Re: copy a GtkTreeView

["Mark Kegel" <mark kegel gmail com>]

As an addendum, why shouldn't I just be able to use g_value_copy?
Everything I'm dealing with is an object and should react like one. So
at least in theory I should be able to copy objects very easily and
the ref counts (and whatever else) just gets updated accordingly. And
once I have the "copied" object I should just be able to use it.

PS Many apologies for spamming the list with the second message. I
thought that GMail had somehow eaten my message.
