libglade's glade_xml_signal_autoconnect() function assumes that the signal
data field is just a string, so it won't understand (int)45.
You could either use atoi() to convert to an integer, or you can set the
value based on the widget which received the signal, e.g.
button1 = lookup_widget (widget, "button1");
button2 = lookup_widget (widget, "button2");
button3 = lookup_widget (widget, "button3");
if (widget == button1)
value = 45;
else if (widget == button2)
value = 50;
else if (widget == button3)
value = 55;
