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.

Frees all the rows in model.
Creates a new iterator object #GdaDataModelIter object which can be used to iterate through
rows in model. The new #GdaDataModelIter does not hold any reference to model (ie. if model
is destroyed at some point, the new iterator will become useless but in any case it will not prevent
the data model from being destroyed).
Depending on the data model's implementation, a new #GdaDataModelIter object may be created,
or a reference to an already existing #GdaDataModelIter may be returned. For example if model only
supports being accessed using a forward moving cursor (say a the result of a SELECT executed by SQLite
with a cursor access mode specified), then this method will always return the same iterator.
If a new #GdaDataModelIter is created, then the row it represents is undefined.
For models which can be accessed randomly, any row can be set using gda_data_model_iter_move_to_row(), and for models which are accessible sequentially only then use gda_data_model_iter_move_next() (and gda_data_model_iter_move_prev() if supported).
Note: for the #GdaDataProxy data model (which proxies any #GdaDataModel for modifications and
has twice the number of columns of the proxied data model), this method will create an iterator
in which only the columns of the proxied data model appear. If you need to have a #GdaDataModelIter
in which all the proxy's columns appear, create it using:
Queries the underlying data model implementation for a description of a given column. That description is returned in the form of a #GdaColumn structure, which contains all the information about the given column in the data model.
WARNING: the returned #GdaColumn object belongs to the model model and
and should not be destroyed; any modification will affect the whole data model.

Dumps a textual representation of the model to the to_stream stream
The following environment variables can affect the resulting output:
where to dump the data model
Dumps a textual representation of the model into a new string. The main differences with gda_data_model_export_to_string() are that
the formatting options are passed using environment variables, and that the data is dumped regardless of the user locale (e.g. dates
are not formatted according to the locale).
The following environment variables can affect the resulting output:
Exports data contained in model to the file file; the format is specified using the format argument. Note that
the date format used is the one used by the connection from which the data model has been made (as the result of a
SELECT statement), or, for other kinds of data models, the default format (refer to gda_data_handler_get_default()) unless
the "cnc" property has been set and points to a #GdaConnection to use that connection's date format.
Specifically, the parameters in the options list can be:

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().
Disables notifications of changes on the given data model. To re-enable notifications again, you should call the #gda_data_model_thaw function.
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.

This method is similar to gda_data_model_get_value_at(), except that it also allows one to specify the expected #GType of the value to get: if the data model returned a #GValue of a type different than the expected one, then this method returns %NULL and an error code.

This is the main function for accessing data in a model which allows random access to its data. To access data in a data model using a cursor, use a #GdaDataModelIter object, obtained using gda_data_model_create_iter().
Note1: the returned #GValue must not be modified directly (unexpected behaviours may occur if you do so).
Note2: the returned value may become invalid as soon as any Libgda part is executed again, which means if you want to keep the value, a copy must be made, however it will remain valid as long as the only Libgda usage is calling gda_data_model_get_value_at() for different values of the same row.
If you want to modify a value stored in a #GdaDataModel, use the gda_data_model_set_value_at() or gda_data_model_set_values() methods.

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.

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.
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().

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.

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
Re-enables notifications of changes on the given data model.
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.
Appends a row to the data model (the new row will possibly have NULL values for all columns, or some other values depending on the data model implementation)

rows in model. The new #GdaDataModelIter does not hold any reference to model (ie. if model
is destroyed at some point, the new iterator will become useless but in any case it will not prevent
the data model from being destroyed).
Depending on the data model's implementation, a new #GdaDataModelIter object may be created,
or a reference to an already existing #GdaDataModelIter may be returned. For example if model only
supports being accessed using a forward moving cursor (say a the result of a SELECT executed by SQLite
with a cursor access mode specified), then this method will always return the same iterator.
If a new #GdaDataModelIter is created, then the row it represents is undefined.
For models which can be accessed randomly, any row can be set using gda_data_model_iter_move_to_row(), and for models which are accessible sequentially only then use gda_data_model_iter_move_next() (and gda_data_model_iter_move_prev() if supported).
Note: for the #GdaDataProxy data model (which proxies any #GdaDataModel for modifications and
has twice the number of columns of the proxied data model), this method will create an iterator
in which only the columns of the proxied data model appear. If you need to have a #GdaDataModelIter

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.

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
