315) Why is XtWindow(widget) == 0?


[Last modified: Oct 95]

Answer: The window is not created (and is NULL) until the widget is realized.
In general, using XtWindow() is a bad idea.  In most cases, you can create
more robust code by subclassing the widget and putting your window code in new
wiget class methods.
