well, I cheated to make it build so I should expect this...

(pixbuf.php:4294570651): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: gtype.c:1806:g_type_register_static(): initialization assertion failed, use g_type_init() prior to this function (pixbuf.php:4294570651): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: file gobject.c: line 585 (g_object_new): assertion `G_TYPE_IS_OBJECT (object_type)' failed C:\php4\test\pixbuf.php has been running All I've done is added in Frank's changes from an earlier private exchange, added the 4 remaining guilty parties: gdk_pixbuf_get_from_drawable gdk_pixbuf_finalize gdk_pixbuf_render_threshold_alpha gdk_pixbuf_render_pixmap_and_mask to 'ignore' in overrides, and PHP_GTK_API'd gdk_window_new() in both the files that happens in (because it's also a drawable). I should add that the baby .dll doesn't 'see' anything in the system path and is demanding that everything (down to and including the relevant jpeg.dll and png.dll) be right there next to it before it stops complaining about existing at all, I know not why. I don't have any working gdkpixbuf scripts - if anyone with nix has a simple one that works on their box, it'd be good to see it now - so I just tried to create a new pixbuf object in a window (which may be wrong in itself, but I suspect that isn't the problem somehow). Clues, anyone? - Steph
