Hi folks, I'm back working on the meta-data browser. Current problem I suppose is to overcome my lack of C knowledge towards inheritance. I've implemented a GtkEntry widget which is tied to the XMPModel. This means, a user can change the meta-data "title" on the description tab and in the advanced tab (showing a tree of currently set meta-data values) and both widgets stay in sync with the value entered. I would like to do something similar for the text views. Take the description as an example. Martin gave me a hint towards inheritance, which I'm currently trying to solve. My understanding so far, if I would inherit from my GtkEntry widget, I wouldn't be able to "overwrite" my implementation so I can display a GtkTextView. I also thought about inheriting from a more basic widget and somehow use a GtkEntry or GtkTextView as a property. That didn't really worked well either. Now I have a similar implementation working with a GtkTextView as a base class including "borrowed" code from my GtkEntry. I would like to "merge" both to something more flexible, but I can't really think of a better architecture. Maybe the clue is to overwrite the constructor which returns either a GtkEntry, a GtkTextView or ...? Any help, pointers, new ideas would be appreciated :) Cheers, -- Roman Joost www: http://www.romanofski.de email: romanofski@xxxxxxxx
