*** function to get string***
void get_the_text (GtkWidget *widget, GtkWidget *entry)
{
  gchar *entry_text;
  entry_text = gtk_entry_get_text(GTK_ENTRY(entry));
  printf("Entry contents: %s\n", entry_text);
 return entry_text;
}


****main****
char *v;
entry1 = gtk_entry_new_with_max_length (50);
button = gtk_button_new_with_label ("gettext");
v= gtk_signal_connect_object (GTK_OBJECT (button), "clicked",
                               GTK_SIGNAL_FUNC(get_the_text ),
                               GTK_OBJECT (entry1));
****i tried also***
v= gtk_signal_connect_object (GTK_OBJECT (button), "clicked",
                               GTK_SIGNAL_FUNC(get_the_text ),
