Hey, Eric. I've just tried that function, it didn't do anything, I'm attaching my code so you can see if I'm doing this wrong.
#include <gdk/gdk.h>
#include <gio/gio.h>
#include <gtk/gtk.h>
GdkWindow* gSuperWindow;
static gboolean
press_key (gpointer data)
{
GdkWindow *window;
GdkModifierType NO_MODIFIER = (GdkModifierType) 0;
int* c = (int *) data;
window = gdk_get_default_root_window();
gdk_test_simulate_key (gSuperWindow, -1, -1, GDK_KEY_a, NO_MODIFIER,
GDK_KEY_PRESS);
gdk_test_simulate_key (gSuperWindow, -1, -1, GDK_KEY_a, NO_MODIFIER,
GDK_KEY_RELEASE);
(*c)++;
printf("Char printed\n");
if (*c < 10) {
return TRUE;
} else {
return FALSE;
}
}
static void
activate (GApplication* app)
{
GtkWidget* window;
GtkWidget* text;
window = gtk_application_window_new (GTK_APPLICATION (app));
text = gtk_entry_new ();
gtk_container_add (GTK_CONTAINER (window), text);
gtk_widget_show_all (window);
gSuperWindow = gtk_widget_get_window (window);
g_timeout_add (500, press_key, new int {0});
}
int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
GtkApplication* app;
int status;
app = gtk_application_new ("linuxrc.eric", G_APPLICATION_FLAGS_NONE);
g_signal_connect (app, "activate", G_CALLBACK (activate), app);
status = g_application_run (G_APPLICATION (app), argc, argv);
g_object_unref (app);
return status;
}
