Explanation

We make use of the code in How to display a 2D array in GtkTreeView - Part 5 - get user selection? to display a 2D array in a treeview.

What's new here:

  1. Setup foreach to call the function process() for each node in the liststore.
  2. With the $model and $iter passed to you by php-gtk2, you can perform any processing you like here. In this example, we only output the column values of each row.
