[Gtk-sharp-list] GTK 3 OpenGL widget under Windows

[Jarl Gullberg]

I managed to solve it myself.

The new gdk_win32_window_get_handle function was indeed what I needed to
use, but I had misunderstood how it should have been imported and called.
The following is the short and sweet code which works:

>    return Utilities.CreateWindowsWindowInfo(windowHandle);

> [SuppressUnmanagedCodeSecurity, DllImport("libgdk-3-0.dll",
> CallingConvention = CallingConvention.Cdecl)]
> public static extern IntPtr gdk_win32_window_get_handle(IntPtr w);
