RE: gtk-list digest, Vol 1 #1024 - 11 msgs

Okay. I didn't include any OS particulars before because I've had no problems with it prior to this. Matter of fact, no matter which *nix I use there is always a problem with packages I find. Pretty much the same error on all distros too.

The GTK+ package downloaded (latest-stable) was missing 1 header. Found it.
The pango package downloaded (1.0.1) was missing 1 header. Found it.
gdkconfig was missing from the GTK+ distro (listed as being included) but found it.

Had to manualy try to link all dirs because GLIB2+, Pango, GTK+, pkg-config would not pick up the parameters no matter how hard I tried.

Specs:
SuSE 8.0 (has latest kernel-stable, glib2.0.x, kde3.0...yada yada)
**standard distro striaght from SuSE box**
Hardware shouldn't matter all that much here, but:
Tyan Tiger DualProc
(x2) AMD XP 1.4s
512MB RAM
Voodoo4 4500 agp
(x2) 60GB WD HDD IDE
(x2) 8GB Seagate ext scsi
3COM nic 10/100/1000

GTK+ & other distros compiled using makefiles dirstord w/them.
Only one error during the ./configure routine: glib2.0.x or better required.
pango not found, pkg-config update not found and so forth.
The RPMs didn't seem to actually get things running the way they were supposed to, so I had to manually copy, compile, configure everything.

After pulling out all the stops, and my hair, all the necessary preqs were in the box needed by GTK+. Then came the internal missing headers which were either left out of the package, or were lost during dl(weird).
After hunting down the lost files, I finally got everything basically configured and wrote an example GTK proggie from a book just to test it.
No Go. Now it cant link to a crap load more files, and all sortz of syntax errors in the code. (about 4 pages of errors for 10 lines of code)
Looking at all the errors, it pretty much seems like half of the libs are linked, and the other half are out playing footsies.

Also, i tried to change my PATH to reflect some of the other directories just to be certain things were ok, but the new path is not sticking for some reason.
Running env shows pretty much what things are, and I already set up the links in the lib.so.conf (unless that document was wrong too or i had a brain fart)

(bare in mind i know that normally the most simple issues are what cause the problems, but whatever "normal" stuff i left out is because i'm quite certain its not the cause of the problem)

Thnx

Good day.

I've been through your online FAQ, as well as about 10 others.
After a fairly lengthy process, and lack of documentation, I got everything needed for the GTK+.

Long story short, I can't get anything to compile. It keeps telling me it can't find whatever.h and the list is very long=
 As if it isn't linked correctly.

Please help. If I have by some mysterious way missed whatever documentation helps with this particular problem, I apologi=
ze. But a link to such a document would be greatly appreciated. There doesn't seem to be enough "literal" text docs out t=
here for getting things up and running.

What platform? Did you install it yourself? Were there any errors in
the install? Are you compiling by hand, or are you using a Makefile?

i can't begin to understand the problem you're describing because of a
lack of information. however, it sounds as if you might be making the
all too common mistake of thinking you can fork and then continue
using the GTK setup already established in the parent. you cannot do
this.

didn't you want to change the background color? That would have been
style->bg[] then.

why don't you try with GDK_BUTTON_RELEASE_MASK? After all, the release
event is what you are interested in, isn't it?

Subject: Moving a window wm independent

Hi all,

I want to move a whole window around. I tried

gdk_window_move and gtk_widget_set_uposition.

They both do pretty the same. But the result depends on the windowmanager. sawfish for example puts the window _with_ the window border at the coordinate, enlightenment puts the inner area, i.e. _without_ the window border, at the coordinate.
My problem is, that if I ask the coordinate via

gdk_window_get_origin, gdk_window_get_root_origin or gdk_window_get_position,

I got window manager independent answers. But I don't know how to set the position wm independently.

How is it possible to move a window independent of the window manager?

what about gtk_window_move()? Did you try that?

Does anyone know who do I set the text of a GtkEntry?
I am using gtk_entry_set_text(GtkEntry * entry,gchar
*text). But it keeps appending to the current text!
Could anyone give me an explanation?

From: "Lourdes Maldonado" <maldonado ibiquity com>
To: <gtk-list gnome org>


I am using the following code to update my list but I noticed that my
memory usage increases with almost every call I make to
gtk_clist_append.

(btw: I commented out the call to the systemstatus_update function and
the memory usage increase disappear so I am pretty sure the problem
exists in this function).

------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
void
systemstatus_update(UI_ERROR_WARNING_BODY_CMD_t *body)
{
   gint i;
   static gint row =3D 0;
   gchar *message;

   message =3D body->data;=20

   row =3D gtk_clist_append
            (GTK_CLIST(SYSTEMSTATUSi_entries.clst_messages),
             &message);

   /* Delete old rows when the count of rows gets beyond 20. */
   if (row > 20)
   {
      gtk_clist_freeze(GTK_CLIST(SYSTEMSTATUSi_entries.clst_messages));

      for (i =3D 20; i >=3D 0; i--)
      {
         gtk_clist_remove
                (GTK_CLIST(SYSTEMSTATUSi_entries.clst_messages),
                 i);
      }
     =20
      gtk_clist_thaw(GTK_CLIST(SYSTEMSTATUSi_entries.clst_messages));

      row =3D 0;
   }
}
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?  I am using gtk 1.2.

Thanks,

Lourdes Maldonado
