[Gtk-sharp-list] Editable Combo Box

[Daniel Morgan]

You could always keep a StringCollection of your entries.  
Add/Modify/Delete from the StringCollection.  Get a string array from the
StringCollection, and reset the list of strings in the Combo.

Combo combo;
StringCollection myCol = new StringCollection();

combo = new Combo ();
combo.DisableActivate ();
combo.Entry.Changed += new EventHandler (OnComboEntryChanged);
combo.Entry.Editable = false;

String[] myArr = new String[] { "tall","medium","short" };
myCol.AddRange( myArr );

String[] myArr2 = new String[myCol.Count];
myCol.CopyTo( myArr2, 0 );

combo.PopdownStrings = myArr2;

myCol.Add ("another_iterm");

myArr2 = new String[myCol.Count];
myCol.CopyTo( myArr2, 0 );

combo.PopdownStrings = myArr2;

Also, you could create a new class that derives from the Combo that adds
your own functionality.

Hi,
   I am trying to create a combo box in which I can add/modify/delete
entries at runtime. I am facing difficulty in implementing it with the
standard Combo class.
        Is their any round about way to acheive this? 
or am I missing something obvious?

Thanks in advance,
A.
