Matt,

Using Geany, or some other IDE, where do you include the `pkg-config gtk+-3.0 --cflag` string, to make sure it points to gtk's header definitions?

OK, Matt, I did get this: pi@raspberrypi:~/gtkiostream-1.5.0 $ pkg-config gtk+-3.0 --cflags -pthread -I/usr/include/gtk-3.0 -I/usr/include/at-spi2-atk/2.0 -I/usr/include/at-spi-2.0 -I/usr/include/dbus-1.0 -I/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/dbus-1.0/include -I/usr/include/gtk-3.0 -I/usr/include/gio-unix-...

Matt, No. I just don't get it. pi@raspberrypi:~/gtkiostream-1.5.0 $ g++ test/LabelsTest.C -o test/LabelsTest `pkg-config gtk+-3.0 --cflags --libs` -Iinclude3test/LabelsTest.C:17:26: fatal error: gtkInterface.H: No such file or directory #include "gtkInterface.H" ^ compilation terminated. -Mike

Matt, This is the main problem I've been having. Trying to get C++ to 'find' the gtk header definitions. Or, at least I think that is the issue. After running the compile test my results are: pi@raspberrypi:~/gtkiostream-1.5.0 $ g++ test/LabelsTest.C -o test/LabelsTest `pkg-config gtk+-2.0 --cflags ...

Oh, yeah, flatmax,

Exactly what I was looking for.

Trying to find exactly what I need for programming the Raspberry Pi, is a effort that has exploded in many unforeseen directions. It appears that the learning curve is steep, but, that's the kind of challenge I enjoy.

:D Thank you ghans and flatmax. I can see, that by using this forum, I'm going to receive lots of good help. I did remember after asking what the Raspian GUI was called. Yeah, Pixel. flatmax, Are there certain libraries, include files, headers, you have to use in your C++ code in order to create the...

I love my new Raspberry Pi 3. It has renewed my interest in electronics and programming. I admit, to being rusty in C++. I see from previous post that most recommend the Geany IDE for C++ programming on the Pi. That's fine, but Geany doesn't look much more to me, than a text editor. How does one dis...
