class: BuilderScope

[22:7] extends: object

Provides language binding support to GtkBuilder. The goal of GtkBuilderScope is to look up programming-language-specific values for strings that are given in a GtkBuilder UI file. The primary intended audience is bindings that want to provide deeper integration of GtkBuilder into the language. A GtkBuilderScope instance may be used with multiple GtkBuilder objects, even at once. By default, GTK will use its own implementation of GtkBuilderScope for the C language which can be created via [ctor@Gtk.BuilderCScope.new]. If you implement GtkBuilderScope for a language binding, you may want to (partially) derive from or fall back to a [class@Gtk.BuilderCScope], as that class implements support for automatic lookups from C symbols.

Methods

• BuilderScope (Handle = null)

  Creates a new BuilderScope by wrapping a native handle or another wrapper.

  • @p Handle is the native handle or another wrapper whose handle to adopt.

• toNativeHandle (Source)

  Normalizes a constructor argument into a raw pointer carrier. Accepts a raw NativeHandle, a raw NativeBuffer returned from fn.call(...), another generated wrapper exposing handle(), or null. Returns null when the argument carries no pointer.

  • @p Source is the raw handle, raw buffer, wrapper, or null.
  • @r A raw pointer carrier or null when no pointer is present.

• getLib ()

  Returns the opened native library for this generated wrapper.

  • @r The opened native library.

• handle ()

  Returns the wrapped NativeHandle.

  • @r The wrapped NativeHandle.

• isNull ()

  Returns true when the wrapped handle is null.

  • @r A bool.

• describe ()

  Returns a small string for debugging generated wrappers.

  • @r A string.
