Signals that a single key has possibly changed. Backend implementations should call this if a key has possibly changed its value.
Signals that a list of keys have possibly changed. Backend implementations should call this if keys have possibly changed their values.
Signals that all keys below a given path may have possibly changed. Backend implementations should call this if an entire path of keys have possibly changed their values.
Signals that the writability of all keys below a given path may have changed.
Signals that the writability of a single key has possibly changed.
Returns the default #GSettingsBackend. It is possible to override the default by setting the GSETTINGS_BACKEND environment variable to the name of a settings backend.
Set the GObject of a D ObjectG wrapper.
Get a pointer to the underlying C object.
Calls g_object_ref() on a GObject.
Calls g_object_unref() on a GObject.
Get the GType of an object.
GObject GType property.
Convenience method to return this cast to a type. For use in D with statements.
Template to get the D object from a C GObject and cast it to the given D object type.
Connect a D closure to an object signal.
Template for setting a GObject property.
Template for getting a GObject property.
Creates a binding between source_property on source and target_property on target.
Creates a binding between source_property on source and target_property on target, allowing you to set the transformation functions to be used by the binding.
This function is intended for #GObject implementations to re-enforce a floating[floating-ref] object reference. Doing this is seldom required: all #GInitiallyUnowneds are created with a floating reference which usually just needs to be sunken by calling gobject.object.ObjectG.refSink.
Increases the freeze count on object. If the freeze count is non-zero, the emission of "notify" signals on object is stopped. The signals are queued until the freeze count is decreased to zero. Duplicate notifications are squashed so that at most one #GObject::notify signal is emitted for each property modified while the object is frozen.
Gets a named field from the objects table of associations (see gobject.object.ObjectG.setData).
Gets a property of an object.
This function gets back user data pointers stored via gobject.object.ObjectG.setQdata.
Gets n_properties properties for an object. Obtained properties will be set to values. All properties must be valid. Warnings will be emitted and undefined behaviour may result if invalid properties are passed in.
Checks whether object has a floating[floating-ref] reference.
Emits a "notify" signal for the property property_name on object.
Emits a "notify" signal for the property specified by pspec on object.
Increase the reference count of object, and possibly remove the floating[floating-ref] reference, if object has a floating reference.
Releases all references to other objects. This can be used to break reference cycles.
Each object carries around a table of associations from strings to pointers. This function lets you set an association.
Sets a property on an object.
Remove a specified datum from the object's data associations, without invoking the association's destroy handler.
This function gets back user data pointers stored via gobject.object.ObjectG.setQdata and removes the data from object without invoking its destroy() function (if any was set). Usually, calling this function is only required to update user data pointers with a destroy notifier, for example:
Reverts the effect of a previous call to gobject.object.ObjectG.freezeNotify. The freeze count is decreased on object and when it reaches zero, queued "notify" signals are emitted.
This function essentially limits the life time of the closure to the life time of the object. That is, when the object is finalized, the closure is invalidated by calling gobject.closure.Closure.invalidate on it, in order to prevent invocations of the closure with a finalized (nonexisting) object. Also, gobject.object.ObjectG.ref_ and gobject.object.ObjectG.unref are added as marshal guards to the closure, to ensure that an extra reference count is held on object during invocation of the closure. Usually, this function will be called on closures that use this object as closure data.
Connect to Notify signal.
The gio.settings_backend.SettingsBackend interface defines a generic interface for non-strictly-typed data that is stored in a hierarchy. To implement an alternative storage backend for gio.settings.Settings, you need to implement the gio.settings_backend.SettingsBackend interface and then make it implement the extension point G_SETTINGS_BACKEND_EXTENSION_POINT_NAME.
The interface defines methods for reading and writing values, a method for determining if writing of certain values will fail (lockdown) and a change notification mechanism.
The semantics of the interface are very precisely defined and implementations must carefully adhere to the expectations of callers that are documented on each of the interface methods.
Some of the gio.settings_backend.SettingsBackend functions accept or return a glib.tree.Tree. These trees always have strings as keys and glib.variant.VariantG as values.
The gio.settings_backend.SettingsBackend API is exported to allow third-party implementations, but does not carry the same stability guarantees as the public GIO API. For this reason, you have to define the C preprocessor symbol G_SETTINGS_ENABLE_BACKEND before including gio/gsettingsbackend.h.
