Re: gtk_combo

["Rafeeq C E " <rafeeqce myiris com>]

Hi,
i declared a string variable(const gchar
value[70]) and copied value read from mysql to
variable and added the string variable to list
using g_list_append (items, value);. It is
working. But the combo box contains only the
last value repeated as many as the number of
records fetched. Is it because of that GList
keeps lvalue of the added string.  Can you
please suggest a work around for this problem. 

Why can't we add some other functions to add
strings to the combo box like in the case of
option menus in gtk2.0 at least.

Regards
