gtk3 can not be compiled with vte

Question

I'm trying to integrate a terminal on my Gtk3 app but when i compile the app, i got that error.

(csimpleide:9858): Gtk-ERROR **: GTK+ 2.x symbols detected. Using GTK+ 2.x and GTK+ 3 in  the same process is not supported
Trace/breakpoint trap (core dumped)

because the vte lib use gtk2.

i use this command to compile.

gcc -o test test.c `pkg-config --cflags --libs gtk+-3.0 vte`

how i can resolve this ??

Answer 1

You should define a gtk3 based VTE library version, on my Ubuntu 14.04 PC, the appropriate vte version is 2.90, so the compilation command would be:

gcc -o test test.c `pkg-config --cflags --libs gtk+-3.0 vte-2.90`
