EntryBuffer

open class EntryBuffer : GLibObject.Object, EntryBufferProtocol

The GtkEntryBuffer class contains the actual text displayed in a GtkEntry widget.

A single GtkEntryBuffer object can be shared by multiple GtkEntry widgets which will then share the same text content, but not the cursor position, visibility attributes, icon etc.

GtkEntryBuffer may be derived from. Such a derived class might allow text to be stored in an alternate location, such as non-pageable memory, useful in the case of important passwords. Or a derived class could integrate with an application’s concept of undo/redo.

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

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

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

    Declaration

    Swift

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

    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 EntryBuffer instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

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

    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 EntryBuffer instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
override 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 EntryBuffer instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

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

    Parameters

    op

    pointer to the underlying object
