PHP-GTK: Something Old, Something New

The general steps involved in working with a widget are:

• Instantiate the widget object of the appropriate class


<?php $ok =& new GtkButton('OK'); ?>

• Connect the signals to callbacks


<?php $ok->connect('clicked', 'on_ok_clicked'); ?>

• Set any additional attributes via properties or function calls


<?php $ok->set_border_width(3); ?>

• Put the widget into a pre-existing container


<?php $top_window->add($ok); ?>

• Display the widget


<?php $ok->show(); ?>
