Interface

GtkBuildable

Description [src] 

interface Gtk.Buildable : GObject.Object

GtkBuildable allows objects to extend and customize their deserialization from ui files.

The interface includes methods for setting names and properties of objects, parsing custom tags and constructing child objects.

The GtkBuildable interface is implemented by all widgets and many of the non-widget objects that are provided by GTK. The main user of this interface is GtkBuilder. There should be very little need for applications to call any of these functions directly.

An object only needs to implement this interface if it needs to extend the GtkBuilder XML format or run any extra routines at deserialization time.

Prerequisite

In order to implement Buildable, your type must inherit fromGObject.

Implementations

Instance methods

gtk_buildable_get_buildable_id

Gets the ID of the buildable object.

  );
  void (* parser_finished) (
    GtkBuildable* buildable,
    GtkBuilder* builder
  );
  GObject* (* get_internal_child) (
    GtkBuildable* buildable,
    GtkBuilder* builder,
    const char* childname
  );
  
}

The GtkBuildableIface interface contains methods that are necessary to allow GtkBuilder to construct an object from a GtkBuilder UI definition.
