------- Comment #1 from jonner  2006-06-03 21:32 UTC -------
Thanks for reporting this, but this is not actually a bug. 
create_cairo_context() was introduced in gtkmm 2.9.x, so it won't be available
in previous versions (2.6.x in your case).  I suggest that you look at the
documentation that you installed (gtkmm24-docs.i386 2.6.2-2) for the tutorial
that applies to your version of gtkmm.

I apologize that this was not made more clear in the online documentation.

Thanks for the information, and for the suggestion.  I actually hadn't thought
of looking at the installed docs!

Would it make sense for me to submit a bug report about the documentation being
less-than-clear?

Well, I'm trying to think of a good way to do this.  In fact the drawing area
chapter in the tutorial already has this note:

---
Note

Before gtkmm version 2.10, drawing was mostly done with Graphics Contexts
(Gdk::GC) and other GDK drawing functions, but this has been largely superceded
by the Cairo graphics library and its C++ binding Cairomm. See the Gdk Appendix
for a description of the deprecated GDK techniques. In general, the Cairo
drawing API is simpler than the GDK one, and it is generally recommended to use
the Cairo drawing methods wherever possible in preference to the older GDK
drawing methods. 
---

Do you think something more obvious is needed?
