Re: get_name returns name of the widget not the instance

[Tadej BorovÅak <tadeboro gmail com>]

Hello.

This happens because GtkBuilder doesn't set "name" property of the
widget to "id" property in glade file anymore (I think GTK+-2.20
introduced this change).

Your code probably needs to be updated from this (it's been a while
since I coded for the last time, so take my advice with a grain of
salt):

$name = $object->get_name ();

to

$name = $object->Gtk2::Buildable::get_name ();


Or, you can set "name" property of the widget to it's "id" in Glade.

Cheers,
Tadej
