[Gtk-sharp-list] accelgroup.Connect problem

[Matthew Pirocchi]

Hi Davide,

The "IntPtr" parameter refers to a C function pointer, not a C# method
group. It's generally just used internally, for interop with Gtk+.

Generally, setting up accelerators looks something like this:

// Initialize the AccelGroup
AccelGroup accelGroup = new AccelGroup ();
AddAccelGroup (accelGroup);

...

// Create the create the menu item you want to set up the accelerator for
MenuItem menuItem = new MenuItem ();
// Hook up the event handler to the Activated event
menuItem.Activated += HandleMenuItemActivated;

...

// Add the accelerator for the menu item
newMenuItem.AddAccelerator
("activate", accelGroup,
 new AccelKey (Gdk.Key.Left,
Gdk.ModifierType.MetaMask, AccelFlags.Visible));


Hope this helps,
- Matthew
