A small example (note that this will only work with Gtk# 2.12):
System.Data.DataTable table = new System.Data.DataTable ();
table.Columns.Add ("ID", typeof (int)).Unique = true;
table.Columns.Add ("Name", typeof (string));
table.Rows.Add (0, "Winston Churchill");
table.Rows.Add (1, "Angela Merkel");
// Create a new DataView and sort the data somehow
System.Data.DataView view = new System.Data.DataView (table, "ID > '0'",
"ID ASC", System.Data.DataViewRowState.CurrentRows);
DataViewStore store = new DataViewStore (view);
Gtk.TreeView TestView = new Gtk.TreeView (store.Adapter);
// SHowing only name and not ID, showing the ID will a little more
difficult / cannot be done via attribute mappings; you will have to use
a CellDataFunc for this purpose
TestView.Columns.Add ("Name", new Gtk.CellrendererText (), "text", 1);
Haven't tested this myself, but I hope it will help you...
