I am trying to learn more about glib/gtk+ programming, so for a first program I decided to write a wrapper for a command line program (in my case, Cisco's VPN client). I am getting unexpected results though. I am using g_spawn_async_with_pipes to start the command line tool(vpnclient), then creating a g_io_channel from vpnclient's stdout and adding a watch. What I have found though, is that my handler never gets called till vpnclient is killed. I have created a test program that produces the same output as the real vpnclient, and that one works just fine, so I can't understand what I'm doing wrong. I suspect that the program is doing some interactive-terminal-specific things that a simple spawning of the app can't reproduce, but I'm still not sure where to go from there. (I tried running "bash -i", thinking I could have bash launch vpnclient but it doesn't seem to be controllable through g_spawn_async_with_pipes either...) Thanks for any suggestions you can give. -- Mark Roach _______________________________________________ gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
