gtkoptionmenu, how to get the selected menuitem's label?

[Raul Dias <chaos swi com br>]

Hi,

Iam trying to find out what is the selected menuitem's label from a 
OptionMenu.

Note that i am not using the 'activate' signal for each menuitem.

I want to find out the selected menuitem, just after the user clicks
into another button.

Is there a way to find this out (the label from menuitem active)?

Or I have to use the 'active' signal for each menuitem?



Thanks,

Raul Dias
