Table

open class Table : TableProtocol

AtkTable should be implemented by components which present elements ordered via rows and columns. It may also be used to present tree-structured information if the nodes of the trees can be said to contain multiple “columns”. Individual elements of an AtkTable are typically referred to as “cells”. Those cells should implement the interface AtkTableCell, but Atk doesn’t require them to be direct children of the current AtkTable. They can be grand-children, grand-grand-children etc. AtkTable provides the API needed to get a individual cell based on the row and column numbers.

Children of AtkTable are frequently “lightweight” objects, that is, they may not have backing widgets in the host UI toolkit. They are therefore often transient.

Since tables are often very complex, AtkTable includes provision for offering simplified summary information, as well as row and column headers and captions. Headers and captions are AtkObjects which may implement other interfaces (AtkText, AtkImage, etc.) as appropriate. AtkTable summaries may themselves be (simplified) AtkTables, etc.

Note for implementors: in the past, AtkTable required that all the cells should be direct children of AtkTable, and provided some index based methods to request the cells. The practice showed that that forcing made AtkTable implementation complex, and hard to expose other kind of children, like rows or captions. Right now, index-based methods are deprecated.

The Table type acts as an owner of an underlying AtkTable instance. It provides the methods that can operate on this data type through TableProtocol conformance. Use Table as a strong reference or owner of a AtkTable instance.

  • ptr 
    Untyped pointer to the underlying `AtkTable` instance.

    For type-safe access, use the generated, typed pointer table_ptr property instead.

  • Designated initialiser from the underlying C data type. This creates an instance without performing an unbalanced retain i.e., ownership is transferred to the Table instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
public init(_ op: UnsafeMutablePointer<AtkTable>)

    Parameters

    op

    pointer to the underlying object
    Show on GitHub

  • Designated initialiser from a constant pointer to the underlying C data type. This creates an instance without performing an unbalanced retain i.e., ownership is transferred to the Table instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
public init(_ op: UnsafePointer<AtkTable>)

    Parameters

    op

    pointer to the underlying object

  • Optional initialiser from a non-mutating gpointer to the underlying C data type. This creates an instance without performing an unbalanced retain i.e., ownership is transferred to the Table instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
public init!(gpointer op: gpointer?)

    Parameters

    op

    gpointer to the underlying object
    Show on GitHub

  • Optional initialiser from a non-mutating gconstpointer to the underlying C data type. This creates an instance without performing an unbalanced retain i.e., ownership is transferred to the Table instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
public init!(gconstpointer op: gconstpointer?)

    Parameters

    op

    pointer to the underlying object

  • Optional initialiser from a constant pointer to the underlying C data type. This creates an instance without performing an unbalanced retain i.e., ownership is transferred to the Table instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
public init!(_ op: UnsafePointer<AtkTable>?)

    Parameters

    op

    pointer to the underlying object

  • Optional initialiser from the underlying C data type. This creates an instance without performing an unbalanced retain i.e., ownership is transferred to the Table instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
public init!(_ op: UnsafeMutablePointer<AtkTable>?)

    Parameters

    op

    pointer to the underlying object
    Show on GitHub

  • Designated initialiser from the underlying C data type. AtkTable does not allow reference counting, so despite the name no actual retaining will occur. i.e., ownership is transferred to the Table instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
public init(retaining op: UnsafeMutablePointer<AtkTable>)

    Parameters

    op

    pointer to the underlying object
    Show on GitHub

  • Reference intialiser for a related type that implements TableProtocol AtkTable does not allow reference counting.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
public init<T>(_ other: T) where T : TableProtocol

    Parameters

    other

    an instance of a related type that implements TableProtocol
