Re: GTK dialog ESC key problem

[Christopher Anderson <sidewinder asu gmail com>]

The problem is that, as Tim said, hitting cancel emits a
GTK_RESPONSE_DELETE_EVENT, not a GTK_RESPONSE_CANCEL. So with your
code, if the user hits escape, your if statement will go to the "ok"
part. Here's what you should use instead:

switch (response) {
            case GTK_RESPONSE_CANCEL:
            case GTK_RESPONSE_DELETE_EVENT:
            case GTK_RESPONSE_NONE:
                /* Cancel behaviour here */
                break;

            case GTK_RESPONSE_OK:
               /* Ok behaviour here */              
               break;
        }

Cheers,
Chris Anderson
