gtkplus_gnome thread: Progress bar and forking


Message #1 by "Steve Getzinger" <steve@w...> on Thu, 1 Mar 2001 02:27:11
I am fairly new to GTK+ as I have "played" with it off and on for about a
year now. What I have a problem with is I have created a splash screen
similiar to GIMP. What I want is to display the splash and then have the
progress bar run while searching the drives for all copies of a file. This
info is then passed to the next dialog in the process of startup (first
time). My problem comes in at the point of running the locate command. I
call the function that creates the splash and then call a func that runs
the locate and handles the data returned. splash does not display until the
locate command is complete. If I place a pause between the two func's the
progress bar freezes while locate is run. Any ideas?

TIA

Steve
