How to run a gtk demo?

Question

They are located under:

share\gtk-2.0\demo 

But none of them contain the main function, how can I do the following textscroll.c :

 /* Text Widget/Automatic scrolling * * This example demonstrates how to use the gravity of * GtkTextMarks to keep a text view scrolled to the bottom * while appending text. */ #include <gtk/gtk.h> #include "demo-common.h" /* Scroll to the end of the buffer. */ static gboolean scroll_to_end (GtkTextView *textview) { GtkTextBuffer *buffer; GtkTextIter iter; GtkTextMark *mark; char *spaces; static int count; buffer = gtk_text_view_get_buffer (textview); /* Get "end" mark. It located at the end of buffer because * of right gravity */ mark = gtk_text_buffer_get_mark (buffer, "end"); gtk_text_buffer_get_iter_at_mark (buffer, &iter, mark); /* and insert some text at its position, the iter will be * revalidated after insertion to point to the end of inserted text */ spaces = g_strnfill (count++, ' '); gtk_text_buffer_insert (buffer, &iter, "\n", -1); gtk_text_buffer_insert (buffer, &iter, spaces, -1); gtk_text_buffer_insert (buffer, &iter, "Scroll to end scroll to end scroll " "to end scroll to end ", -1); g_free (spaces); /* Now scroll the end mark onscreen. */ gtk_text_view_scroll_mark_onscreen (textview, mark); /* Emulate typewriter behavior, shift to the left if we * are far enough to the right. */ if (count > 150) count = 0; return TRUE; } /* Scroll to the bottom of the buffer. */ static gboolean scroll_to_bottom (GtkTextView *textview) { GtkTextBuffer *buffer; GtkTextIter iter; GtkTextMark *mark; char *spaces; static int count; buffer = gtk_text_view_get_buffer (textview); /* Get end iterator */ gtk_text_buffer_get_end_iter (buffer, &iter); /* and insert some text at it, the iter will be revalidated * after insertion to point to the end of inserted text */ spaces = g_strnfill (count++, ' '); gtk_text_buffer_insert (buffer, &iter, "\n", -1); gtk_text_buffer_insert (buffer, &iter, spaces, -1); gtk_text_buffer_insert (buffer, &iter, "Scroll to bottom scroll to bottom scroll " "to bottom scroll to bottom", -1); g_free (spaces); /* Move the iterator to the beginning of line, so we don't scroll * in horizontal direction */ gtk_text_iter_set_line_offset (&iter, 0); /* and place the mark at iter. the mark will stay there after we * insert some text at the end because it has right gravity. */ mark = gtk_text_buffer_get_mark (buffer, "scroll"); gtk_text_buffer_move_mark (buffer, mark, &iter); /* Scroll the mark onscreen. */ gtk_text_view_scroll_mark_onscreen (textview, mark); /* Shift text back if we got enough to the right. */ if (count > 40) count = 0; return TRUE; } static guint setup_scroll (GtkTextView *textview, gboolean to_end) { GtkTextBuffer *buffer; GtkTextIter iter; buffer = gtk_text_view_get_buffer (textview); gtk_text_buffer_get_end_iter (buffer, &iter); if (to_end) { /* If we want to scroll to the end, including horizontal scrolling, * then we just create a mark with right gravity at the end of the * buffer. It will stay at the end unless explicitely moved with * gtk_text_buffer_move_mark. */ gtk_text_buffer_create_mark (buffer, "end", &iter, FALSE); /* Add scrolling timeout. */ return g_timeout_add (50, (GSourceFunc) scroll_to_end, textview); } else { /* If we want to scroll to the bottom, but not scroll horizontally, * then an end mark won't do the job. Just create a mark so we can * use it with gtk_text_view_scroll_mark_onscreen, we'll position it * explicitely when needed. Use left gravity so the mark stays where * we put it after inserting new text. */ gtk_text_buffer_create_mark (buffer, "scroll", &iter, TRUE); /* Add scrolling timeout. */ return g_timeout_add (100, (GSourceFunc) scroll_to_bottom, textview); } } static void remove_timeout (GtkWidget *window, gpointer timeout) { g_source_remove (GPOINTER_TO_UINT (timeout)); } static void create_text_view (GtkWidget *hbox, gboolean to_end) { GtkWidget *swindow; GtkWidget *textview; guint timeout; swindow = gtk_scrolled_window_new (NULL, NULL); gtk_box_pack_start (GTK_BOX (hbox), swindow, TRUE, TRUE, 0); textview = gtk_text_view_new (); gtk_container_add (GTK_CONTAINER (swindow), textview); timeout = setup_scroll (GTK_TEXT_VIEW (textview), to_end); /* Remove the timeout in destroy handler, so we don't try to * scroll destroyed widget. */ g_signal_connect (textview, "destroy", G_CALLBACK (remove_timeout), GUINT_TO_POINTER (timeout)); } GtkWidget * do_textscroll (GtkWidget *do_widget) { static GtkWidget *window = NULL; if (!window) { GtkWidget *hbox; window = gtk_window_new (GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL); g_signal_connect (window, "destroy", G_CALLBACK (gtk_widget_destroyed), &window); gtk_window_set_default_size (GTK_WINDOW (window), 600, 400); hbox = gtk_hbox_new (TRUE, 6); gtk_container_add (GTK_CONTAINER (window), hbox); create_text_view (hbox, TRUE); create_text_view (hbox, FALSE); } if (!gtk_widget_get_visible (window)) gtk_widget_show_all (window); else gtk_widget_destroy (window); return window; }

You can also view the source code online: http://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk+/tree/demos/gtk-demo

The main() function is at the very end of main.c

EDIT:

Here is a simple main() function that you can add to the end of the file. You should also remove the #include "demo-common.h" from the beginning.

 int main(int argc, char **argv) { GtkWidget *window; gtk_init(&argc, &argv); window = do_textscroll(NULL); g_signal_connect(window, "destroy", G_CALLBACK(gtk_main_quit), NULL); gtk_main(); return 0; } 

Answer 2

You have to run

 gtk-demo 

from the command line. A window with all the demos will appear. You can view the source code and run the demos by double-clicking on them.

Update 2015: Run %gtkdir%/bin/gtk3-demo.exe
