RE: gtk_label_set_text in glade made sources

[martyn 2 russell bt com]

Assuming the "label_put_hostname_here" is a GtkWidget*, your mistake is the
"GtkLabel(...)".  If it already is a GtkLabel* you don't need to put the
"GtkLabel(...)" in at all.

You would use (assuming it is defined as a GtkWidget*):
        gtk_label_set_text((GtkLabel*)label_put_hostname_here,
"helloworld");
Or (preferable)
        gtk_label_set_text(GTK_LABEL(label_put_hostname_here),
"helloworld");
Else (if defined as a GtkLabel*)
        gtk_label_set_text(label_put_hostname_here, "helloworld");

I don't know about the VERSION problem, sorry.

Martyn

Subject: gtk_label_set_text in glade made sources


Hello,

I am a newbe GTK/Gnome developer.  I have started
using  Anjuta IDE.  This uses GLADE for it's GUI
designer.  Well I have designed my GUI and generated
my C source code from it.  

What I am doing is not to complicated.  I have done it
hundreds of times in MSVC++.  I need to change a label
that I created earlier using GLADE. 

I tried putting the line between two generated lines. 
In hopes that it would change the label before it
shows the window.  I have looked at the docs on
www.gnome.org and the gtk tutorials but I still don't
see what I need to do.  


window1 = create_window1 ();
 
  gtk_label_set_text(
GtkLabel(label_put_hostname_here), "BigJoe");


  gtk_widget_show (window1);
 

I get the error:
Parse Before GtkLabel.

I get another message before that VERSION is
undeclared.  Do I need to set that?

Thanks

Joe

PS.  If this isn't the spot for this please push me in
the right direction.
