That's actually what the documentation says here[1], at least in c. But
looking the c code that vala exports, it's passing the wrong function, so I
found workaround here[2].
So for others who may need this "feature", my code now looks something like
this:
bool in_insert;
[GtkCallback]
private void on_birthday_insert_text(Gtk.Editable widget, string
text, int length, ref int position)
{
if (in_insert)
return;
in_insert = true;
widget.insert_text("abc", 3, ref position);
GLib.Signal.stop_emission_by_name((Gtk.Widget *) widget,
"insert_text");
in_insert = false;
}
Thanks for your input.
