Hello Friends, >Quoting Tom Froysland <Tom.Froysland@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: Hex numbers How is it possible to make a (text) box to get or show a hexadesimal number? -- The way I do it is to use sscanf & sprintf and get/set the hexadecimal numbers that we get respectively. //getting an hexdecimal from the gtk_entry. const gchar *data; int hex_value; data=gtk_entry_get_text(GTK_ENTRY(text_box)); sscanf(data,"%X",&hex_value); //Ive not done the error checking part. //setting an hexdecimal to the gtk_entry. gchar data=(gchar *)g_malloc(sizeof(gchar)*MAX_SIZE); int hex_value; sprintf(data,"%X",&hex_value); //Assume hex_value has been set somehow. gtk_entry_set_text(GTK_ENTRY(text_box),data); $0.02 Cheers Muthu. ------------------------------------------------- This mail sent through IMP(http://www.nitt.edu) _______________________________________________ gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
