I imported gtkc.cairoLibtypes. This stoped the compiler from saying that cairo_text_extents_t is undefined, but the structure is missing data members. When I tried to dereference cairo_text_extents_t.width the compiler says that width is not a recognized data member. I get the same error when I try to dereference Xadvance. I'm really running out of ideas here. Any help would be appreciated.
