Re: [gtk-list] one function takes the control

[johannes nada kth se (Johannes Keukelaar)]

//I need one function that launch a dialog and only returns when this dialog 
//have been closed. The function is something like this:

You'll want to make the dialog modal (with gtk_grab_add), connect your signal 
handlers, recursively call gtk_main, then call gtk_main_quit from one of your 
signal handlers (when the user clicks the ok or cancel button, for example), 
and then the call to gtk_main will return (eventually). You'll then also want 
to call gtk_grab_remove, otherwise the rest of your application will remain 
dead. I hope that's more or less clear. (And shouldn't this be in the FAQ, more 
extensively than the answer to 4.11?)

Regards,

Johannes.
