Description</h1>
<p>gtkmm is the official C++ interface for the popular GUI library GTK+. Highlights include typesafe callbacks, and a comprehensive set of widgets that are easily extensible via inheritance.</p>
<p>For instance, see <a class="el" href="group__Widgets.html">Widgets</a>, <a class="el" href="group__Dialogs.html">Dialogs</a>, <a class="el" href="group__TreeView.html">TreeView</a> and <a class="el" href="group__TextView.html">TextView</a>.</p>
<p>See also the <a href="http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtkmm-tutorial/stable/">Programming with gtkmm</a> book.</p>
<h1><a class="anchor" id="features"></a>
Features</h1>
<ul>
<li>GTK+’s mature, capable set of <a class="el" href="group__Widgets.html">Widgets</a> widgets. See <a href="http://www.gtk.org/">the GTK+ website</a> for more information.</li>
<li>Use inheritance to derive custom widgets.</li>
<li>Type-safe signal handlers (slots), in standard C++, using <a href="http://libsigc.sourceforge.net/">libsigc++</a>.</li>
<li>Polymorphism.</li>
<li>Use of the Standard C++ Library, including strings, containers and iterators.</li>
<li>Full internationalisation with UTF8.</li>
<li>Complete C++ memory management.<ul>
<li>Member instances or dynamic new and delete.</li>
<li>Optional automatic deletion of child widgets.</li>
<li>No manual reference-counting.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Full use of C++ namespaces.</li>
<li>No macros.</li>
</ul>
<h1><a class="anchor" id="basics"></a>
Basic Usage</h1>
<p>Include the gtkmm header: </p><div class="fragment"><div class="line"><span class="preprocessor">#include <gtkmm.h></span></div>
</div><!-- fragment --><p> (You may include individual headers, such as <code>gtkmm/button.h</code> instead.)</p>
<p>If your source file is <code>program.cc</code>, you can compile it with: </p><div class="fragment"><div class="line">g++ program.cc -o program `pkg-config --cflags --libs gtkmm-3.0`</div>
</div><!-- fragment --><p>Alternatively, if using autoconf, use the following in <code>configure.ac:</code> </p><div class="fragment"><div class="line">PKG_CHECK_MODULES([GTKMM], [gtkmm-3.0])</div>
</div><!-- fragment --><p> Then use the generated <code>GTKMM_CFLAGS</code> and <code>GTKMM_LIBS</code> variables in the project <code>Makefile.am</code> files. For example: </p><div class="fragment"><div class="line">program_CPPFLAGS = $(GTKMM_CFLAGS)</div>
<div class="line">program_LDADD = $(GTKMM_LIBS)</div>
</div><!-- fragment --> </div></div><!-- contents -->
