I'm returning to PyGTK programming after a long hiatus. When last I visited these waters, I used Gtk 2.12. Now I use 2.22 and this Builder thing, which, I must admit, has me a bit confused.
In a signal callback for a radio button, if I ask for its name (rb.get_name()) I always get "GtkRadioButton". If I call get_property with "name" as the argument, I get the empty string. Looking at the docs for gtk.Builder, I saw this: "Objects must be given a name with the "id" attribute, which allows the application to retrieve them from the builder with get_object(). An id is also necessary to use the object as property value in other parts of the UI definition. Note: Prior to GTK+ 2.20, gtk.Builder was setting the "name" property of constructed widgets to the "id" attribute. In GTK+ 2.20 or newer, you have to use gtk.Buildable.get_name() instead of gtk.Widget.get_name() to obtain the "id", or set the "name" property in your UI definition." I can't tell what object gtk.Buildable is supposed to refer to. I have a reference to a widget (in this case, a radio button, but I think the problem is more general than that). How do I retrieve the name I gave it in Glade?
