I suspect that you are doing this: void somemethod() { Gtk::Window mywindow mywindow.show(); } //mywindow is now deleted because it is out of scope rather than this: void somemethod() { m_mywindow = new Gtk::Window(); mywindow->show(); } But if you show some simple code then people can tell you what you are doing wrong. This is rather simple stuff. -- Murray Cumming murr...@murrayc.com www.murrayc.com www.openismus.com _______________________________________________ gtkmm-list mailing list gtkmm-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtkmm-list
