[Gtk-sharp-list] Howto use Treeview Cell Data Function

[Jonathan Pryor]

You could take a look at Type Reflector (Mono CVS module:
type-reflector) for some TreeCellDataFunc use.

You'll want to see displayers/gtk/GtkTypeDisplayer.cs, in the
OnRenderCellText and OnRenderCellIcon methods.

A sample implementation would be:

	private void MyCellDataFunc_Column1 (
		Gtk.TreeViewColumn tree_column,
		Gtk.CellRenderer cell,
		Gtk.TreeModel tree_model,
		Gtk.TreeIter iter)
	{
		complexObject co = (complexObject) 
			tree_model.GetValue (iter, 0);
		((CellRendererText) cell).Text = co.firstString;
	}

You would need to use a different function for each column you wanted
rendered.
