Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] GTK+ issues

Hey all.

 

 I’ve come across a new problem that I’m having trouble with.  I need my plug-in to be able bring up a pop-up screen so that I can get the user to enter some information.  I had it working using the windoze API and it was working fine, however, obviously it’s not portable.  So I want to do the same thing in GTK.  Problem is, I can’t seem to get gtk to bring up anything without getting the most general error message possible. 

 

I get the error:

 

Gdk-ERROR **: That is a fatal error aborting…

 

Ironically enough.. this error is in a pop up.

 

The code I’m attempting to execute is :

 

if(gtk_init_check(NULL,NULL)==1){

            if(writeFile!=NULL){

                        fprintf(writeFile,"GTK is valid");

                        fflush(writeFile);

                                   

            }

 

}else{

            if(writeFile!=NULL){

                        fprintf(writeFile,"GTK isn't Valid");

                        fflush(writeFile);

                       

            }

 

 

}

 

GtkWidget *window=NULL;

window = gtk_window_new (GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL);

gtk_widget_show (window);

gtk_main();

 

 

I get the response that “GTK is valid”

 

And I get the error when executing:

window = gtk_window_new (GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL);

 

Trying to do something similar with a dialog fails when I try to show the dialog.

 

I know this is a lot to read.  Any help from the GUI masters at Wireshark would be appreciated.
