[Glade-devel] Passing user data to signal handler

[Joe Scaduto]

David,

If signal_connect_object is called then is the following function
definition correct?

g_signal_connect_object (gpointer instance,
                         const gchar *detailed_signal,
                         GCallback c_handler,
                         gpointer gobject,
                         GConnectFlags connect_flags);

It was my understanding that the 'instance' was the 'glade name' used in
to reference to the specific widget in my Glade application and gobject 
was any data I wished to pass to the handler. So if I populate the 'Object' 
field this would not reference to the 'glade name' but to a string representation
of an object?
