[gtkada] Signal handler

[Op de Coul, Manuel]

It works now, thanks very much again!

Arnaud, I have attached a patch for gtk-entry_completion.ads for you to review.

Best,
Manuel

No, iterator can be copied in Ada, it is a plain C structure,

Two issues here:

1. The model passed to the handler is not the model of the completion
object. I didn't look in the sources, but I suspect they create a derived
model (sorted or filtered) and pass this model instead of the original one.

2. The iterator is the second argument.

Therefore it should be:

   Model : aliased Gtk_Tree_Model_Record;
   Iter  : Gtk_Tree_Iter;
begin
   Model.Set_Object (Get_Address (Nth (Params, 1))); -- Get the model
   Get_Tree_Iter (Nth (Params, 2), Iter); -- Get the iterator
   Set_Text
   (  Gtk_Entry (Get_Entry (Gtk_Entry_Completion (Object))),
      Get_String (Model'Access, Iter, 1)
   );

Note that this leaks. Gtk_List_Store is not a floating object. After
Set_Model its reference count is 2. So you have to add:

   Unref (List);
