[535:14] static extends: object
Generated metadata helpers for EventControllerKey class surfaces.
signals ()
Returns signal metadata for
EventControllerKey.
A list.[252:7] extends: object
Generated low-level callback wrapper for GIR callback im-update.
EventControllerKeyImupdateCallback (callback Fn, UserData = null)
Creates one native callback wrapper. The wrapper owns a trampoline that converts native pointers into generated wrapper objects before invoking
Fn.
Fn is the Aussom callback implementation.UserData is retained and passed through to Fn on each invocation when provided.trampoline (nativeSelf, nativeUserData)
Internal trampoline. Converts native pointer arguments into generated wrapper instances, then invokes the user's callback.
callback ()
Returns the wrapped NativeCallback.
handle ()
Returns the callback as a NativeHandle.
close ()
Closes the underlying NativeCallback.
isClosed ()
Returns true when the callback has been closed.
[13:7] extends: object
Provides access to key events.
EventControllerKey ()
Creates a new event controller that will handle key events.
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 exposinghandle(), or null. Returns null when the argument carries no pointer.
Source is the raw handle, raw buffer, wrapper, or null.A raw pointer carrier or null when no pointer is present.getLib ()
Returns the opened native library for this generated wrapper.
The opened native library.handle ()
Returns the wrapped NativeHandle.
The wrapped NativeHandle.isNull ()
Returns true when the wrapped handle is null.
A bool.describe ()
Returns a small string for debugging generated wrappers.
A string.asEventController ()
Wraps this handle as
EventController.
A EventController object.connectSignal (string Name, CallbackObj)
Connects one generated callback wrapper to a named signal.
Name is the signal name.CallbackObj is the generated callback wrapper to connect.The connected handler id.disconnectSignalHandler (int HandlerId)
Disconnects one retained signal handler id.
HandlerId is the signal handler id to disconnect.None.setOnImupdate (callback Fn, UserData = null)
Emitted whenever the input method context filters away a keypress and prevents the @controller receiving it. See [method@Gtk.EventControllerKey.set_im_context] and [method@Gtk.IMContext.filter_keypress].
Fn is the Aussom callback.Fn is called with (EventControllerKey Self).UserData is retained and passed through to the generated callback wrapper when provided.The connected handler id.setOnKeypressed (callback Fn, UserData = null)
Emitted whenever a key is pressed.
Fn is the Aussom callback.Fn is called with (EventControllerKey Self, int Keyval, int Keycode, string State).UserData is retained and passed through to the generated callback wrapper when provided.The connected handler id.setOnKeyreleased (callback Fn, UserData = null)
Emitted whenever a key is released.
Fn is the Aussom callback.Fn is called with (EventControllerKey Self, int Keyval, int Keycode, string State).UserData is retained and passed through to the generated callback wrapper when provided.The connected handler id.setOnModifiers (callback Fn, UserData = null)
Emitted whenever the state of modifier keys and pointer buttons change.
Fn is the Aussom callback.Fn is called with (EventControllerKey Self, string State).UserData is retained and passed through to the generated callback wrapper when provided.The connected handler id.forward (object widget)
Forwards the current event of this @controller to a @widget. This function can only be used in handlers for the [signal@Gtk.EventControllerKey::key-pressed], [signal@Gtk.EventControllerKey::key-released] or [signal@Gtk.EventControllerKey::modifiers] signals.
widget is a GtkWidget.get_group ()
Gets the key group of the current event of this @controller. See [method@Gdk.KeyEvent.get_layout].
get_im_context ()
Gets the input method context of the key @controller.
set_im_context (object im_context)
Sets the input method context of the key @controller.
im_context is a GtkIMContext.None.[393:7] extends: object
Generated low-level callback wrapper for GIR callback key-released.
EventControllerKeyKeyreleasedCallback (callback Fn, UserData = null)
Creates one native callback wrapper. The wrapper owns a trampoline that converts native pointers into generated wrapper objects before invoking
Fn.
Fn is the Aussom callback implementation.UserData is retained and passed through to Fn on each invocation when provided.trampoline (nativeSelf, keyval, keycode, state, nativeUserData)
Internal trampoline. Converts native pointer arguments into generated wrapper instances, then invokes the user's callback.
callback ()
Returns the wrapped NativeCallback.
handle ()
Returns the callback as a NativeHandle.
close ()
Closes the underlying NativeCallback.
isClosed ()
Returns true when the callback has been closed.
[464:7] extends: object
Generated low-level callback wrapper for GIR callback modifiers.
EventControllerKeyModifiersCallback (callback Fn, UserData = null)
Creates one native callback wrapper. The wrapper owns a trampoline that converts native pointers into generated wrapper objects before invoking
Fn.
Fn is the Aussom callback implementation.UserData is retained and passed through to Fn on each invocation when provided.trampoline (nativeSelf, state, nativeUserData)
Internal trampoline. Converts native pointer arguments into generated wrapper instances, then invokes the user's callback.
callback ()
Returns the wrapped NativeCallback.
handle ()
Returns the callback as a NativeHandle.
close ()
Closes the underlying NativeCallback.
isClosed ()
Returns true when the callback has been closed.
[322:7] extends: object
