Hello Russell,
I had to do something similar recently. I used glade to build the
interface, but then had to go back and remove the GtkComboBoxEntry
widgest and replace them with GtkCombobox widgets.
Here's the code with a note:
Note #1: localization_sites is a global. The value is populated by the
user via a configuration file. (gchar **localization_sites;)
void build_wfo_list (GtkWidget *combobox)
{
gint i=0;
gint count=0;
/* FILL IN THE DROP DOWN LIST */
count = g_strv_length(localization_sites);
for (i=0; i<count; i++) {
gtk_combo_box_append_text(GTK_COMBO_BOX(combobox),
localization_sites[i]);
}
/* SET A DEFAULT SELECTION */
gtk_combo_box_set_active(GTK_COMBO_BOX(combobox), 0);
}
