How to add GtkWidget to GtkToolbar?

Question

I want to insert GtkEntry widget to GtkToolbar. Following line

gtk_toolbar_insert(GTK_TOOLBAR(searchPanel_Toolbar),
                      GTK_TOOL_ITEM(searchPanel_Entry), -1);

gives me this error:

Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_toolbar_insert: assertion `GTK_IS_TOOL_ITEM (item)' failed

How can I add widgets to GtkToolbar without gtk_toolbar_insert_widget() which is deprecated?

The error means that searchPanel_Entry is not a GtkToolItem. What exactly is searchPanel_Entry ? — another.anon.coward

GtkToolbar *toolbar = gtk_toolbar_new();
GtkToolItem *item  = gtk_tool_item_new();
GtkEntry *entry = gtk_entry_new();

gtk_container_add( GTK_CONTAINER(item), GTK_WIDGET(entry) );
gtk_toolbar_insert( GTK_TOOLBAR(toolbar), GTK_TOOL_ITEM(item), -1 );
