Re: CTree node refs - creation vs selection

[Pedro Caria <pmiguel maquina com>]

I had a similar problem wich was answered in this reply
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-perl-list/2001-November/msg00077.html

basically you have to store something inside the ctree data to be able
to differ the two similar nodes.
quoting Paulo Molaro

"You can use:
        $ctree->node_set_row_data ($node, $data);
        $ctree->node_get_row_data ($node);
(where $data is a reference).
Or store some (textual) info in an hidden column."
