problem finding the position of a button in the gtk dialog ( sample code inside )

["chirag juneja" <chiragjuneja@xxxxxxxxx>]

I am trying to find the position of a button in a gtk dialog.
but getting some strange results..

approach i am using is :
i will find the distance of the button from its parent, and then its parent's distance form its parent .. and so on, till i get toplevel window.
then i am adding the decoration's height, border's width and distance of top level window from origin of root window(0,0).

i am getting same (x,y) pair for the each level of iteration :(.

sample code i wrote is attached with this mail...

It will be great if someone can point out the mistake or can tell the correct code for this.

code is :

/*                                                                                                                                                                                                      
  call as :gcc `pkg-config --cflags --libs gtk+-2.0` codename.c                                                                                                                                         
  ./a.out                                                                                                                                                                                               
  then press "button1" in the dialog.
