An Entry which also offers a range of pre-configured options to choose
from. 
It is a
composite Widget with an Entry wrapped in a mechanism to activate a popup
dialog allowing the user to pick from a list of options.
ComboBoxEntry is powered by the same mechanism as the parent class
ComboBox; the option list is driven by a TreeModel. When constructing a
ComboBoxEntry, you specify the column from the model that will supply the
data to be used as the list of options.
Almost everyone dealing with ComboBoxEntries wonders how to get the text
showing in the Widget. You do this by very simply getting by getting it
from the Entry. Call getChild() and call that
Entry's getText(); given:
ComboBoxEntry combo;
Entry e;
String str;
...
you simply write:
e = (Entry) combo.getChild();
str = e.getText();
and then do something with the returned String.
Like GtkComboBox, GtkComboBoxEntry has a
second text-only API that is lumped into the same classes while not being
able to be used together. We have similarly spliced this functionality out
of this class into our subclass TextComboBoxEntry.
