Hello everybody,

According to the Gtk+ documentation GtkSearchEntry emits a
"search-changed" signal besides the standard "changed" signal.
https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/GtkSearchEntry.html#GtkSearchEntry-search-changed

I could not find a counterpart for this signal in Gtk::SearchEntry. Is
there a special reason why it is not wrapped? Is there a way to use the
C signal in a Gtkmm program?

Best regards,
Ahmet

It has probably just been overlooked. I'm sure it will be included in
some future version of gtkmm.

You can call the glib function g_signal_connect(), e.g. like so:
  void my_signal_handler(GtkSearchEntry* entry, gpointer user_data);
  g_signal_connect(my_search_entry_instance.gobj(), "search-changed",
(GCallback)my_signal_handler, user_data);

Thank you, Kjell. Shall I report a bug about it?

You can report a bug if you like, but I don't think it's necessary. I would have fixed it in the git repository right away, if it weren't for the fact that any added API now will require first creating a gtkmm-3-14 branch. That's easily done, but it's better to wait some time after the release of gtkmm 3.14.0, until we have more stuff that shall not go into a 3.14.x release.
