[gtk-server] Re: How to access to the pixbuf data

Hi Peter,

Thanks for your answer.

As I have to use the client remotely, I need to add new GTK-SERVER
calls to read/write data at the given address, like:

gtk_server_set_data, NONE, NONE, LONG (address), BASE64 (data)
gtk_server_get_data, NONE, BASE64 (data),  LONG (address), LONG (length)

Am I right ?

Hi there,

First I would define the call 'gdk_pixbuf_new_from_data()' in the
configfile as follows:

FUNCTION_NAME = gdk_pixbuf_new_from_data, NONE, WIDGET, 9, STRING,
LONG, BOOL, LONG, LONG, LONG, LONG, NULL, NULL


The keyword 'STRING' in fact represents a C character pointer. If you
define your image somewhere in memory, and pass the pointer to that
memory as a number here, it should work.

If you plan to use 'gdk_pixbuf_get_pixels()' as well:

FUNCTION_NAME = gdk_pixbuf_get_pixels, NONE, STRING, 1, WIDGET


This will return a (char-) pointer, which in fact is a number pointing
to memory.

Please let me know if this works.

Regards
Peter
