Re: Reflection woes

The list seems to be:

    *  --gtk-module
    * --g-fatal-warnings
    * --gtk-debug
    * --gtk-no-debug
    * --gdk-debug
    * --gdk-no-debug
    * --display
    * --sync
    * --no-xshm
    * --name
    * --class

Hiya Andrei,

Any ideas? The reason gtk_init() needs argc/argv is to parse out options like --display, etc. If we are willing to remove support for those options, then we can call gtk_init() with argc=0, argv=NULL and have it in MINIT.

Could you please clarify where '--display, etc' are used? As in, which scenarios? Thanks, - Steph
