You can't. Widgets are only meaningful in context of GTK+, and are internal to each application's process space. X only knows about X windows, and that's the only type of info you can get. You can't map from XID to <some place in address space of other process>, which is what GTK+ widgets effectively are. > What i have to do is check what is type name of clicked window, for > example > If i clicked edit control i should receive GtkEntry, if i clicked button > control > I should receive GtkButton, i use for this > g_type_name(GTK_WIDGET_TYPE(pWidget)) > But i dont have this pointer pWidget:/ for controls in my window is > simple to get widget object > But from other app i dont have idea how can i do it:/ Only way for you would be to use ATK (accessibility toolkit), which does know about widgets (using special support built in in GTK+). Note that it requires ATK to be enabled and support libraries to be installed, and also won't give you pointer to something you can apply GTK_WIDGET_TYPE() on, instead it will return set of information describing role and value of widget suitable for accessibility application. > Maybe i can distinguish types of object in xlib or gdk????
