if i'm right, what is the normal way to incorpore the data of the image
in our source code ?

i made that :
http://tDeContes.hd.free.fr/miseADisposition/contributions/
mes%20programmes%20ada/outils/compil/figerstreams.adb

will it be easy to use gdk_pixbuf_new_from_data with such a "constant
Stream_Element_Array" ?



ps : for now this app is commented only in french,
does someone want to have it in english too ?









If I understand the french/ada correctly this code takes a file/stream and 
turns it into "code" in the form of
a stream element array. This is useful at times but not for the gdk_pixbuf 
feature. The problem is that this inline data is not
a standard jpeg or png (or any real file format) but rather it a custom 
representation of the image that is specific to Gdk.

If one had a file that was raw binary bytes of the form of a inline gdk data 
then something like this (again assuming I am
understanding it) might be useful.
