FilterRef

public struct FilterRef : FilterProtocol, GWeakCapturing

A GtkFilter object describes the filtering to be performed by a GtkFilterListModel.

The model will use the filter to determine if it should include items or not by calling [methodGtk.Filter.match] for each item and only keeping the ones that the function returns true for.

Filters may change what items they match through their lifetime. In that case, they will emit the [signalGtk.Filter::changed] signal to notify that previous filter results are no longer valid and that items should be checked again via [methodGtk.Filter.match].

GTK provides various pre-made filter implementations for common filtering operations. These filters often include properties that can be linked to various widgets to easily allow searches.

However, in particular for large lists or complex search methods, it is also possible to subclass GtkFilter and provide one’s own filter.

The FilterRef type acts as a lightweight Swift reference to an underlying GtkFilter instance. It exposes methods that can operate on this data type through FilterProtocol conformance. Use FilterRef only as an unowned reference to an existing GtkFilter instance.

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

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

    Declaration

    Swift

    public let ptr: UnsafeMutableRawPointer!
