Comment 1 Mattias Karlsson 2006-03-25 11:00:34 UTC 
Just a quick note about this bug (I haven't given it much thought so I can be missing something). The problem seems to be the following code:

    def _changed_unichar(self, entry):
        if self.property_loading:
            return

        text = entry.get_chars(0, -1)
        if text:
            self.set(text[0])

Since we are working with normal strings the unicode character will actually be stored as several characters. When doing a text[0] we will not get the unicode character but something else and in this case it seems to be invalid.

Patch (preliminary)

I wrote a quick patch that seems to work on my system. Not sure if it assumes too much about the encoding?

Patch

This patch should hopefully be correct. Changes:

* the encoding of the string will always be utf-8 in gtk (if I'm not mistaken)
* no need to encode the unicode string, it will be accepted as it is
