FWIW, I wound up subclassing the Combo widget (in Python) and making the
set_popdown_strings method a bit smarter. It checks to see if its list
widget's toplevel window is visible, and if so, connects to that widget's
unmap signal to defer the actual setting:
def deferred_popdown_cb(self, *args):
self.list_parent.disconnect(self.popdown_id)
gtk.Combo.set_popdown_strings(self, self.popdown_strings)
def set_popdown_strings(self, strings):
self.popdown_strings = strings
self.list_parent = self.list.get_toplevel()
if self.list_parent and (self.list_parent.flags() & gtk.MAPPED):
self.popdown_id = self.list_parent.connect("unmap",
self.deferred_popdown_cb)
else:
gtk.Combo.set_popdown_strings(self, self.popdown_strings)
I'm not sure that's the best way to do it, but it worked for me. Perhaps
gtk_combo_set_popdown_strings should do something like this by default.
Alternatively, it would be nice if the GtkCombo documentation warned about
the potential problems of mucking with the list while it's active.
