Olivier, Thanks for your interest. Pasted just below is the complete code. What I want to do with that is, as a raw commented snip by line number 106-116 that according to my selection of Book/Article in combobox, some entry will be hidden.
But, for that, I need to get the data from the combo box, which I have tried in line number 53-54. Please help. NB. Olivier, I got your reply in CC as well as a group post. So, I am replying you also(reply to all). Please don't get offended if it was not your intention. /*******THE CODE********/ #include <gtk/gtk.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> #include <gdk/gdk.h> GtkWidget *window; GtkWidget *vbox, *hbox, *combo; GtkWidget *vbox1, *hbox1, *combo1; GtkWidget *entry1; GtkWidget *entryAuth; GtkWidget *entryEditor; GtkWidget *entryTitle; GtkWidget *window; int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { GtkWidget *window; GtkWidget *button; GtkWidget *table; GtkWidget *frame; GtkWidget *notebook; GtkWidget *label; GtkWidget *checkbutton; GtkWidget *widget; int i; char bufferf[32]; char bufferl[32]; // char bibtype; gtk_init(&argc, &argv); window = gtk_window_new(GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL); gtk_window_set_title(GTK_WINDOW(window), "BibMk"); gtk_container_set_border_width(GTK_CONTAINER(window), 20); g_signal_connect(window, "delete-event", G_CALLBACK(gtk_main_quit), NULL); // gtk_window_set_default_size(GTK_WINDOW(window), 200, 150); vbox = gtk_vbox_new(FALSE, 0); hbox = gtk_hbox_new(FALSE, 0); gtk_container_add(GTK_CONTAINER(window), hbox); gtk_box_pack_start(GTK_BOX(hbox), vbox, FALSE, FALSE, 0); frame = gtk_frame_new("Properties"); combo = gtk_combo_box_text_new(); gtk_combo_box_append_text(GTK_COMBO_BOX(combo), "Book"); gtk_combo_box_append_text(GTK_COMBO_BOX(combo), "Article"); gtk_box_pack_start(GTK_BOX(vbox), combo, TRUE, TRUE, 0); gtk_widget_show(combo); gchar *bibtype = gtk_combo_box_get_active_text(GTK_COMBO_BOX(combo)); printf("%s", gtk_combo_box_get_active_text(GTK_COMBO_BOX(combo))); entry1 = gtk_entry_new(); gtk_entry_set_text(GTK_ENTRY(entry1), "bibKey"); gtk_box_pack_start(GTK_BOX(hbox), entry1, TRUE, TRUE, 0); gtk_widget_show(entry1); /* * CREATE THE NOTEBOOK PAN */ table = gtk_table_new(3, 6, FALSE); /* Create a new notebook, place the position of the tabs */ notebook = gtk_notebook_new(); gtk_notebook_set_tab_pos(GTK_NOTEBOOK(notebook), GTK_POS_TOP); gtk_table_attach_defaults(GTK_TABLE(table), notebook, 0, 6, 0, 1); gtk_widget_show(notebook); /* * CREATE BASIC NOTEBOOK */ /* * Authors Tab */ frame = gtk_frame_new("Authors"); gtk_widget_set_usize(frame, 400, 175); vbox1 = gtk_vbox_new(FALSE, 0); hbox1 = gtk_hbox_new(FALSE, 0); gtk_container_add(GTK_CONTAINER(frame), vbox1); entryAuth = gtk_entry_new(); gtk_entry_set_text(GTK_ENTRY(entryAuth), "Author"); gtk_container_add (GTK_CONTAINER (vbox1), entryAuth); gtk_widget_show(entryAuth); entryEditor = gtk_entry_new(); gtk_entry_set_text(GTK_ENTRY(entryEditor), "Editor"); gtk_container_add (GTK_CONTAINER (vbox1), entryEditor); gtk_widget_show(entryEditor); entryTitle = gtk_entry_new(); gtk_entry_set_text(GTK_ENTRY(entryTitle), "Title"); gtk_container_add (GTK_CONTAINER (vbox1), entryTitle); gtk_widget_show(entryTitle); label = gtk_label_new("Authors/Title"); gtk_notebook_append_page(GTK_NOTEBOOK(notebook), frame, label); /* switch (bibtype) { case book: gtk_container_add(GTK_CONTAINER(vbox1), entryAuth); gtk_container_add(GTK_CONTAINER(vbox1), entryEditor); gtk_entry_set_text(GTK_ENTRY(entryTitle), "Title"); break; case article: gtk_container_add(GTK_CONTAINER(vbox1), entryAuth); gtk_entry_set_text(GTK_ENTRY(entryTitle), "Title"); } */ gtk_box_pack_start(GTK_BOX(vbox), table, TRUE, TRUE, 0); gtk_widget_show(table); gtk_widget_show_all(window); gtk_main(); return 0; } /*******CODE END**********/ On Wed, 2012-06-20 at 13:20 +0200, Olivier Sessink wrote: > can you post a larger bit of the code? it is difficult to see what's going on. > > b.t.w. gtk_combo_box_new_text() is deprecated, use gtk_combo_box_text_new() > > Olivier > > 2012/6/20 Rudra Banerjee <bnrj.ru...@yahoo.com>: > > Thanks for your reply jjacky.
