Adds a relationship of the specified type with the specified target.
The #AtkRelationType of the relation
The #AtkObject which is to be the target of the relation.
Creates a binding between source_property
on source
and target_property
on target
.
Whenever the source_property
is changed the target_property
is
updated using the same value. For instance:
g_object_bind_property (action, "active", widget, "sensitive", 0);
Will result in the "sensitive" property of the widget #GObject instance to be updated with the same value of the "active" property of the action #GObject instance.
If flags
contains %G_BINDING_BIDIRECTIONAL then the binding will be mutual:
if target_property
on target
changes then the source_property
on source
will be updated as well.
The binding will automatically be removed when either the source
or the
target
instances are finalized. To remove the binding without affecting the
source
and the target
you can just call g_object_unref() on the returned
#GBinding instance.
Removing the binding by calling g_object_unref() on it must only be done if
the binding, source
and target
are only used from a single thread and it
is clear that both source
and target
outlive the binding. Especially it
is not safe to rely on this if the binding, source
or target
can be
finalized from different threads. Keep another reference to the binding and
use g_binding_unbind() instead to be on the safe side.
A #GObject can have multiple bindings.

Creates a binding between source_property

This function is intended for #GObject implementations to re-enforce a [floating][floating-ref] object reference. Doing this is seldom required: all #GInitiallyUnowneds are created with a floating reference which usually just needs to be sunken by calling g_object_ref_sink().
Increases the freeze count on object
. If the freeze count is
non-zero, the emission of "notify" signals on object
is
stopped. The signals are queued until the freeze count is decreased
to zero. Duplicate notifications are squashed so that at most one
#GObject::notify signal is emitted for each property modified while the
object is frozen.
This is necessary for accessors that modify multiple properties to prevent premature notification while the object is still being modified.
Gets the accessible id of the accessible.
Get a list of properties applied to this object as a whole, as an #AtkAttributeSet consisting of name-value pairs. As such these attributes may be considered weakly-typed properties or annotations, as distinct from strongly-typed object data available via other get/set methods. Not all objects have explicit "name-value pair" #AtkAttributeSet properties.
Gets a named field from the objects table of associations (see g_object_set_data()).
name of the key for that association
Gets the accessible description of the accessible.
Gets the 0-based index of this accessible in its parent; returns -1 if the accessible does not have an accessible parent.
Gets the zorder of the accessible. The value G_MININT will be returned if the layer of the accessible is not ATK_LAYER_MDI.
Gets the number of accessible children of the accessible.
Gets the accessible name of the accessible.
Gets a UTF-8 string indicating the POSIX-style LC_MESSAGES locale
of accessible
.
Gets the accessible parent of the accessible. By default this is the one assigned with atk_object_set_parent(), but it is assumed that ATK implementors have ways to get the parent of the object without the need of assigning it manually with atk_object_set_parent(), and will return it with this method.
If you are only interested on the parent assigned with atk_object_set_parent(), use atk_object_peek_parent().
Gets a property of an object.
The value
can be:
In general, a copy is made of the property contents and the caller is responsible for freeing the memory by calling g_value_unset().
Note that g_object_get_property() is really intended for language bindings, g_object_get() is much more convenient for C programming.
the name of the property to get
return location for the property value
This function gets back user data pointers stored via g_object_set_qdata().
A #GQuark, naming the user data pointer
Gets n_properties
properties for an object
.
Obtained properties will be set to values
. All properties must be valid.
Warnings will be emitted and undefined behaviour may result if invalid
properties are passed in.
the names of each property to get

This function is called when implementing subclasses of #AtkObject. It does initialization required for the new object. It is intended that this function should called only in the ..._new() functions used to create an instance of a subclass of #AtkObject
a #gpointer which identifies the object for which the AtkObject was created.
Checks whether object
has a [floating][floating-ref] reference.
Emits a "notify" signal for the property property_name
on object
.
When possible, eg. when signaling a property change from within the class that registered the property, you should use g_object_notify_by_pspec() instead.
Note that emission of the notify signal may be blocked with g_object_freeze_notify(). In this case, the signal emissions are queued and will be emitted (in reverse order) when g_object_thaw_notify() is called.
the name of a property installed on the class of object
.
Emits a "notify" signal for the property specified by pspec
on object
.
This function omits the property name lookup, hence it is faster than g_object_notify().
One way to avoid using g_object_notify() from within the class that registered the properties, and using g_object_notify_by_pspec() instead, is to store the GParamSpec used with g_object_class_install_property() inside a static array, e.g.:
enum
{
PROP_0,
PROP_FOO,
PROP_LAST
};
static GParamSpec *properties[PROP_LAST];
static void
my_object_class_init (MyObjectClass *klass)
{
properties[PROP_FOO] = g_param_spec_int ("foo", "Foo", "The foo",
0, 100,
50,
G_PARAM_READWRITE);
g_object_class_install_property (gobject_class,
PROP_FOO,
properties[PROP_FOO]);
}
and then notify a change on the "foo" property with:
g_object_notify_by_pspec (self, properties[PROP_FOO]);
the #GParamSpec of a property installed on the class of object
.
Emits a state-change signal for the specified state.
Note that as a general rule when the state of an existing object changes, emitting a notification is expected.
an #AtkState whose state is changed
a gboolean which indicates whether the state is being set on or off
Gets the accessible parent of the accessible, if it has been manually assigned with atk_object_set_parent. Otherwise, this function returns %NULL.
This method is intended as an utility for ATK implementors, and not to be exposed to accessible tools. See atk_object_get_parent() for further reference.
Gets the #AtkRelationSet associated with the object.
Increase the reference count of object,
and possibly remove the
[floating][floating-ref] reference, if object
has a floating reference.
In other words, if the object is floating, then this call "assumes ownership" of the floating reference, converting it to a normal reference by clearing the floating flag while leaving the reference count unchanged. If the object is not floating, then this call adds a new normal reference increasing the reference count by one.
Since GLib 2.56, the type of object
will be propagated to the return type
under the same conditions as for g_object_ref().
Removes a property change handler.
a guint which identifies the handler to be removed.
Removes a relationship of the specified type with the specified target.
The #AtkRelationType of the relation
The #AtkObject which is the target of the relation to be removed.
Releases all references to other objects. This can be used to break reference cycles.
This function should only be called from object system implementations.
Sets the accessible ID of the accessible. This is not meant to be presented to the user, but to be an ID which is stable over application development. Typically, this is the gtkbuilder ID. Such an ID will be available for instance to identify a given well-known accessible object for tailored screen reading, or for automatic regression testing.
a character string to be set as the accessible id
Each object carries around a table of associations from strings to pointers. This function lets you set an association.
If the object already had an association with that name, the old association will be destroyed.
Internally, the key
is converted to a #GQuark using g_quark_from_string().
This means a copy of key
is kept permanently (even after object
has been
finalized) — so it is recommended to only use a small, bounded set of values
for key
in your program, to avoid the #GQuark storage growing unbounded.
name of the key

Sets the accessible description of the accessible. You can't set the description to NULL. This is reserved for the initial value. In this aspect NULL is similar to ATK_ROLE_UNKNOWN. If you want to set the name to a empty value you can use "".
a character string to be set as the accessible description
Sets the accessible name of the accessible. You can't set the name to NULL. This is reserved for the initial value. In this aspect NULL is similar to ATK_ROLE_UNKNOWN. If you want to set the name to a empty value you can use "".

Remove a specified datum from the object's data associations, without invoking the association's destroy handler.
name of the key
This function gets back user data pointers stored via
g_object_set_qdata() and removes the data
from object
without invoking its destroy() function (if any was
set).
Usually, calling this function is only required to update
user data pointers with a destroy notifier, for example:
void
object_add_to_user_list (GObject *object,
const gchar *new_string)
{
// the quark, naming the object data
GQuark quark_string_list = g_quark_from_static_string ("my-string-list");
// retrieve the old string list
GList *list = g_object_steal_qdata (object, quark_string_list);
// prepend new string
list = g_list_prepend (list, g_strdup (new_string));
// this changed 'list', so we need to set it again
g_object_set_qdata_full (object, quark_string_list, list, free_string_list);
}
static void
free_string_list (gpointer data)
{
GList *node, *list = data;
for (node = list; node; node = node->next)
g_free (node->data);
g_list_free (list);
}
Using g_object_get_qdata() in the above example, instead of g_object_steal_qdata() would have left the destroy function set, and thus the partial string list would have been freed upon g_object_set_qdata_full().
A #GQuark, naming the user data pointer
Reverts the effect of a previous call to
g_object_freeze_notify(). The freeze count is decreased on object
and when it reaches zero, queued "notify" signals are emitted.
Duplicate notifications for each property are squashed so that at most one #GObject::notify signal is emitted for each property, in the reverse order in which they have been queued.
It is an error to call this function when the freeze count is zero.
Decreases the reference count of object
. When its reference count
drops to 0, the object is finalized (i.e. its memory is freed).
If the pointer to the #GObject may be reused in future (for example, if it is an instance variable of another object), it is recommended to clear the pointer to %NULL rather than retain a dangling pointer to a potentially invalid #GObject instance. Use g_clear_object() for this.
Get a list of properties applied to this object as a whole, as an #AtkAttributeSet consisting of name-value pairs. As such these attributes may be considered weakly-typed properties or annotations, as distinct from strongly-typed object data available via other get/set methods. Not all objects have explicit "name-value pair" #AtkAttributeSet properties.
Gets the accessible description of the accessible.
Gets the 0-based index of this accessible in its parent; returns -1 if the accessible does not have an accessible parent.
Gets the zorder of the accessible. The value G_MININT will be returned if the layer of the accessible is not ATK_LAYER_MDI.
Gets the accessible name of the accessible.
Gets a UTF-8 string indicating the POSIX-style LC_MESSAGES locale
of accessible
.
Gets the accessible parent of the accessible. By default this is the one assigned with atk_object_set_parent(), but it is assumed that ATK implementors have ways to get the parent of the object without the need of assigning it manually with atk_object_set_parent(), and will return it with this method.
If you are only interested on the parent assigned with atk_object_set_parent(), use atk_object_peek_parent().

This function essentially limits the life time of the closure
to
the life time of the object. That is, when the object is finalized,
the closure
is invalidated by calling g_closure_invalidate() on
it, in order to prevent invocations of the closure with a finalized
(nonexisting) object. Also, g_object_ref() and g_object_unref() are
added as marshal guards to the closure,
to ensure that an extra
reference count is held on object
during invocation of the
closure
. Usually, this function will be called on closures that
use this object
as closure data.
#GClosure to watch
Find the #GParamSpec with the given name for an
interface. Generally, the interface vtable passed in as g_iface
will be the default vtable from g_type_default_interface_ref(), or,
if you know the interface has already been loaded,
g_type_default_interface_peek().
any interface vtable for the interface, or the default vtable for the interface
name of a property to look up.
Add a property to an interface; this is only useful for interfaces that are added to GObject-derived types. Adding a property to an interface forces all objects classes with that interface to have a compatible property. The compatible property could be a newly created #GParamSpec, but normally g_object_class_override_property() will be used so that the object class only needs to provide an implementation and inherits the property description, default value, bounds, and so forth from the interface property.
This function is meant to be called from the interface's default
vtable initialization function (the class_init
member of
#GTypeInfo.) It must not be called after after class_init
has
been called for any object types implementing this interface.
If pspec
is a floating reference, it will be consumed.
