class: Native

[20:7] extends: object

An interface for widgets that have their own [class@Gdk.Surface]. The obvious example of a GtkNative is GtkWindow. Every widget that is not itself a GtkNative is contained in one, and you can get it with [method@Gtk.Widget.get_native]. To get the surface of a GtkNative, use [method@Gtk.Native.get_surface]. It is also possible to find the GtkNative to which a surface belongs, with [func@Gtk.Native.get_for_surface]. In addition to a [class@Gdk.Surface], a GtkNative also provides a [class@Gsk.Renderer] for rendering on that surface. To get the renderer, use [method@Gtk.Native.get_renderer].

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

  • @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.

• get_renderer ()

  Returns the renderer that is used for this GtkNative.

• get_surface ()

  Returns the surface of this GtkNative.

• realize ()

• unrealize ()

  Unrealizes a GtkNative. This should only be used by subclasses.
