Texture

open class Texture : GLibObject.Object, TextureProtocol

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

GdkTexture is the basic element used to refer to pixel data.

It is primarily meant for pixel data that will not change over multiple frames, and will be used for a long time.

There are various ways to create GdkTexture objects from a GdkPixbuf, or a Cairo surface, or other pixel data.

The ownership of the pixel data is transferred to the GdkTexture instance; you can only make a copy of it, via [methodGdk.Texture.download].

GdkTexture is an immutable object: That means you cannot change anything about it other than increasing the reference count via g_object_ref().

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

    Declaration

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

    Parameters

    op

    pointer to the underlying object

  • Creates a new texture by loading an image from a file.

    The file format is detected automatically. The supported formats are PNG and JPEG, though more formats might be available.

    If nil is returned, then error will be set.

  • Creates a new texture by loading an image from a resource.

    The file format is detected automatically. The supported formats are PNG and JPEG, though more formats might be available.

    It is a fatal error if resource_path does not specify a valid image resource and the program will abort if that happens. If you are unsure about the validity of a resource, use [ctorGdk.Texture.new_from_file] to load it.
