Hi, I got from GDB this error for my application: Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x0804b349 in expose_event (widget=0x80ac738, event=0x0, g=0x0) at graph_edit.c:248 248 gdk_draw_drawable (widget->window, (gdb) In this app, there are 2 timelines for graphic application (ripped and modified from Eric Harlow source code chapter12/sysmon). I have defined: typedef struct { GdkDrawable *pixmap; GdkGC *gc; } typGraphics; extern GtkWidget *timeline_area1; extern GtkWidget *timeline_area2; static typGraphics *g1; static typGraphics *g2; ....... ....... /* --- Create the drawing area --- */ timeline_area1 = gtk_drawing_area_new (); timeline_area2 = gtk_drawing_area_new (); /* --- Size --- */ gtk_drawing_area_size (GTK_DRAWING_AREA (timeline_area1), 200, 200); gtk_drawing_area_size (GTK_DRAWING_AREA (timeline_area2), 200, 200); /* --- Make it visible --- */ gtk_widget_show (timeline_area1); gtk_widget_show (timeline_area2); /* --- We need the expose_event and the configure_event --- */ gtk_signal_connect (GTK_OBJECT (timeline_area1), "expose_event", (GtkSignalFunc) expose_event, g1); gtk_signal_connect (GTK_OBJECT(timeline_area1),"configure_event", (GtkSignalFunc) configure_event, (gpointer) g1); gtk_signal_connect (GTK_OBJECT (timeline_area2), "expose_event", (GtkSignalFunc) expose_event, g2); gtk_signal_connect (GTK_OBJECT(timeline_area2),"configure_event", (GtkSignalFunc) configure_event, (gpointer) g2); and for "configure_event": static gint expose_event (GtkWidget *widget, GdkEventExpose *event, typGraphics *g) { /* --- Copy it right over. --- */ gdk_draw_drawable (widget->window, widget->style->fg_gc[GTK_WIDGET_STATE (widget)], g->pixmap, event->area.x, event->area.y, event->area.x, event->area.y, event->area.width, event->area.height); return FALSE; } Maybe problem is for 'typGraphics *g' in expose_Event(..) but for generic 'gpointer g' I have not solution...
