Description Vitaly Tishkov 2001-06-05 10:58:44 UTC 
There is a function

void        gtk_widget_set_state            (GtkWidget *widget,
                                              GtkStateType state);

which sets a widget state.
But looks that it's impossible to get this state.

I propose to add function
GtkStateType gtk_widget_get_state (GtkWidget *widget).

(LIke similar bugs should probably be addressed as a single
"unpaired getter/setter bug with all such cases listed, since
the number of such cases is large - probably hundreds.

Traditionally, we have simply said that the struct fields
in a GtkWidget are accessible for reading, but not writing,
so you would simply use widget->state. We might conceivably
want to change this policy and uniformly add getters.)
