Hmmm... There is no ActiveText property for me in gtk# 1.9.5 I'm using.
Am I using something wrong here?
I had to create a class with static methods to do what I wanted. I
would subclass, but I could not figure how how to get a subclassed
instance using Combo.NewText.
namespace Mono.Data.SqlSharp.GtkSharp
{
using System;
using GLib;
using Gtk;
public class ComboHelper : ComboBox
{
public static ComboBox NewComboBox ()
{
return ComboBox.NewText ();
}
public static string GetActiveText(ComboBox cbox)
{
if (cbox.Active < 0)
return "";
TreeIter iter;
cbox.GetActiveIter (out iter);
string cvalue = ((ListStore) cbox.Model).GetValue (iter,
0).ToString();
return cvalue;
}
public static bool SetActiveText (ComboBox cbox, string text)
{
// returns true if found, false if not found
string tvalue;
TreeIter iter;
ListStore store = (ListStore) cbox.Model;
store.IterChildren (out iter);
tvalue = store.GetValue (iter, 0).ToString();
if (tvalue.Equals (text)) {
cbox.SetActiveIter (iter);
return true;
}
else {
bool found = store.IterNext (ref iter);
while (found == true) {
tvalue = store.GetValue (iter, 0).ToString();
if (tvalue.Equals (text)) {
cbox.SetActiveIter (iter);
return true;
}
else
found = store.IterNext (ref iter);
}
}
return false; // not found
}
}
}

FWIW, I'm less excited about returning the index from SetActiveText than
I was about the original suggestion for AppendText. Since there is
already an ActiveText {get;} , it would be nicer to add this
functionality as a setter to the prop without the index return.
