Re: Combo box event question

[Mihai Bazon <mbazon websci ro>]

Nice approach, indeed :)

But generally I wouldn't be interested in what's the text from the combo,
I needed more to know the index of the selected item from the list.  For
this, I found no other solution than to attach to each item a value, with
gtk_object_set_data... and use the list object to catch the signals, not
the entry.
