Hello, I need to create a window with a couple of widgets in it inside an existing window in another application which invokes my program by passing it the XID of this existing window. So I use gdk_window_foreign_new() to create a GdkWindow for it and then create a GtkWindow which I reparent under this GdkWindow using gdk_window_reparent() and finally create the other widgets inside this GtkWindow as usual. So far so good. However the problems happen if the foreign window is destroyed because then all the GTK windows are destroyed too and as GTK didn't ask it for it to happen it gets upset and complains about the "unexpectedly destroyed" GdkWindows (from gdk_window_destroy_notify() in my GTK+ version which is 2.8.20 from Debian Etch). And at the same time the various GtkWidgets I created are not destroyed and, worse, if I do destroy them, I get X BadWindow errors as all GdkWindows of these widgets don't exist any more. Does anybody have any idea about how to deal with it? I thought about using gdk_window_add_filter() and reacting to DestroyNotify event myself but I don't really see what can I do (short of ignoring them completely which would probably take care of the warnings but not of the memory leaks). From reading GDK sources it seems calling _gdk_window_destroy() with TRUE second argument would be the right thing to do -- but I can't do this as this function is private. Is there any other way to make this work or maybe a completely different and simpler/better approach? Thanks in advance for any ideas, VZ _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
