<p>
      Here is an example of a simple, but typical use of a <a class="link" href="GtkCombo.html" title="GtkCombo"><span class="type">GtkCombo</span></a>:
      </p>
<div class="informalexample">
  <table class="listing_frame" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
    <tbody>
      <tr>
        <td class="listing_lines" align="right"><pre>1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9</pre></td>
        <td class="listing_code"><pre class="programlisting"><span class="n">GtkWidget</span> <span class="o">*</span><span class="n">combo</span><span class="p">;</span>
<span class="n">GList</span> <span class="o">*</span><span class="n">items</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="nb">NULL</span><span class="p">;</span>

<span class="n">items</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="n">g_list_append</span> <span class="p">(</span><span class="n">items</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="s">&quot;First Item&quot;</span><span class="p">);</span>
<span class="n">items</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="n">g_list_append</span> <span class="p">(</span><span class="n">items</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="s">&quot;Second Item&quot;</span><span class="p">);</span>
<span class="n">items</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="n">g_list_append</span> <span class="p">(</span><span class="n">items</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="s">&quot;Third Item&quot;</span><span class="p">);</span>

<span class="n">combo</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="n">gtk_combo_new</span> <span class="p">();</span>
<span class="n">gtk_combo_set_popdown_strings</span> <span class="p">(</span><span class="n">GTK_COMBO</span> <span class="p">(</span><span class="n">combo</span><span class="p">),</span> <span class="n">items</span><span class="p">);</span></pre></td>
      </tr>
    </tbody>
  </table>
</div>

<p>
      In order to react to the user's selection, connect to the <span class="type">“changed”</span>
      signal on the combo and use 
      <code class="literal">gtk_entry_get_text (GTK_ENTRY (combo-&gt;entry))</code>
      to retrieve the selected text.
    </p>
<p>
      And here is how it would be done using <a class="link" href="GtkComboBoxEntry.html" title="GtkComboBoxEntry"><span class="type">GtkComboBoxEntry</span></a>:
      </p>
<div class="informalexample">
  <table class="listing_frame" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
    <tbody>
      <tr>
        <td class="listing_lines" align="right"><pre>1
2
3
4
5</pre></td>
        <td class="listing_code"><pre class="programlisting"><span class="n">combo_box</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="n">gtk_combo_box_text_new_with_entry</span> <span class="p">();</span>

<span class="n">gtk_combo_box_text_append</span> <span class="p">(</span><span class="n">GTK_COMBO_BOX_TEXT</span> <span class="p">(</span><span class="n">combo_box</span><span class="p">),</span> <span class="s">&quot;First Item&quot;</span><span class="p">);</span>
<span class="n">gtk_combo_box_text_append</span> <span class="p">(</span><span class="n">GTK_COMBO_BOX_TEXT</span> <span class="p">(</span><span class="n">combo_box</span><span class="p">),</span> <span class="s">&quot;Second Item&quot;</span><span class="p">);</span>
<span class="n">gtk_combo_box_text_append</span> <span class="p">(</span><span class="n">GTK_COMBO_BOX_TEXT</span> <span class="p">(</span><span class="n">combo_box</span><span class="p">),</span> <span class="s">&quot;Third Item&quot;</span><span class="p">);</span></pre></td>
      </tr>
    </tbody>
  </table>
</div>

<p>
      In order to react to the user's selection, connect to the <a class="link" href="GtkComboBox.html#GtkComboBox-changed" title="The “changed” signal"><span class="type">“changed”</span></a>
      signal on the combo and use 
      <code class="literal">gtk_entry_get_text (GTK_ENTRY (GTK_BIN (combo_box)-&gt;child))</code>
      to retrieve the selected text.
