Re: bells and whistle in Gtkmm

Of course it will not beep! What do you expect ?
You are not using the correct method that has been explained to you.

The API was designed like this for a reason, In order to understand why, you need
to dig through the C/GDK code.

Now the fact that you are ignoring all the explanations given to you means that I'm
wasting my time replying now. I'm out of this discussion.

Cheers,

P.S. Last advice: Compile this code via
"g++ -o d d.cc `pkg-config gtkmm-2.4 --cflags --libs`"
and it should work for you:
== Begin d.cc ==
#include <gtkmm.h>

void foo() {
  Gdk::Display::get_default()->beep();
}

int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
  Gtk::Main kit(argc, argv);

  Gtk::Window w;

  Gtk::Button b("foo");
  w.add(b);
  w.show_all();

  b.signal_clicked().connect(sigc::ptr_fun(&foo));
  kit.run(w);

  return 0;
}

== END d.cc ==
