If you don't like writing the long return types, it's better to use type inference in GCC 4.4. You need to pass -std=c++0x to enable C++0x mode. Then it becomes: auto actor = Clutter::Actor::create(); You can use this without any changes on the library side. It works at least with glibmm and giomm.
