RE: problem with entry box changed event

[Tommy Zovich <tommy zovich morganstanley com>]

Hi Vladimir,

Thanks for the response.
I don't have text in ComboBoxDialog entry within Glade.  

I tried the below.  The $data is empty each time.

Actually, what I just tried is commenting out the line as you suggested and
did a stack backtrace in the debugger.  When commenting out the line, the
on_ComboBoxDialog_changed gets called once from Gtk->main when I actually do
a change within the Dialog box.

When I uncomment out the line, the on_ComboBoxDialog_changed gets executed
twice.  The first time it is referenced from 
$dialogForm->{'physRouteEntry'}->set_text( $Selection )  within routine
on_X_clicked and the second time it is referenced from the same exact line
of $dialogForm->{'physRouteEntry'}->set_text( $Selection )  
In both calls, the $Selection is the same value.  

Seems strange but it looks as if a set_text may copy the $Selection value
into the combo box twice, hence executing the changed callback twice.

Tommy

Hi Tommy

Do you have text in Glade in your ComboBoxDialog entry, when you construct
it. 
Try to comment out $dialogForm->{'physRouteEntry'}->set_text( $Selection );
and look on the $data in on_ComboBoxDialog_changed subroutine. Possible it
changed by another call, you can look in ProjectUI.pm.

May be it help.
