How to add a custom event to Gtk::Statusbar?

Desktop Ruby-Gnome 2

Hello list,

How can I make a Gtk::Statusbar respond to a “new signal”, like :clicked

status_bar = Gtk::Statusbar.new
status_bar.signal_connect(:clicked) do
puts “test - click works!”
end

I believe one has to use Glib, type_register and signal_new, but
this confuses me right now. Maybe one of you has an easy example for
doing this?

PS: I believe I could use EventBox, but I wanted to solve this
without it using EventBox this time (if possible, else i will
just settle for EventBox)

Thanks

This doesn’t look to be enough. The signal must be emitted somehow. In
order to be emitted, the mouse click must be somehow received by the
widget.

You should really use GtkEventBox if you want to handle mouse clicks.
It’s aimed at your problem.
