Well, GtkEntry (Gtk+-3.0) accesses any UTF input included escapes in your case is a new line. Sometime the string has a new line at the end that you maybe copied from somewhere, you should catch the new line code (0x0A - 1 byte), and set the index of the new line is '\0'.
unsigned int length; length = strlen (the_string); for (int i = length - 1; i >= 0; i--) if (the_string [i] == 0x0A) the_string [i] = '\0'; On Thu, Apr 5, 2018 at 9:53 PM, arkkimede <arkkim...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi! > In my GTK3 applications, there are some GtkEntry used to input strings > like, e.g., the output directory. > > I write a string in the Entry and using the function gtk_entry_get_text() i > read the string insert in the GUI. > > Printing on screen this string, <<some times>> a "new line" is present at > the end of the string (obviously I do not put a new line at the end). > > How can avoid this issue? > I have to change function or make some operations before the reading? > > Thank You. > Daniele > _______________________________________________ > gtk-app-devel-list mailing list > gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org > https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list > _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
