Re: Naming / Labelling Widgets

Isn't this exactly what the "Name: " field in glade is doing? Note
that naming by itself is not enough to get access to the widget by the
 name, but you also need to store a hash_table that maps the name to
the widgets. Since all widgets are GObjects that contain such a hash
table (through g_object_set_data(), g_object_get_data()) you may e.g.
create the hash table in the top widget. Add another pointer from all
widgets to the top widget and you may traverse the whole hierarchy
without adding additional variables. On the other hand if you use
libglade, I think you can get the mapping from name to widget directly
through one of its methods.
