Creare una finestra mediante le funzioni del API di GTK+3
GTK+3 è una libreria per la creazione di interfacce grafiche utente. Una importante funzione di tale libreria è quella della realizzazione di finestre comprensive di oggetti, operando con i quali l'utente può generare degli eventi.
E' innanzitutto necessario avere installata nel sistema e richiamare in Gambas la libreria condivisa: "libgtk-3.so.0.2411.32 ".
Mostriamo di seguito un semplice esempio, nel quale verrà creata una finestra contenente un Button avente un'immagine. Cliccando su tale tasto, si causerà la chiusura della finestra prima creata e la scrittura di un avviso nella console.
All'interno del codice la funzione "gtk_main()" pone in attesa l'applicazione, passando il controllo degli eventi ad una specifica funzione.
La sollevazione di evento genera un segnale che verrà gestito attraverso la chiamata di un'apposita funzione dell'evento. [nota 1]
Tale gestore del segnale dell'evento è rappresentato dalla funzione esterna "g_signal_connect_data()", nella quale la funzione specificata come terzo argomento è una funzione callback, mentre il quarto argomento, invece, rappresenta gli eventuali dati da passare alla funzione callback.
Il primo degli parametri della funzione di ritorno (callback) rappresenta l'oggetto che scatena l'evento (in questo esempio il Button).
