[Gambas-user] GTK+ 3, the library that is a full mess at each new minor release

Hi,

<rant>

I have just noticed that GTK+ 3 has changed its internal drawing model 
(for the n-th time) since 3.20 (I think).

And, as usual, this new drawing model is not API backward-compatible, 
and so now the Gambas Style drawing methods do not work anymore in Gambas.

At the moment, I have no idea how to draw the widgets components with 
the new GTK+3, and if it is possible outside of the library.

Really, I would not like to be in the brain of a GTK+ library 
developer... Someone should explain them what a "minor release" really 
is some day...
