Closest thing is the protected GLib.Object.SetProperty method. Gtk# intentionally hides as much of GLib.Object as possible, exposing its functionality in C# syntax (eg window.Visible = true;) > I would like this functionality because I am working on a Gtk binding > to Mercury, which I would like to have working with both Gtk# and > Gtk+, and it would simplify the work if I can specify things once as > calling object_set in Mercury, rather than once in C# and once in C. Not sure I follow.

The Gtk# paradigm for the user_data parameter is to create your delegate from an instance method on a class and hold the data member in an instance field. -- Mike Kestner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Gtk-sharp-list maillist - [email protected] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/gtk-sharp-list
