I hope this is the correct forum for this question... For example, the object is created: g_object_new(FOO_TYPE, "name", "Steve", NULL); In the instance_init function for type Foo I would like to use this property. But it appears that the set_property function is called after instance_init. Is this correct? If so, how can I use properties when constructing the object? Thanks. -- Steve Feehan _______________________________________________ gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
