As always, read the docs. Here is the documentation describing how to create new GObjects, and inherit from existing ones, implement virtual methods, etc. So if you find that you really do need to make your own subclass of the GtkCalendar you can easily do it, though as the other poster talks about, a composite widget might be the ticket too. Just remember how relationships in OOP work: The "is a" relationship means inheritance. the "has a" relationship means composite widgets. If your widget simply has a calender, then the composite widget is the way to go. If it actually is a calendar, albeit a special one, inheritance is the way to go. http://developer.gnome.org/gobject/stable/ The GOB thing I was referring to earlier: http://www.jirka.org/gob.html a specific example of using gob to extend GtkButton: http://www.jirka.org/gtk-button-count.gob.html The GOB examples you should be able to compile to straight C and use that boilerplate to implement your own pure-C extension of GtkCalendar. _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
