Editable

open class Editable : EditableProtocol

The GtkEditable interface is an interface which should be implemented by text editing widgets, such as GtkEntry and GtkSpinButton. It contains functions for generically manipulating an editable widget, a large number of action signals used for key bindings, and several signals that an application can connect to to modify the behavior of a widget.

As an example of the latter usage, by connecting the following handler to GtkEditable::insert-text, an application can convert all entry into a widget into uppercase.

Forcing entry to uppercase.

(C Language Example):

#include <ctype.h>;

void
insert_text_handler (GtkEditable *editable,
                     const gchar *text,
                     gint         length,
                     gint        *position,
                     gpointer     data)
{
  gchar *result = g_utf8_strup (text, length);

  g_signal_handlers_block_by_func (editable,
                               (gpointer) insert_text_handler, data);
  gtk_editable_insert_text (editable, result, length, position);
  g_signal_handlers_unblock_by_func (editable,
                                     (gpointer) insert_text_handler, data);

  g_signal_stop_emission_by_name (editable, "insert_text");

  g_free (result);
}

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

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

    For type-safe access, use the generated, typed pointer editable_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 Editable instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

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

    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 Editable instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

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

    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 Editable 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 Editable instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

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

    Parameters

    op

    pointer to the underlying object
    Show on GitHub

  • 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 Editable instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

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

    Parameters

    op

    pointer to the underlying object
    Show on GitHub

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

    Declaration

    Swift

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

    Parameters

    op

    pointer to the underlying object
    Show on GitHub

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

    Declaration

    Swift

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

    Parameters

    op

    pointer to the underlying object
    Show on GitHub

  • Reference intialiser for a related type that implements EditableProtocol GtkEditable does not allow reference counting.

    Declaration

    Swift

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

    Parameters

    other

    an instance of a related type that implements EditableProtocol

    Parameters

    cPointer
