Description

GnomeMDIGenericChild is a subclass of GnomeMDIChild that allows for defining of GnomeMDIChild's virtual functions on a per-instance rather than on per-class basis. Thus the programmer does not have to subclass GnomeMDIChild but can use GnomeMDIGenericChild class directly.

Only the view creating function is mandatory. It has to be set with gnome_mdi_generic_child_set_view_creator() or gnome_mdi_generic_child_set_view_creator_full(). A simple default implementation of notebook label creation is provided by GnomeMDIChild class. The other two functions are optional.

struct GnomeMDIGenericChild;


gnome_mdi_generic_child_new ()

GnomeMDIGenericChild* gnome_mdi_generic_child_new
                                            (gchar *name);

Creates a new mdi child, which has the ability to set view creators, etc on an instance basis (rather than on a class basis like &GnomeMDIChild).

After creation, you will need to set, at a minimum, the view creator function.

name : the name of this MDI child.
Returns : A newly created &GnomeMDIGenericChild object.


gnome_mdi_generic_child_set_view_creator ()

void        gnome_mdi_generic_child_set_view_creator
                                            (GnomeMDIGenericChild *child,
                                             GnomeMDIChildViewCreator func,
                                             gpointer data);

This function sets the function that is used to create new views for this particular mdi child object. The function should return a newly created widget (the view).

A &GnomeMDIGenericChild must have a view creator.

child : the mdi child object
func : a function used to create views
data : optional user data.


gnome_mdi_generic_child_set_view_creator_full ()

void        gnome_mdi_generic_child_set_view_creator_full
                                            (GnomeMDIGenericChild *child,
                                             GnomeMDIChildViewCreator func,
                                             GtkCallbackMarshal marshal,
                                             gpointer data,
                                             GtkDestroyNotify notify);

Similar to gnome_mdi_generic_child_set_view_creator(), except that it gives more control to the programmer. If marshal is not NULL, then it will be called instead of func.

The &GtkArg array passed to marshal will be of length 2. The first element will be child, and the second is the return value (a pointer to a &GtkWidget).

child : the mdi child object
func : a function to create views (not used if marshal != NULL)
marshal : a callback marshaller
data : optional user data
notify : a function used to free the user data.


gnome_mdi_generic_child_set_menu_creator ()

void        gnome_mdi_generic_child_set_menu_creator
                                            (GnomeMDIGenericChild *child,
                                             GnomeMDIChildMenuCreator func,
                                             gpointer data);

Sets the function used to create child specific menus. The function should return a &GList of the menus created.

A &GnomeMDIGenericChild doesn't require a menu creator.

child : the mdi child object
func : a function to create a list of child specific menus
data : optional user data


gnome_mdi_generic_child_set_menu_creator_full ()

void        gnome_mdi_generic_child_set_menu_creator_full
                                            (GnomeMDIGenericChild *child,
                                             GnomeMDIChildMenuCreator func,
                                             GtkCallbackMarshal marshal,
                                             gpointer data,
                                             GtkDestroyNotify notify);

This function is similar to gnome_mdi_generic_child_set_menu_creator(), but gives extra flexibility to the programmer, in the form of a a destroy notify for the user data, and a callback marshaller.

The &GtkArg array passed to marshal is of length 3. The first element will be child, the second will be a view of child, and the third is the return value (a pointer to the returned GList).

child : the mdi child object
func : a menu creator function (not used if marshal != NULL)
marshal : a callback marshaller
data : optional user data
notify : a destroy notify for the data


gnome_mdi_generic_child_set_config_func ()

void        gnome_mdi_generic_child_set_config_func
                                            (GnomeMDIGenericChild *child,
                                             GnomeMDIChildConfigFunc func,
                                             gpointer data);

Sets the function used to get the config key used for session saves.

A &GnomeMDIGenericChild doesn't require a config func.

child : the mdi child object
func : a function to set the config key for session saves
data : optional user data


gnome_mdi_generic_child_set_config_func_full ()

void        gnome_mdi_generic_child_set_config_func_full
                                            (GnomeMDIGenericChild *child,
                                             GnomeMDIChildConfigFunc func,
                                             GtkCallbackMarshal marshal,
                                             gpointer data,
                                             GtkDestroyNotify notify);

A function similar to gnome_mdi_generic_child_set_config_func(), except it gives more control to the programmer.

The &GtkArg array passed to marshal is of length 2. The first element is child, and the second is the return value (a pointer to a string).

child : the mdi child object
func : a function (not used if marshal != NULL)
marshal : a callback marshaller
data : optional user data
notify : a destroy notify for the user data


gnome_mdi_generic_child_set_label_func ()

void        gnome_mdi_generic_child_set_label_func
                                            (GnomeMDIGenericChild *child,
                                             GnomeMDIChildLabelFunc func,
                                             gpointer data);

Sets the function used to set (or modify) the label for child. The first argument to func is child. If a label exists, it will be passed to func as the second argument, otherwise, NULL is passed. The function should return the modified label.

A &GnomeMDIGenericChild doesn't require a label function.

child : a mdi child object
func : a function
data : optional user data


gnome_mdi_generic_child_set_label_func_full ()

void        gnome_mdi_generic_child_set_label_func_full
                                            (GnomeMDIGenericChild *child,
                                             GnomeMDIChildLabelFunc func,
                                             GtkCallbackMarshal marshal,
                                             gpointer data,
                                             GtkDestroyNotify notify);

Similar to gnome_mdi_generic_child_set_label_func(), except it gives more flexibility to the programmer.

The &GtkArg array passed to marshal is of length 3. The first argument is child, the second is the old widget (or NULL), and the third is the return value (a pointer to a &GtkWidget).

child : the mdi child object
func : a function (not used if marshal != NULL)
marshal : a callback marshaller
data : optional user data
notify : a destroy notify for the data
