TextBuffer

open class TextBuffer : GLibObject.Object, TextBufferProtocol

You may wish to begin by reading the text widget conceptual overview which gives an overview of all the objects and data types related to the text widget and how they work together.

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

    Declaration

    Swift

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

    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 TextBuffer instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

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

    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 TextBuffer 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 TextBuffer instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
override 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 TextBuffer instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

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

    Parameters

    op

    pointer to the underlying object
