Description

This package provides an implementation for hooks used in Gtk.Type_Conversion. These hooks should be used when you import a new C GObject, so that GtkAda can recreate the Ada structure from the underlying C structure. Note that when you create a GObject directly in Ada, you do not need to provide any hook.

Implementation note: This is a separate package from Gtk.Type_Conversion so that adding a hook does not necessarily mean the user has to 'with' Gtk.Type_Conversion, and thus all the packages from GtkAda.

Note that this package is not thread safe. You should call the function Add_Hook from the elaboration part of your packages.

Types

  • type File_Conversion_Hook_Type is access function (Type_Name : String) return Glib.Object.GObject;
    This variable can be point to one of your functions. It gets the name of a C widget (ex/ "GtkButton") and should return a newly allocated Ada widget.
  • type Hook_List is record Func : File_Conversion_Hook_Type;
  • type Hook_List_Access is access Hook_List;
  • type which is not one of -- the standard types. function Conversion_Hooks return Hook_List_Access;
    Return the head of the hook list.

Subprograms

  • procedure Add_Hook (Func : File_Conversion_Hook_Type);
    Add a new function to the list of hooks for file conversions. All the hooks are called when GtkAda finds a type which is not one of the standard types.
  • function Conversion_Hooks return Hook_List_Access;
    Return the head of the hook list.
