Description Doug Quale 2005-03-14 04:14:44 UTC 
Version details: pygtk-2.6.0

Constructors that don't take any arguments will accept arguments of any type and
number without complaint.  This is unpythonic, and it would be better to give
errors instead of simply ignoring them.

Examples:

>>> ec = gtk.EntryCompletion(1, 2, 3)
>>> cell = gtk.CellRendererText(1, 2, 3)
Comment 1 Johan (not receiving bugmail) Dahlin 2005-03-15 20:40:46 UTC 
Fixed in CVS HEAD.
Thanks.
