<div dir="ltr">Thanks for reply. I am basically wanting to make a re-usable widget (at least a textview) which can write my local language Urdu without system support. I am impressed by the similar work in winforms(c#) with textbox control(equivalent to gtk textview). There the keypress controling method is <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.control.wndproc.aspx" target="_blank">Control.WndProc</a> which can be overridden in custom control to filter messages. Similar thing I could find is to write a keypress event handler in gtk. I am wondering if a custom widget laying in a dll can have such event handler without the need to write an event handler for every new instance. Thats why I asked. <br>
Sorry for the long answer, I tried to explain. You can refer me to some documentation of gtk or sone hint how can I do this. I use google frequently. Hopefully I'll be able to get helpful links on your hint.<br>Best Regards<div class="Ih2E3d">

You might want to look up object oriented design, or preferably find a<br>
class you can take in your area. What you're asking relates to<br>
encapsulation and isn't something that can be answered quickly in one<br>
or two sentences.<br>
