adding number to GtkTextBuffer in gtk+3

how can we add a number of type gint to a TextBuffer in gtk+3? gtk_text_buffer_set_text has argument of type gchar but I want to set integer of type gint

Solution

  • You cannot show an integer value directly. You must first format the integer value in a character buffer and set this as the text 

    GtkTextBuffer *textbuf;
char cbuf[15];
int n, v;
v = 738;
n = sprintf(cbuf, "%d", v);
gtk_text_buffer_set_text(textbuf, cbuf, n);
