Did you try the strdup() suggestion? Calling g_idle_add only copies the pointer, so normally when people get your "data gets corrupted" symptoms it's because they've passed a pointer to data that goes out of scope. If the address you pass to g_idle_add refers to _static_ data (including allocated heap that won't get free'd until the program terminates) then it should work. _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
