Problem Running Simple Example 3.1

[Chris Share <cpsmusic yahoo com>]

Hi,

I'm new to gtk and gtkmm. I'm coding on a Mac running OS X 10.4.11. I've installed gtk and gtkmm using MacPorts.

I've managed to build and run a couple of simple Cairo apps as well as a simple gtk app. However, I'm having problems with running the Simple Example (3.1) from the Programming with GTKmm book.

I'm building the Simple Example app using:

g++ -v simple.cpp -o simple `pkg-config gtkmm-2.4 --cflags --libs`

As far as I can tell, the build is ok. Here's the output:

If I then try and run the app (using "./simple"), I get the following errors:

The app appears in the Mac's dock however no window appears.

What's going on?

Cheers,
