Hi

I am trying to compile & run gtk+ code/apps on my Vista computer with ho
success so far.

 

I have compiled a gtk+ c code simple helloworld app(exe) but it won't
run-here is the error:

 

Dad AT Dad-PC
/cygdrive/c/RPD_Programming/RPD_Gtk+Gimp_toolkit/Gtk+_www.gtk.org_tut

orial/Gtk+_tutorial_www.gtk.org/base_gtk

$ ./base

 

Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:

 

Neither does the gtk-demo run & trying to run this I get such errors

Dad AT Dad-PC ~

$ gtk-demo

 

(gtk-demo:6380): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:

 

Or

 

Dad AT Dad-PC /cygdrive/c/Program Files/gtkmm/gtkmm-demo

$ gtk-demo

 

(gtk-demo:1052): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:

 

Dad AT Dad-PC /cygdrive/c/Program Files/gtkmm/gtkmm-demo

$ gtk-demo.exe

 

(gtk-demo:6596): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:

 

I am pretty sure I have all cygwin gtk+ packages installed via cygwin set-up


And on my Vista machine I have gtkmm for Windows setup from which I can run

Gtk-demo from my Vista cmd prompt (but cannot compile gtk+ code with from
Vista cmd 

prompt as I get 'access denied' error message?!). I have cygwin/bin in my
path & gtkmm/bin also.

 

I am grateful if anyone can help me solve this so I can compile & run gtk+
in cygwin.

I look forward to helpful replies, thanks
