Class

GtkSourceCompletion

Description [src]

final class GtkSource.Completion : GObject.Object {
  /* No available fields */
}

Main Completion Object.

The completion system helps the user when they writes some text, such as words, command names, functions, and suchlike. Proposals can be shown, to complete the text the user is writing. Each proposal can contain an additional piece of information (for example documentation), that is displayed when the “Details” button is clicked.

Proposals are created via a GtkSourceCompletionProvider. There can be for example a provider to complete words (see GtkSourceCompletionWords), another provider for the completion of function names, etc. To add a provider, call gtk_source_completion_add_provider().

The GtkSourceCompletionProposal interface represents a proposal.

If a proposal contains extra information (see GTK_SOURCE_COMPLETION_COLUMN_DETAILS), it will be displayed in a supplemental details window, which appears when the “Details” button is clicked.

Each GtkSourceView object is associated with a GtkSourceCompletion instance. This instance can be obtained with gtk_source_view_get_completion(). The GtkSourceView class contains also the GtkSourceView::show-completion signal.

A same GtkSourceCompletionProvider object can be used for several GtkSourceCompletions.
