I have a beef with the custom widget creation function. Why must it only
take constant strings and integer values as arguments? I find this extremely
inconvient. I have a widget and I need to pass it a dynamic string (as in a
a string in a variable or a #define) and glade won't let me do this. (It keeps
putting the variable in quotes). Also, I need to be able to pass it a pointer
to a text entry widget it needs for callback info, but glade only allows
constant integers..
Why strings and ints at all? Wouldn't things be much more extensible if you
just kept up the GTK+ tradition of a gpointer *user_data argument (or even 4
gpointers)?
To give you an idea of how inconvient this is to me, right now I'm creating
two realize signal handlers for one of the windows. One takes the widget I
need as an argument and assigns it to a global variable to be used by my
custom widget, and the other does the same with the dynamic string... Pretty
annoying :)
