Description

Together with GtkSocket, GtkPlug provides the ability to embed widgets from one process into another process in a fashion that is transparent to the user. One process creates a GtkSocket widget and, passes the XID of that widgets window to the other process, which then creates a GtkPlug window with that XID. Any widgets contained in the GtkPlug then will appear inside the first applications window.

gtk_plug_construct ()

void        gtk_plug_construct              (GtkPlug *plug,
                                             guint32 socket_id);

Finish the creation of a GtkPlug widget. This function will generally only be used by classes deriving from GtkPlug.

`plug` :	a GtkPlug widget.
`socket_id` :	the XID of the socket's window.

gtk_plug_new ()

GtkWidget*  gtk_plug_new                    (guint32 socket_id);

Create a new plug widget inside the GtkSocket identified by socket_id.

`socket_id` :	the XID of the socket's window.
Returns :	the new GtkPlug widget.
