NAME

       gladevcp - displays Virtual control Panels built with GTK / GLADE

SYNOPSIS

       loadusr  gladevcp   [-c  componentname0xN]  [-g  WxH+Xoffset+Yoffset0xN]  [-H  halcmdfile]  [-x windowid]
       gladefile.glade

DESCRIPTION

       GladeVCP parses a glade file and displays the widgets in a window.  Then  calls  gladevcp_makepins  which
       again  parses the gladefile looking for specific HAL widgets then makes HAL pins and sets up updating for
       them.  The HAL component name defaults to the basename of the glade file.  The -x option directs GladeVCP
       to reparent itself under this X window id instead of creating its own toplevel  window.   The  -H  option
       passes  an  input  file for halcmd to be run after the GladeVCP component is initialized. This is used in
       Axis when running GladeVCP under a tab with the EMBED_TAB_NAME/EMBED_TAB_COMMAND INI file feature.

       GladeVCP supports GtkBuilder or libglade files though some widgets are not fully supported in  GtkBuilder
       yet.

ISSUES

       For  now,  system  links  need  to  be added in the glade library folders to point to our new widgets and
       catalog files. Look in lib/python/gladevcp/READ_ME for details.
