your problem is that the gtk_widget_show_all() routine is responsible for
rendering widgets, not updating the display with the latest version of
whatever underlying pixmap is to be rendered to the screen.
you should implement a new paradigm for rendering your images, thus:
1) all pixmap rendering should happen through the expose event callback
for the drawing area (widget made at startup) responsbile for displaying
the image.
2) the routine responsible for converting the data to an image should
create the new pixmap and make this new pixmap available to the expose
event for rendering, followed by a call to gtk_widget_queue_draw_area() to
force the expose event to be called.
an example of this logic could be:
GdkPixmap *dispPmap;
GtkWidget *DrawingArea;
gboolean pmap_expose(GtkWidget *widget, GdkEventExpose *event, gpointer none)
{
gdk_draw_drawable(widget->window, widget->style->fg_gc[GTK_WIDGET_STATE
(widget)], dispPmap, event->area.x, event->area.y, event->area.x,
event->area.y, event->area.width, event->area.height);
return TRUE;
}
void makeDrawing()
{
static GdkPixmap *pixbuf;
while(!feof(fp))
{
decode();
convert_yuv_to_rgb();
if(pixbuf)
g_object_unref(pixbuf);
pixbuf =
gdk_pixbuf_new_from_data(rgb_buffer,0,0,8,width,height,width,NULL,NULL);
dispPmap = pixbuf;
gtk_widget_queue_draw_area(DrawingArea, 0, 0,
DrawingArea->allocation.width, DrawingArea->allocation.height);
while (gtk_events_pending())
gtk_main_iteration();
} // end while
g_object_unref(pixbuf);
pixmap=NULL;
}
in this manner, a single call to makeDrawing() from anywhere (internal to
the program, or as a result of a user request) will end up doing what you
want.
