 I don't want that to happen, since the data in it has to be compared.

The sorting of GtkTreeView actually sorts the model, it does so
using the GtkTreeSortable interface.

If you dont want the data model to actually be modified by sorting,
then you can use a GtkTreeModelSort, which is an intermediate
data model for this particular purpose (just set the GtkTreeModelSort
as the model for the GtkTreeView, and set your data model as the
child model of the GtkTreeModelSort).

 How can I do this? Thanks!!

I'm not sure what's the GTK equivalent, but in gtkmm (the C++ binding)
it's possible to give a TreeView separate sorting which doesn't affect
the data, and have multiple Views to sort the same TreeStore using
different columns.

I assume it's possible for ListStore too. The GTK API ref / tutorial
probably mentions that where it explains sorting.

I hope that helps, a bit of digging there will probably get you what
you're looking for...

There's some mention of gtk_tree_sortable_set_sort_column ( ) in 
GtkTreeViewColumn documentation, but there's no mention of it anywhere 
else. While compiling, this function is not found.

Re: Prevent sort of GtkListStore.

2013-06-12 Thread אנטולי קרסנר
I'll tell you what I do when I encounter this kind of problem. This is a
general purpose technique for finding answers for things not well
documented.

If you made a web-search and there's no helpful tutorial and nothing on
the mailing list archives, here's what you can do

The gtkmm book provides a short explanation. In most cases it's quite
easy to find the GTK functions corresponding to gtkmm ones. Here's the
gtkmm book page about TreeView Sorting:

https://developer.gnome.org/gtkmm-tutorial/unstable/sec-treeview-sort.html.en

If it doesn't help - maybe function name differ from GTK ones - go to
the gtkmm source code and find the implementation. But most of gtkmm is
auto-generated, so you need to see the source after gmmproc is applied.
You can do it manually or simply download the gtkmm source with gmmproc
applied, directly from here:

http://fossies.org/linux/privat/gtkmm-3.8.1.tar.gz/

Then go to the definition of the gtkmm methods you need, and see which
treeview GTK method is used. Then just go to its API documentation.

Very often digging like that is the only way.
