DrawingContext

open class DrawingContext : GLibObject.Object, DrawingContextProtocol

The DrawingContext type acts as a reference-counted owner of an underlying GdkDrawingContext instance. It provides the methods that can operate on this data type through DrawingContextProtocol conformance. Use DrawingContext as a strong reference or owner of a GdkDrawingContext instance.

GdkDrawingContext is an object that represents the current drawing state of a GdkWindow.

It’s possible to use a GdkDrawingContext to draw on a GdkWindow via rendering API like Cairo or OpenGL.

A GdkDrawingContext can only be created by calling gdk_window_begin_draw_frame() and will be valid until a call to gdk_window_end_draw_frame().

GdkDrawingContext is available since GDK 3.22

  • Designated initialiser from the underlying `C` data type.

    This creates an instance without performing an unbalanced retain i.e., ownership is transferred to the DrawingContext instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

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

    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 DrawingContext instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

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

    Parameters

    op

    pointer to the underlying object
    Show on GitHub

  • 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 DrawingContext instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
override 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 DrawingContext instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

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

    Parameters

    op

    pointer to the underlying object

    Parameters

    op

  • Reference intialiser for a related type that implements DrawingContextProtocol Will retain GdkDrawingContext.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
public init<T>(drawingContext other: T) where T : DrawingContextProtocol

    Parameters

    other

    an instance of a related type that implements DrawingContextProtocol
