All the functions in here are marked a Non-public.
We describe it anyway because it is occasionally useful
to understand how the work is done.
Arguments are a way of describing a named parameter to a function.
They have two important roles within gtk+:
they describe object properties.
This means that they present an interface to get and set a named-type
for any type of object in a consistent way.
(All the relevant functions to do this start with gtk_object_set
or gtk_object_get).
they describe signal arguments.
This is a lot less often needed but still useful.
Usually if you are just emitting or creating a particular signal
it is more convenient to just use gtk_signal_emit() or gtk_signal_new().
However if you are writing a function to emit or create an arbitrary
signal, you must use gtk_signal_emitv() or gtk_signal_newv().
#GtkObject.
Utility function to manipulate lists of named, typed arguments.
Implementation of Object Properties
GtkCellRendererTextPixbuf
The #GtkData object is a very simple object intended to be used as a base
class for objects which contain data (i.e. the 'Model' in the object-oriented
Model/View/Controller framework).
Currently it is not very useful since all it provides is a "disconnect" signal.
This signal could be emitted by a #GtkData subclass to notify any 'Views'
that they should disconnect from the #GtkData (the 'Model'), possibly just
before the #GtkData is destroyed.
abstract base class for objects containing data.

What are Signal Marshallers?
Marshals are functions which all have the same prototype:
they take a #GtkObject, a #GtkSignalFunc, a #gpointer,
and an array of argument values.
The functions are names gtk_marshall_RETURNTYPE__PARAMTYPE1_PARAMTYPE2....
They then call a native function: the GtkObject is the first
parameter passed in. The arguments are passed in the native
calling convention: chars, shorts, ints, longs may be packed
on the stack, or tucked in registers: it doesn't matter
because the same calling convention will be generated
inside the gtkmarshal code as is expected where you define
your handlers.
So the function named:
gtk_marshal_BOOL__POINTER_INT_INT_UINT(GtkObject*, GtkSignalFunc, gpointer, GtkArg*);
will call the #GtkSignalFunc assuming it was a function with signature:
gboolean sigfunc(gpointer,gint,gint,guint);
Writing Custom Marshals
Marshals are primarily used as arguments to gtk_signal_new().
Sometimes, you may find that a marshaller you need isn't available
in the standard list. Then you have to write your own.
If you wish to define a signal with a new type of argument list.
Suppose you want 2 pointers and 2 integers.
You would write:
typedef int (*GtkSignal_INT__POINTER_POINTER_INT_INT)(
gpointer, gpointer, gint, gint
);
void marshal_INT__POINTER_POINTER_INT_INT(GtkObject* object,
GtkSignalFunc func,
gpointer func_data,
GtkArg* args)
{
GtkSignal_NONE__POINTER_POINTER_INT_INT rfunc;
gint* return_val;
return_val = GTK_RETLOC_INT(args[4]);
rfunc = (GtkSignal_INT__POINTER_POINTER_INT_INT)func;
*return_val = (*rfunc)(object,
GTK_VALUE_POINTER(args[0]),
GTK_VALUE_POINTER(args[1]),
GTK_VALUE_INT(args[2]),
GTK_VALUE_INT(args[3]),
func_data);
}

allow you to do that. (For this in particular
it is convenient to pass g_free() as a #GtkSignalDestroy
function).

@return_val: specify the return-value type for the signal (possibly
#GTK_TYPE_NONE).
@nparams: specify the number of parameters the signal
receives from the caller of gtk_signal_emit().
@params: array of #GtkTypes the signal handlers for this signal
should have in their prototype (of length nparams).
@Returns: the signal id. (See #GtkSignals)
Mark an allocated object as constructed.
This is used for situations
that require precise control of the construction process.
This is done when gtk_object_default_construct() is inadequate.
In #GtkCList the need arises because #GtkCList does construction work that
must happen after its derivers. This work
cannot be done in an initializer function, so an alternate
constructor is mandatory. It calls gtk_object_constructed() to
indicate it has done its job, so that no other constructor will
be invoked.
Normally this function is just automatically run from
gtk_object_default_construct().
@object: object which has been constructed. This is usually
done automatically by gtk_object_new() and gtk_object_newv().
This function is called to construct arguments that haven't been initialized
but have the #GTK_ARG_CONSTRUCT flag set.
All number arguments are set to 0. All pointers and strings
are set to NULL.
Normally invoked by gtk_object_new() automatically; gtk_type_new() can
be used to bypass it.
@object: the object to initialize.
Gets an array of argument values from an object.
@object: the object to get arguments from.
@n_args: the number of arguments to query.
@args: the arguments to fill in.
Construct an object with an array of arguments.
@object_type: the type of the object to create.
@n_args: the number of arguments to set.
@args: an array of n_args arguments (which are name and value pairs).
@Returns: the new GtkObject.
Get all the arguments that may be used for a given type.
In Java, this type of mechanism is called
introspection. It is used by applications
like Glade, that have to determine what can be done to an object
at run-time.
@class_type: the GtkType of the ObjectClass
(returned from GTK_OBJECT_CLASS(class)->type for example).
@arg_flags: if non-NULL, obtains the #GtkArgFlags that apply to
each argument. You must g_free() this if you request it.
@n_args: the number of arguments is returned in this field.
@Returns: an array of arguments, that you must deallocate with g_free().
Set an array of arguments.
@object: the object whose arguments should be set.
@n_args: the number of arguments to set.
@args: the desired values, as an array of #GtkArgs (which contain
the names, types, and values of the arguments).

@Returns:
Add an emission hook for a type of signal, for any object.
@signal_id: the type of signal to hook for.
@hook_func: the function to invoke to handle the emission hook.
@data: the user data passed in to hook_func.
@Returns: the id (that you may pass as a parameter
to gtk_signal_remove_emission_hook()).
@i:
@h:
@d:
Add an emission hook for a type of signal, for any object.
(with control of what happens when the hook is
destroyed).
@signal_id: the type of signal add the hook for.
@hook_func: the function to invoke to handle the hook.
@data: the user data passed in to hook_func.
@destroy: a function to invoke when the hook is destroyed,
to clean up any allocation done just for this
signal handler.
@Returns: the id (that you may pass as a parameter
to gtk_signal_remove_emission_hook()).
Returns whether a connection id is valid (and optionally not blocked).
@object: the object to search for the desired handler.
@handler_id: the connection id.
@may_be_blocked: whether it is acceptable to return a blocked
handler.
@Returns: TRUE if the signal exists and wasn't blocked,
unless #may_be_blocked was specified. FALSE otherwise.
Destroy all the signal handlers connected to an object.
This is done automatically when the object is destroyed.
This function is labeled private.
@object: the object whose signal handlers should be destroyed.
Find out the recursion depth of emissions for a particular type
of signal and object. (So it will
always return 0 or 1 if #GTK_RUN_NO_RECURSE is specified)
This is a way to avoid recursion: you can see if
you are currently running in that signal handler and emit it only
if you are.
Another way to look at it is that this number increases
by one when #gtk_signal_emit(), et al, are called,
and decreases by one when #gtk_signal_emit() returns.
@object: the object with the signal handler.
@signal_id: the signal id.
@Returns: the recursion depth of emissions of this signal for this
object.
Find out the recursion depth of emissions for a particular type
of signal and object. Just like gtk_signal_n_emissions()
except it will lookup the signal id for you.
@object: the object with the signal handler.
@name: the signal name.
@Returns: the recursion depth of emissions of this signal for this
object.
Obtain information about a signal.
@signal_id: the signal type identifier.
@Returns: a pointer to a GtkSignalQuery structure
which contains all the information, or NULL.
The pointer is allocated just for you: you must g_free() it.
Delete an emission hook. (see gtk_signal_add_emission_hook())
@signal_id: the id of the signal type.
@hook_id: the id of the emission handler, returned by add_emission_hook().
@i:
@h:
These set default functions to call when the user didn't
supply a function when connecting. (These are rarely
used, and probably only for language bindings)
By default, there are no such functions.
@marshal_func: the function to invoke on every handlers for which there
isn't a function pointer. May be NULL.
@destroy_func: the function to invoke when each hook is destroyed.
May be NULL.
