Sujet : On_Button_Press_Event in Text_View De : gavind.mccord (at) *nospam* gmail.com (Gavin McCord) Groupes :comp.lang.ada Date : 13.

Using gtkada (gtk3), is it possible to use a custom handler to deal with a button-press-event (or other events if necessary) inside a widget such as a Text_View?
For example I create a Text_View with buffer. To process a button-press within that view I have this code in my main procedure:
The_View.On_Button_Press_Event (Press_CB'Access); The_View.Set_Events (The_View.Get_Events or Button_Press_Mask);
The callback looks like this:
function Press_CB (Self : access Gtk_Widget_Record'Class; Event : Gdk_Event_Button) return Boolean is begin Put_Line ("Mouse click in text view"); return True; end Press_CB;
So far, so good.
But I'd like to pass additional data to the callback, without using global variables/records if it can be avoided.
I have a custom handler used when I update the Text_Buffer:
That works fine so I was imagining something similar might be possible, but I've run through various permuations of records and access types but not yet got a working callback.
Any help gratefully received (I can post the full code if that's useful).
