[Gtk-sharp-list] Multiple Windows and Application.Init problem

[Rafael Teixeira]

Application.Init() and Run() MUST be in a static method, be it the
'main' entry method or called from it.

Also see that Application.Run() is a blocking call, it will run
nearly-forever in the message dequeueing loop and won't come back
until the end of the application is queued with Application.Quit().

Your Login Window can and should be executed in modal fashion, you are
just confusing things...

It should be inherited from Dialog and then you can call it's Run
method (after calling Application.Init(), but without needing to go
into the blocking Application.Run())...

HIH,
