Re: vte_terminal_fork_command behavior

[Ignacio Butler <ibutler gmail com>]

I'm not sure, i've tested only running in some gnome version from
Archlinux repositories.

I'll try to perform more tests before submit any kind of bug report.

Maybe somebody could try this little program:

#include<gtk/gtk.h>
#include<vte/vte.h>
#include<stdio.h>

void
fork_done(VteTerminal *vte, gpointer udata)
{
       printf("Process died!!\n");
}

gboolean
window_deleted( GtkWidget *w, GdkEvent *ev, gpointer data)
{
       GtkWidget *vte = (GtkWidget*)data;
       char *text = "\n";

       printf("Finish command\n");
       vte_terminal_feed_child(VTE_TERMINAL(vte), text, strlen(text));

       gtk_widget_hide_all(w);

       return TRUE;
}

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
       char *params[] = {"/bin/sh", "-c", "ls -l ~/",NULL};
       int child;

       gtk_init(&argc, &argv);

       GtkWidget *window = gtk_window_new (GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL);
       GtkWidget *table = gtk_table_new (1, 1, TRUE);
       GtkWidget *vte1 = vte_terminal_new ();

       gtk_signal_connect(GTK_OBJECT(vte1), "child-exited",
G_CALLBACK(fork_done), NULL);
       gtk_signal_connect(G_OBJECT(window), "delete_event",
G_CALLBACK(window_deleted), vte1);
       gtk_table_attach_defaults (table, GTK_WIDGET(vte1), 0, 1, 0, 1);
       gtk_container_add (window, table);
       gtk_widget_show_all (window);

       child = vte_terminal_fork_command (VTE_TERMINAL(vte1), "sh", params,
NULL, "~/", FALSE, FALSE, FALSE);
       printf("Child: %d\n", child);

       gtk_main ();

       return 0;
}

i've compiled this way: gcc vte.c `pkg-config --cflags --libs
gtk+-2.0` `pkg-config --cflags --libs vte` (or something like this).

Anyway, I'll run my own tests but I can survive with this "feature" hehehe

Cheers
