Re: Oddities w/a clist

[Steven Rostedt <steven rostedt lmco com>]

I got it to work by quickly adding:

  titles[0] = "";
  titles[1] = "";
  titles[2] = "";
  gtk_clist_append(GTK_CLIST(ilist),titles);

just before
  gtk_clist_set_text(GTK_CLIST(ilist), 0, 0, "TESTING!");

which goes to prove Vladimir's point. Of course for real
production, I would not use the titles variable.

Cheers,

Steven Rostedt
