I am having a problem passing data into the g_idle_add() function. The exact
line of code i am using is as follows:
g_idle_add(update_server_version,(gpointer)data.data);
data is a structure, and data.data is a string of characters (char *). The
data that I am passing into the g_idle_add() function is correct, however
once the update_server_version() callback is called the data that is passed
in is corrupted. Is there something wrong with what I am doing here? How
would I pass a string of characters into my update_server_version() callback
function?
Thank you for any help you can provide, the code below is my
update_server_version() callback.
Sincerely
Melvin Newman
gboolean update_server_version(GtkButton *button, gpointer data)
{
/* Variables
******************************************/
GtkWidget *server_version;
gchar *string_buffer;
/*****************************************/
string_buffer = g_strdup_printf("V%s", (char *)data);
server_version=glade_xml_get_widget(xml,"label2");
gtk_label_set_text(server_version,string_buffer);
g_idle_remove_by_data(data);
}
