                      const gchar *stock_id,
                      gint value);

gtk_radio_action_new has been deprecated since version 3.10 and should not be used in newly-written code.

GSList *group = NULL;
GtkRadioAction *action;
 
while ( ...more actions to add... /)
  {
     action = gtk_radio_action_new (...);
     
     gtk_radio_action_set_group (action, group);
     group = gtk_radio_action_get_group (action);
  }

Parameters
