gtk_selection_data_get_uris returns garbage

["jim Pharis" <binbrain gmail com>]

I posted the below to the gtk-devel-list and now that I think about it
it was probably the wrong list to post this question. So I apoligize
for the cross-posting, but hopefully someone on this list can help me
out here.

---

I've got drag and drop working for a single item from Nautilus. I need
to support the case where a user drags multiple items though. I found
some good examples on this list, but I've never been able to get the
gtk_selection_data_get_uri to return anything but garbage.

   gchar **uri_list;
   gchar *path;
   gint len;

   len = 0;

           /* grab nautilus image */
           case TARGET_URI:
               uri_list = gtk_selection_data_get_uris (sel_data);
               while (uri_list[len]) {
                   path = g_filename_from_uri (uri_list[len], NULL, NULL));
                   print path
                   len++;
              }
If I try to print the pointer uri_list after the assignment I get nil.
In gdb I get a partial address like 0xcf3 that appears corrupted.

if I just do g_filename_from_uri (sel_data->data... I get a single
filename correctly.

TIA,
