Re: Help with retreiving children?

[Derek Simkowiak <dereks kd-dev com>]

-> I am creating an app using GTK+... I don't like global variables, or
-> exporting large numbers of variables to implement functionality.

	Standard object-oriented design says to write _set_ and _get_
functions for each variable you wish to have publicly r/w.  I.e.,

gint config_page_get_varname(ConfigPage *cfg_page);
void config_page_set_varname(ConfigPage *cfg_page, gint value);

	...assuming varname makes sense as an int.  Of course, just write
_get_ fxns if it's read only.
