine.

If I'm off topic, the please give me a hint as to which list I need to 
consult.

Btw, I wrote my own little helper application that reads the ".glade" 
file and creates a ".h" file with this format:

const char *<desired pointer name> = "
// all xml code content from glade in here with newlines and beginning 
line whitespace stripped out,
// and with all double quotes converted to single quotes
";

The reason I want to use the native "Glade way" to do this is that I do 
not want other programmers in my organization to have to use my 
conversion application if possible.

Thanks!
