Re: [pygtk] Equivalent of "GConf.client set_list" in GTK+ ?

[Ajay Garg <ajaygargnsit gmail com>]

I tried mixing the two bindings; they don't succeed.

I just wonder why the bug of csuch criticality is not being acted upon, https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=681433

Thanks for the info Simon.

Would mixing up static ("old-way") and dynamic ("new-way") bindings be ok (I only intend to use the "old-way" bindings to get the "set_list" thing working).

It looks like the set_list method is not being included with the
introspection bindings for gconf. Both in regards to
GConf.Client.set_list and GConf.Value.set_list and therefor it does
not look like you can work around it by constructing a Value list
manually and using that with "Client.set". I found this bug in
bugzilla: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=681433
