In your definition of button 1, you have two arguments to your function
shoContent:
I assume that nameFile is a global somewhere defined as char*.
What is the second parameter f?
Assuming a global variable nameFile and a global say integer f
char * nameFile = "myfile.root";
int f = 10;
Interactively, you can do;
shoContent(nameFile,f);
and you can have a similar statement in the action of your button.
Note that you should have
shoContent(nameFile,f)
and not
shoContent(*nameFile,f)
Looking at your definition of this controlbar, I have the impression
that you are trying to do the same as the standard ROOT browser.
If you want to browse through a ROOT file containing any kind
of objects: histograms, Trees, tracks,etc, you do
TFile f("myfile.root")
TBrowser b
Then you can click on the item "ROOT files". You can go up and down
in your directory tree, clicking on histogram icons to display
the histogram, or use the right mouse button to get a context menu.
