I'm not sure to have well understood what you wish to say here, but the 
code snippet does exactly what you want:

/* This widget has only a GtkEntry, named entry1,
 * and a GtkButton, named button1
 * when you click on button1 the event
 * on_button1_clicked is fired
 */
void on_button1_clicked (GtkButton * button,
                         gpointer    user_data) {
    GtkWidget     * in,
                  * out;
    G_CONST_RETURN
            gchar * text;

    /* widget pointer *in* is retrieved by a commodity
     * function lookup_widget, which is generated by
     * Glade (yes, I know, I should begin using
     * libglade :-) )
     */
    in = lookup_widget (GTK_WIDGET (button), "entry1");

    /* text-entry content
     */
    text = (gchar *)gtk_entry_get_text (GTK_ENTRY (in));
    /* after this, text contains what you entered, before
     * clicking on button1, in entry1, and then...
     * printout to console
     */
    g_print ("> %s\n", text);
}
