Arvin, IIUC you're trying to "get a dump" of a toplevel gdkwindow and
related child gdkwindows, right?
in this case you don't need to access directly the dfbwindow which is
behind the toplevel gdkwindow, but just access the toplevel gdkwindow
gdk_window = gtk_widget_get_parent_window ( <child gtk widget> );
gdk_window_get_geometry ( gdk_window, &x, &y, &width, &height, &depth);
gdk_pixbuf = gdk_pixbuf_get_from_drawable (NULL, gdk_window,
gdk_colormap_get_system(),0,0,0,0,width, height);
gdk_pixbuf_save (gdk_pixbuf, <screenshot_file_name>, "png", NULL,
NULL);
hope this helps
