[pygtk]Set the data in treeview on button click

[Vijay Manohar]

Hi All,

I am a newbie to pygtk, and I have been practising the stuff since two
weeks, I have been trying to design UI from executing some AT commands, I
have designed a simple UI for this, and on click of  an Ok button, I want
the data to be pasted on to the treestore,

I am also pasting out my code for comments, as well as suggestions,

#/usr/bin/env python
"""This module handles the gui information for the AT TEST SUITE window"""

import pygtk
pygtk.require("2.0")
import gtk
from os import path
from serialtest import get_file_name

def create_textbox():
    # Creata a text entry for the gtk window to enter the device information
    textbox =3D gtk.Entry()
    return textbox

def create_label():
    # Create a Label before the text entry
    label =3D gtk.Label()
    label.set_text("Device Information:   ")
    return label

def create_menu_items():
    """Method for creating Menu Items, and returns the menu bar items"""


    #create a File Menu
    file_menu =3D gtk.Menu()

    #create sub items under the file item
    run_tests_item =3D gtk.MenuItem("Run Tests")
    quit_item =3D gtk.MenuItem("Quit")

    #now create another menu called as Help
    help_menu =3D gtk.Menu()

    #create the about named menu item
    about_item =3D gtk.MenuItem("About")

    #add menu items to the Menu
    file_menu.append(run_tests_item)
    file_menu.append(quit_item)
    help_menu.append(about_item)

    #Attach the callback signal to the activate Item
    run_tests_item.connect("activate", menuitem_response, "Run Tests")
    quit_item.connect("activate", destroy, "Quit")
    about_item.connect("activate", menuitem_response, "About")

    #now we associate menu with file item
    file_item =3D gtk.MenuItem("File")

    #Now associate file menu items with file item, as their submenu's
    file_item.set_submenu(file_menu)
    help_item =3D gtk.MenuItem("Help")

    #now associate the same for help also
    help_item.set_submenu(help_menu)
    menu_bar =3D gtk.MenuBar()

    #now append the menu items to Menu bar
    menu_bar.append(file_item)

    # add the cell to the tvcolumn and allow it to expand

any suggestions and modifications are welcome.

Any help is really appreciated
