SearchEntry does not appear to implement Editable interface correctly
Closed this issue · 3 comments
searchBar := gtk.NewSearchBar()
searchBar.SetVAlign(gtk.AlignStart)
searchBar.SetKeyCaptureWidget(window)
box.Append(searchBar)
searchEntry := gtk.NewSearchEntry()
searchEntry.SetHExpand(true)
searchBar.ConnectEntry(searchEntry)
box.Append(searchEntry)
On building I get the following error:
./main.go:41:25: cannot use searchEntry (variable of type *gtk.SearchEntry) as gtk.Editabler value in argument to searchBar.ConnectEntry: *gtk.SearchEntry does not implement gtk.Editabler (*gtk.SearchEntry.Editable is a field, not a method)
SearchEntry
has an Editable
field struct which has an Editable
function, but that Editable
function should exist on SearchEntry
instead.
This looks like a name collision issue, Editable
struct vs Editable
function attached to Editable
struct.
I'd love to have a go at fixing this myself but so far have been unable to figure out where to override this. I believe the fix should be to rename the Editable
field on SearchEntry
to something else.
Is there an example in the generation code where this kind of thing has been done before?

Yes! gendata.go specifically contains a lot of the code to manually fix quirky errors like these.
Ideally, I would love to have the generator itself figure out rather than manually going through functions over time, but overriding it manually is probably the easiest way to do it.

Thanks for the tip @diamondburned, will give this a shot this evening.
