Sorry for the delay. It looks like I will have to file a report as after building a simple C program I'm getting a segfault calling gdk_pixbuf_new_from_file. I will get around to that some time this weekend along with testing the other more complex methods.
In the mean time, however, I also built another small C program. This one using gtk_image_new_from_file. Suffice it to say this works fine in C, but Gtk2::Image->new_from_file simply does not. It just shows the little page icon with a red X. Of course, the same script in linux runs fine. I can provide either the C code or the (very) simple perl script on request. I tried looking through the xs code...but it looks like there is very little translation for this function. At this point I'm willing to settle for any way to display an image in gtk2 on windows, so, any suggestions are welcome :) Thanks, T.J. > > Do other gtk+ programs work correctly with loading images on your > machine? > > At this point, if you have the ability, i'd say port your example code > to C and verify that the C program still can't load the images. > > If the C program can't load the images, that means that your gtk+ is > broken somehow, and the bug report goes to gnome bugzilla. > > If the C program can load the images, then something is wrong with > your setup at runtime.
