Event

open class Event : EventProtocol

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

GdkEvents are immutable data structures, created by GDK to represent windowing system events.

In GTK applications the events are handled automatically by toplevel widgets and passed on to the event controllers of appropriate widgets, so using GdkEvent and its related API is rarely needed.

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

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

    Declaration

    Swift

    public let ptr: UnsafeMutableRawPointer!

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

    Declaration

    Swift

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

    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 Event instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

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

    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 Event instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

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

    Parameters

    op

    gpointer to the underlying object

  • 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 Event instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

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

    Parameters

    op

    pointer to the underlying object

    Parameters

    other

    an instance of a related type that implements EventProtocol
