Thanks Mohamed for the help!
I read the documentation and it is exactly what I am looking for and
more. However, the compiler complains saying that Display() is
protected and in Gdk::Display::Display *is a 'protected' method (?)
What can I do to fix this problem?

Thanks
-------
#include <gdkmm/display.h>
class SomeClass{
 ...
public:
...Gdk::Display display;
   void someMethod();
};
---------\
void SomeClass::someMethod(){
display.beep();
}
    

You should get the default display with Gdk::Display::get_default(),
which is a static funcion.

Alternatively you can just call gdk_beep(), defined in gdk/gdk.h.  It is
a wrapper for gdk_display_beep(gdk_display_get_default()), or it's
gdkmm equivalent Gdk::Display::get_default()->beep().

Humm, I find that very obscure, can you elaborate a bit more?
