Functions such as gdk_pixmap_create_from_xpm() require a valid window as a parameter. During the initialisation phase of an application, a valid window may not be available without showing a window, which may be inappropriate. In order to avoid this, a function such as gdk_pixmap_colormap_create_from_xpm can be used, as in:
char *pixfile = "foo.xpm";
GtkWidget *top, *box, *pixw;
GdkPixmap *pixmap, *pixmap_mask;
top = gtk_window_new (GKT_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL);
box = gtk_hbox_new (FALSE, 4);
gtk_conainer_add (GTK_CONTAINER(top), box);
pixmap = gdk_pixmap_colormap_create_from_xpm (
NULL, gtk_widget_get_colormap(top),
&pixmap_mask, NULL, pixfile);
pixw = gtk_pixmap_new (pixmap, pixmap_mask);
gdk_pixmap_unref (pixmap);
gdk_pixmap_unref (pixmap_mask); |
