Dan Winship 104dbedf07 * generator/ClassBase.cs (IgnoreMethod): Don't ignore GetFoo and
SetFoo methods if they aren't in the right form to be turned into
        property accessors. (Causes 13 previously ignored methods to now
        be wrapped. See doc/ChangeLog.)

        * gtk/Gtk.metadata: Fix up a few of those newly-exposed methods

<summary>A text entry field with a dropdown list</summary>
<remarks>
<para>
The <see cref="T:Gtk.Combo" /> widget consists of a single-line text entry field and a
drop-down list. The drop-down list is displayed when the user clicks
on a small arrow button to the right of the entry field.
</para>
<para>
The drop-down list is a <see cref="T:Glib.List" /> widget and can be accessed using the
list member of the <see cref="T:Gtk.Combo" />. List elements can contain arbitrary
widgets, but if an element is not a plain label, then you must use
the <see cref="M:Glib.List.SetItemString()" /> function. This sets the string which
will be placed in the text entry field when the item is selected.
</para>
<para>
By default, the user can step through the items in the list using the
arrow (cursor) keys, though this behaviour can be turned off with
<see cref="P:Gtk.Combo.UseArrows" /> = <see langword="false" />.
</para>
<example>
<para>
Creating a <see cref="T:Gtk.Combo" /> widget with simple text items:
</para>
<code lang="c#">
using System;
using Gtk;
class ComboSample
{
Combo combo;
static void Main ()
{
new ComboSample ();
}
ComboSample ()
{
Application.Init ();
Window win = new Window ("ComboSample");
win.DeleteEvent += new DeleteEventHandler (OnWinDelete);
string[] list = new string[] {"one", "two", "three"};
combo = new Combo ();
combo.PopdownStrings = list;
combo.DisableActivate ();
combo.Entry.Activated += new EventHandler (OnEntryActivated);
win.Add (combo);
win.ShowAll ();
Application.Run ();
}
void OnEntryActivated (object o, EventArgs args)
{
Console.WriteLine (combo.Entry.Text);
}
void OnWinDelete (object obj, DeleteEventArgs args)
{
Application.Quit ();
}
}
