Learning Glade along with PyGTK

Question

I've got my self sort of familiar with pygtk. I find it to be a lot of work to build GUI from code. So I turned to Glade. I'm trying to follow tutorials for Glade and PyGTK, and how they work together, however, I can't seems to find any tutorial for the GTKBuilder format.

I found a couple tutorials, like http://www.wmlug.org/pdf/Intro%20to%20PyGTK.pdf , http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/6586?page=0,2 These helped me get into Glade, but I'm unsure how to proceed from there as libglade is deprecated.

Answer 1

libglade has been replaced by GTK Builder which is basically a slight modification of libglade's API that's part of GTK+ proper.

Here are some links which should help you with that:

• GTK+ and Glade3 GUI Programming Tutorial - Part 1
• Libglade to GtkBuilder FAQ
• learnpygtk.org - libglade vs gtkbuilder
• PyGTK Class Reference - gtk.Builder
• StackOverflow - What are the steps to convert from using libglade to GtkBuilder? (Python)
