how to create a window in gimp plugin?

[gbstack]

Hello,everybody!

I want to create a window in gimp plugin,so this is my code(part of the
plugin):

/static void run (const gchar      *name,
     gint              nparams,
     const GimpParam  *param,
     gint             *nreturn_vals,
     GimpParam       **return_vals)
{
  static GimpParam  values[1];
  GimpPDBStatusType status = GIMP_PDB_SUCCESS;
  GimpRunMode       run_mode;
  GtkWidget   *window;

  gtk_init();

  /* Setting mandatory output values */
  *nreturn_vals = 1;
  *return_vals  = values;

  values[0].type = GIMP_PDB_STATUS;
  values[0].data.d_status = status;

  /* Getting run_mode - we won't display a dialog if
   * we are in NONINTERACTIVE mode */
  run_mode = param[0].data.d_int32;
 
  window = gtk_window_new(GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL);
  gtk_window_set_title(GTK_WINDOW(window),"hello");
  gtk_widget_show(window);

  gtk_main();
 
}

/but when I ran the plugin in gimp,it didn't work...
and this is the error message:

I'm not sure if this helps, but when I've created gimp plugins, I've
always used gimp_dialog_new () instead of gtk_window_new ().

For an example, take a look at the scale_dialog () method here:

One way that always works is looking at how other plug-ins does it, for
example:
http://git.gnome.org/cgit/gimp/tree/plug-ins/common/decompose.c

Look in/around decompose_dialog()

Please have a look at
http://developer.gimp.org/writing-a-plug-in/1/index.html

In particular part III of this tutorial should be helpful.

Hi,
thanks for your tutorials,plugin examples and suggestions.

now it's fixed,if I use gimp_ui_init instead of gtk_init,I can create a
GtkWindow in gimp plugin now.

thank you all! :-)
