We used code from gnome-utils's gnome-screenshot/gnome-screenshot.c and gnome-screenshot/screenshot-utils.c to add a capture capability to java-gnome (we wanted window decorations and all, not just the GdkWindow behind something; the drop shadows are nice too). We use this when generating our API documentation, for example: http://java-gnome.sourceforge.net/4.0/doc/api/org/gnome/gtk/AboutDialog.html I certainly appreciate now that gathering a screenshot (window borders and all) is very tricky and involves some voodoo mucking about with X. I am quite thankful that such code existed to be reused. Unfortunately it's not a library as yet, so we had to copy it manually. Our import of it was a bit hack-and-slash, but our versions of the above two files, as gnome_screenshot_capture.c and gnome_screenshot_utils.c, can be found in a checkout of a java-gnome in the src/jni/ directory, ie http://research.operationaldynamics.com/bzr/java-gnome/mainline/src/jni/ AfC Sydney -- Andrew Frederick Cowie Operational Dynamics is an operations and engineering consultancy focusing on IT strategy, organizational architecture, systems review, and effective procedures for change management.
