signal connection problem

[Marco Quezada <mquezada nlxcorp com>]

Hi, I have the following function which reads parameters from a config
file and builds a simple menu with items. Each item has a signal and a
command associated with it. The config file where these parameters are
read from looks like this:

go_main         go_main         activate
go_maind        go_maind        activate
xpc.mac         xpc.mac          activate
cpm.mac         cpm.mac          activate
Razor             versions           activate
END_SECTION

where the first column is the label on the menu, the second is ht
ecommand to execute and the third is the signal passed associated with
the menu item.

The section of the code that draws this menus is the following:


gchar    label[100], command[100], signal[100];

while(strcmp(TEMP_STRING, "END_SECTION\n") != 0)
  {
     NEXT_LINE_AVAILABLE(config_file, TEMP_STRING);
     if(strcmp(TEMP_STRING, "END_SECTION\n") != 0)
     {
        sscanf(TEMP_STRING, "%s %s %s", label, command, signal);
        CHECK_FOR_SPACES_IN_STRING(label);
        CHECK_FOR_SPACES_IN_STRING(command);
        CHECK_FOR_SPACES_IN_STRING(signal);

        run_stuff_menu_items = gtk_menu_item_new_with_label (label);
        gtk_widget_ref (run_stuff_menu_items);
        gtk_object_set_data_full (GTK_OBJECT (control_window), label,
                                  run_stuff_menu_items,
                                 (GtkDestroyNotify) gtk_widget_unref);
        gtk_widget_show (run_stuff_menu_items);
        gtk_container_add (GTK_CONTAINER (run_stuff_menu),
run_stuff_menu_items);

        gtk_signal_connect (GTK_OBJECT (run_stuff_menu_items), signal,
                            GTK_SIGNAL_FUNC (on_cpmon_activate),
                           (gpointer) command);
     }
  }

My problem is that although the menus get built correctly, the data
passed by the signal connect function (command) is always the last
command on the list, i.e. versions. So if I click on say xpm.mac the
callback gets the following data passed to it:

void
on_cpmon_activate                      (GtkMenuItem     *menuitem,

gpointer        *user_data)
{
   char temp_string[50];

   sprintf(temp_string, "%s &", (char *)user_data);

   system(temp_string);
}

And user_data is always the string "versions".

Any ideas on what's going on?

Thanks.
