Description peterfoley 2001-05-24 09:11:14 UTC
cannot drag text to or from a GTK2.0 text widget....
I used the testtext process to find/debug this....
Running Solaris 8 FCS on an Ultra 10 machine...
The version of GTK we built was from CVS head dated: 23rd May '01....
This was recreated with motif1.2/motif2.1/java AWT/java Swing/Xview apps 

ran the .libs/testtext through gdb and the following is the output received
to standard out:

Comment 1 peterfoley 2001-05-24 14:38:33 UTC
this does not apply to Java Swing apps....as was stated originally in
the bug report
Comment 2 Havoc Pennington 2001-05-24 16:05:20 UTC
Would seem to indicate that gdk_utf8_to_compound_text() attempts to
convert to charset "646" which appears to mean that g_get_charset()
returns "646" - g_get_charset() must be hosed, I don't think that's a
sensible charset is it?
