GTK+编程
GTK(GIMP Toolkit)是一个生成GUI的库,按LGPL发布。最初是为GIMP写的,但目前已发展为一个功能强大、设计灵活的一个通用工具。特别是被GNOME选中使得GTK+广为流传,大有取代Motif成为X上GUI开发的标准库的趋势。当然GTK+并不要求必须在X上,事实上,目前GTK+已经有了成功的windows版本。
毫无疑问,GIMP的作者就是GTK+的作者。
GTK虽然是用C写的,即只提供C的函数调用接口,您可以使用你熟悉的语言了使用GTK,因为GTK+已经被绑定到几乎所有流行的语言上,如:C++, Guile, Perl, Python, TOM, Ada95, Objective C, Free Pascal, and Eiffel.
GTK+程序举例
#include/* This is a callback function. The data arguments are ignored * in this example. More on callbacks below. */ void hello( GtkWidget *widget, gpointer data ) { g_print ("Hello World\n"); } gint delete_event( GtkWidget *widget, GdkEvent *event, gpointer data ) { /* If you return FALSE in the "delete_event" signal handler, * GTK will emit the "destroy" signal. Returning TRUE means * you don't want the window to be destroyed. * This is useful for popping up 'are you sure you want to quit?' * type dialogs. */ g_print ("delete event occurred\n"); /* Change TRUE to FALSE and the main window will be destroyed with * a "delete_event". */ return(TRUE); } /* Another callback */ void destroy( GtkWidget *widget, gpointer data ) { gtk_main_quit(); } int main( int argc, char *argv[] ) { /* GtkWidget is the storage type for widgets */ GtkWidget *window; GtkWidget *button; /* This is called in all GTK applications. Arguments are parsed * from the command line and are returned to the application. */ gtk_init(&argc, &argv); /* create a new window */ window = gtk_window_new (GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL); /* When the window is given the "delete_event" signal (this is given * by the window manager, usually by the "close" option, or on the * titlebar), we ask it to call the delete_event () function * as defined above. The data passed to the callback * function is NULL and is ignored in the callback function. */ gtk_signal_connect (GTK_OBJECT (window), "delete_event", GTK_SIGNAL_FUNC (delete_event), NULL); /* Here we connect the "destroy" event to a signal handler. * This event occurs when we call gtk_widget_destroy() on the window, * or if we return FALSE in the "delete_event" callback. */ gtk_signal_connect (GTK_OBJECT (window), "destroy", GTK_SIGNAL_FUNC (destroy), NULL); /* Sets the border width of the window. */ gtk_container_set_border_width (GTK_CONTAINER (window), 10); /* Creates a new button with the label "Hello World". */ button = gtk_button_new_with_label ("Hello World"); /* When the button receives the "clicked" signal, it will call the * function hello() passing it NULL as its argument. The hello() * function is defined above. */ gtk_signal_connect (GTK_OBJECT (button), "clicked", GTK_SIGNAL_FUNC (hello), NULL); /* This will cause the window to be destroyed by calling * gtk_widget_destroy(window) when "clicked". Again, the destroy * signal could come from here, or the window manager. */ gtk_signal_connect_object (GTK_OBJECT (button), "clicked", GTK_SIGNAL_FUNC (gtk_widget_destroy), GTK_OBJECT (window)); /* This packs the button into the window (a gtk container). */ gtk_container_add (GTK_CONTAINER (window), button); /* The final step is to display this newly created widget. */ gtk_widget_show (button); /* and the window */ gtk_widget_show (window); /* All GTK applications must have a gtk_main(). Control ends here * and waits for an event to occur (like a key press or * mouse event). */ gtk_main (); return(0); } /* example-end */
GTK+的事件与信号处理
GTK是一个事件驱动的工具集,一个GTK应用通常在gtk_main上休眠直到一个事件发生,这时控制被传递给合适的函数。
信号绑定
gint gtk_signal_connect( GtkObject *object, gchar *name, GtkSignalFunc func, gpointer func_data ); void gtk_signal_disconnect( GtkObject *object, gint id ); void gtk_signal_handler_block( GtkObject *object, guint handler_id ); void gtk_signal_handler_unblock( GtkObject *object, guint handler_id );

注意事项
1. 当有一个缺省处理程序时,您的处理程序的返回值可能不产生任何作用,除非您使用gtk_signal_connect_after()来绑定它;
2. 为阻止缺省处理程序执行,您需要:
3. 当GTK+不够用时,可以考虑使用GDK等库。
