Hi all, While playing around with the GtkDrawingArea widget, I came across something that's got me scratching my head. Perhaps I'm just not thinking straight this morning, but... Why does a GtkDrawingArea need to be connected to an expose event before its GdkWindow is instantiated? This works: <?php function doExpose($widget, $event) { $graphicsContext = new GdkGC($widget->window); var_dump($graphicsContext); } $window = new GtkWindow(); $drawingArea = new GtkDrawingArea(); $window->connect_simple('destroy', array('Gtk', 'main_quit')); $drawingArea->connect('expose-event', 'doExpose'); $window->add($drawingArea); $window->show_all(); Gtk::main(); ?> And this doesn't: <?php function doExpose($graphicsContext) { var_dump($graphicsContext); } // doExpose() $window = new GtkWindow(); $drawingArea = new GtkDrawingArea(); $graphicsContext = new GdkGC($drawingArea->window); $window->connect_simple('destroy', array('Gtk', 'main_quit')); $drawingArea->connect_simple('expose-event', 'doExpose', $graphicsContext); $window->add($drawingArea); $window->show_all(); Gtk::main(); ?> Any insights would very much appreciated. -Ron T.
