As gtkmm is the official C++ wrapper for gtk, I assumed that this would be equivalent to gtk_combo_box_entry_get_active_text. However, this is not the case.
It appears that gtk_combo_box_entry_get_active_text gets the contents of the entry widget. However, Gtk::ComboBoxEntryText::get_active_text returns the last selected row of the drop-down list (which is not the same thing at all if the user has not selected a row or has edited the value). Is this intentional? If so it is very confusing. Similarly named functions should surely behave identically. gtkmm can't really be described as a gtk wrapper if it re-implements methods with different semantics...
