My problem is the handling of multibyte characters. I need to be able to somehow convert an integer offset in the GtkTextBuffer into a index (somthing a. la. gtk_text_buffer_get_iter_from_index). But I cannot find such a function?this is my function: glong utf8_byteoffset_to_charsoffset(gchar *string, glong byteoffset) { return g_utf8_pointer_to_offset(string, &string[byteoffset]); }
hmm today I was profiling my syntax highlighting, and I found that 90% of
the CPU time was spent on this function, is there a faster way of doing
this??
my syntax highlighting is based on regular expressions, so it returns
offsets in bytes, but to set a tag in the widget I currently use
gtk_text_buffer_get_iter_at_offset(doc->buffer, &itstart, istart);
which uses character offsets, and not byte-offsets.

Olivier
