Re: [platform-swt-dev] GTK:How to force a shell to paint?

[Steve_Northover@xxxxxxx]

Doesn't seem to work.  Here is some example code.
BTW:  You are my hero for your post about the "sucky API's".
Way to tell 'em!

Steve

public static void main (String [] args) {
        int width = 32, height = 32;
        OS.gtk_init_check (new int [] {0}, null);
        int shellHandle = OS.gtk_window_new (OS.GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL);
        OS.gtk_widget_show_now (shellHandle);
        
//        Neither call one works
//        OS.gdk_window_process_updates (window, false);
        OS.gdk_window_process_all_updates ();

//        Works but processes too many events
//        while (OS.gtk_events_pending () != 0) OS.gtk_main_iteration ();        
        
        int window = OS.GTK_WIDGET_WINDOW (shellHandle);
        int gc = OS.gdk_gc_new (window);
        OS.gdk_draw_rectangle(window, gc, 1, 1, 1, width-2, height-2);
        OS.gdk_gc_destroy (gc);
        while (true) {
                OS.gtk_main_iteration ();        
        }
}

I'm not familiar with XmUpdateDisplay; reading its man page, I think
gdk_window_process_updates() is maybe equivalent.

You'll cause flicker and inefficiency calling that indiscriminately,
of course. "Be careful"

Sounds perfect.
