I have a gtkmm app (gui built with glade). It has several buttons, and one DrawingArea widget.
I use the builder's "create_from_file" to load the gui, get pointers to the widgets, and then (try to) connect signals through widget->signal_xxx().connect(). This works fine for the buttons, but I can't get it to work for the DrawingArea. For the buttons: p_builder->get_widget("button_x", p_button); p_button->signal_clicked().connect( sigc::bind<int>(sigc::mem_fun(*this, &CMy_GUI::on_button_pressed), x)); where: x - specifies a particular button, and - as an int - is passed to the signal handler (CMy_GUI::on_button_pressed); As I said, for the buttons, this works great. But I can't seem to get the right syntax for the DrawingArea widgets signal_draw().connect(). I am guessing this has to do with the Cairo::Context argument being passed to the callback. (FWIW: for this case, I don't need to pass any additional parameters, as with the buttons. ) I thought of trying to use a derived class, and overload the virtual callback function (on_draw() ), but I don't see how to connect that with the widget created by the builder (loaded from the glade file). Any help greatly appreciated.
