gtk_entry_get_text() - having problems with return type

["Ben LeMasurier" <uidzer0 hotmail com>]

Hey everyone,

i am trying to take the contents of of text entry and push them into 
gethostbyname(), when I do this I get the error:

warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast

gethostbyname() requests a char *
and gtk_entry_get_text() returns G_CONST_RETURN gchar*

How do I cast this? or do whatever it is so it takes the variable?

Thanks,

Ben LeMasurier
