Re: G-Golf - Help with ListView needed

You are right, I'm linking against gtk-4 shipped by the distribution
I'm using. In this case, I'm on Ubuntu 22.04 which, at the time of
writing this email, ships gtk-4 version 4.6.6.

This leads me to a few follow-up questions:

1) I did build G-Golf using automake which should figure out all
versions of the libraries I'm linking against. Should an error have
been raised when I called the incompatible constructor? Or maybe a
print in the console log?

2) Assuming I want to write shippable code, is it possible to know
which gtk-4 version is being used and which constructor to call?

3) Is gtk-string-list unique in this regard, or are there also other
classes which need to be instantiated using the non-idiomatic way?

Thanks a lot for all the help!

BR,
Michele
