I have a GtkTextView in one of my application windows; mainly because a
GtkEntry is only single width and I want text wrapping and so forth.
Anyway, I'm trying to get the text from the GtkTextView but only end up
with 'null' when I try to print it. Here is a code snipped:
void insertCustomer( GtkWidget *customers )
{
GtkTextBuffer *specialBuffer;
GtkTextView *specialView;
GtkTextIter *start;
GtkTextIter *end;
gchar* *specialText;
specialView = lookup_widget(customers, "cust_instructions");
specialBuffer = gtk_text_view_get_buffer(specialView);
gtk_text_buffer_get_bounds(specialBuffer, start, end);
specialText = gtk_text_buffer_get_text(specialBuffer, start, end, FALSE);
g_print("Special Text: %s \n",specialText);
}
I actually want to be able to insert that text into a database field but
it's not working.
Any help is appreciated.
