Hi.
We recently did some experiments with porting PyGtk code to PyGi and
stumbled over the Drag and Drop handling. In PyGtk nothing more than the
following is required to allow a tree view to handle file drops:
> view = gtk.TreeView()
>
> view.drag_dest_set(
> gtk.DEST_DEFAULT_ALL,
> [('text/uri-list', 0, 0)],
> gtk.gdk.ACTION_COPY | gtk.gdk.ACTION_MOVE
> )
With PyGi the equivalent function seems to be Gtk.drag_dest_set() which
yields the following attempt:
> view = Gtk.TreeView()
> target = Gtk.TargetEntry()
> target.target = 'text/uri-list'
> target.flags = 0
> target.info = 0
>
> Gtk.drag_dest_set(
> view,
> Gtk.DestDefaults.ALL,
> target,
> 1,
> Gdk.DragAction.COPY | Gdk.DragAction.MOVE
> )
However, the assignment of the target to the respective struct member
yields the following error:
> RuntimeError: unable to set value for field
Why does the assignment to "target" fail whereas "flags" and "info" are
fine?
The GTK docs describe the "targets" parameter of Gtk.drag_dest_set() as
follows:
> a pointer to an array of GtkTargetEntrys indicating the drop types that
> this widget will accept, or NULL.
However, there obviously are no pointers in Python. So how would one
specify multiple targets here? Specify None upon Gtk.drag_dest_set() and
separately modify the target list via Gtk.drag_dest_set_target_list()?
This however also fails right at the Gtk.drag_dest_set() call with None
as target and 0 as target count:
> TypeError: argument 2: Must be Gtk.TargetEntry, not NoneType
Simply specifying a list of targets also fails, no matter the content:
> TypeError: argument 2: Must be Gtk.TargetEntry, not list
Should I just file a bug report about Drag and Drop handling in PyGi in
general?
