     Creates the GDK (windowing system) resources associated with a
     widget.  For example, 'widget->window' will be created when a
     widget is realized.  Normally realization happens implicitly; if
     you show a widget and all its parent containers, then the widget
     will be realized and mapped automatically.

'object': ['GtkWidget']  a 'GtkWidget'

_D_e_t_a_i_l_s:

     Realizing a widget requires all the widget's parent widgets to be
     realized; calling 'gtkWidgetRealize' realizes the widget's parents
     in addition to 'widget' itself. If a widget is not yet inside a
     toplevel window when you realize it, bad things will happen.

     This function is primarily used in widget implementations, and
     isn't very useful otherwise. Many times when you think you might
     need it, a better approach is to connect to a signal that will be
     called after the widget is realized automatically, such as
     GtkWidget::expose-event. Or simply 'gSignalConnectAfter()' to the
     GtkWidget::realize signal.
