Detailed Description

A base class for objects that can be built by Gtk::Builder.

Buildable allows objects to extend and customize thier deserialization from Gtk::Builder UI descriptions. The interface includes methods for setting names and properties of objects, parsing custom tags and constructing child objects.

All gtkmm widgets, and many non-widget objects, derive from this base class. The main user of this interface is Gtk::Builder. There should be very little need for applications to call any of Buildable's methods.

Since gtkmm 3.0:

You should derive from this class to use it.

◆ Buildable() [2/2]

Gtk::Buildable::Buildable ( Buildable &&  src)

Member Function Documentation

◆ add_interface()

static void Gtk::Buildable::add_interface ( GType  gtype_implementer)
static

◆ get_name()

Glib::ustring Gtk::Buildable::get_name ( ) const

Gets the name of the buildable object.

Gtk::Builder sets the name based on the [GtkBuilder UI definition][BUILDER-UI] used to construct the buildable.

Since gtkmm 2.12:
Returns
The name set with set_name().

◆ get_type()

static GType Gtk::Buildable::get_type ( )
static

Get the GType for this class, for use with the underlying GObject type system.

◆ gobj() [1/2]

GtkBuildable * Gtk::Buildable::gobj ( )
inline

Provides access to the underlying C GObject.

◆ gobj() [2/2]

const GtkBuildable * Gtk::Buildable::gobj ( ) const
inline

Provides access to the underlying C GObject.

◆ operator=()

Buildable & Gtk::Buildable::operator= ( Buildable &&  src)
noexcept

◆ set_name()

void Gtk::Buildable::set_name ( const Glib::ustring &  name)

Sets the name of the buildable object.

Since gtkmm 2.12:
Parameters
nameName to set.

◆ wrap()

Glib::RefPtr< Gtk::Buildable > wrap ( GtkBuildable *  object,
bool  take_copy = false 
)
related

A Glib::wrap() method for this object.

Parameters
objectThe C instance.
take_copyFalse if the result should take ownership of the C instance. True if it should take a new copy or ref.
Returns
A C++ instance that wraps this C instance.
