How would I go about getting text entry from Glade in GTK?

Question

I am working on trying to get Text input from my text entry fields to an array. I have 8 text entry fields and have been following many of the tutorials. So far from what I gathered . I have

void on_Save_and_Process_button_clicked(GTKButton *button, GtkEntry *text){

GTKWidget *entry1 = lookup_widget(text,"entry1");

Const g char *entry_text1 = gtk_entry _get_text(GTK_ENTRY(entry1));

}

I am getting an warning in:

GTKWidget *entry1 = lookup_widget(text,"entry1");

That says:

warning: intialization make pointer from integer without a cast

This my first GTK project. Any help,guidance, links to tutorials of similar projects would be much appreciated.

Answer 1

The function lookup_widget was part of Glade 2, a long time ago. Back then, Glade would generate C code, instead of an XML file, and that function was included in the generated code.

You can't even run Glade 2 anymore most likely, so the tutorial you are using is not going to help you very much. Use a more modern tutorial, such as the one included in the official GTK 3.x documentation.
