Some GTK instructions and usage
How to setup GTK 4 Library within the project:
Step 1: in Msys2 terminal you write this pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-gtk4 \
Step 2: pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-toolchain base-devel
Step 3: have or make a c Project codebase.
Step 4: In main.c you want to try the code so copy paste: ->
#include <gtk/gtk.h>
static void
print_hello (GtkWidget *widget,
gpointer data)
{
g_print ("Hello World\n");
}
static void
activate (GtkApplication *app,
gpointer user_data)
{
GtkWidget *window;
GtkWidget *button;
window = gtk_application_window_new (app);
gtk_window_set_title (GTK_WINDOW (window), "Window");
gtk_window_set_default_size (GTK_WINDOW (window), 200, 200);
button = gtk_button_new_with_label ("Hello World");
g_signal_connect (button, "clicked", G_CALLBACK (print_hello), NULL);
gtk_window_set_child (GTK_WINDOW (window), button);
gtk_window_present (GTK_WINDOW (window));
}
int
main (int argc,
char **argv)
{
GtkApplication *app;
int status;
app = gtk_application_new ("org.gtk.example", G_APPLICATION_DEFAULT_FLAGS);
g_signal_connect (app, "activate", G_CALLBACK (activate), NULL);
status = g_application_run (G_APPLICATION (app), argc, argv);
g_object_unref (app);
return status;
}Step 5: Open c_cpp_proprties.json if you don't have one make it!
Step 6: you need this exact promt, make sure that the root directory is correct!!!! And add the following ->
{
"configurations": [
{
"name": "Win32",
"includePath": [
"${workspaceFolder}/**",
"C:/msys64/mingw64/include/gtk-4.0",
"C:/msys64/mingw64/include/glib-2.0",
"C:/msys64/mingw64/include/**",
"C:/msys64/mingw64/lib/**"
],
"defines": [
"_DEBUG",
"UNICODE",
"_UNICODE"
],
"windowsSdkVersion": "10.0.22000.0",
"compilerPath": "C:/msys64/mingw64/bin/gcc.exe",
"cStandard": "c17",
"cppStandard": "c++17",
"intelliSenseMode": "windows-gcc-x64"
}
],
"version": 4
}Step 7: Make sure you add it into "edit environment settings" You got to add it to the System Environment - >
C:/msys64/mingw64/bin <- Add which ever directory it is in, though if you change it remember to do it in Tasks & c_cpp_properties.json
You need to add the bin folder that you downloaded mingw64 to and the gtk4 will be there as well
Make sure that the bin path to the mingw64 is right after Program Files or it might not work!
Step 8: Add task.json
