Method

GObjectObjectconnect

Declaration 

GObject*
g_object_connect (
  GObject* object,
  const gchar* signal_spec,
  ...
)

Description

A convenience function to connect multiple signals at once.

The signal specs expected by this function have the form modifier::signal_name, where modifier can be one of the following:

  • signal: equivalent to g_signal_connect_data (..., NULL, G_CONNECT_DEFAULT)
  • object-signal, object_signal: equivalent to g_signal_connect_object (..., G_CONNECT_DEFAULT)
  • swapped-signal, swapped_signal: equivalent to g_signal_connect_data (..., NULL, G_CONNECT_SWAPPED)
  • swapped_object_signal, swapped-object-signal: equivalent to g_signal_connect_object (..., G_CONNECT_SWAPPED)
  • signal_after, signal-after: equivalent to g_signal_connect_data (..., NULL, G_CONNECT_AFTER)
  • object_signal_after, object-signal-after: equivalent to g_signal_connect_object (..., G_CONNECT_AFTER)
  • swapped_signal_after, swapped-signal-after: equivalent to g_signal_connect_data (..., NULL, G_CONNECT_SWAPPED | G_CONNECT_AFTER)
  • swapped_object_signal_after, swapped-object-signal-after: equivalent to g_signal_connect_object (..., G_CONNECT_SWAPPED | G_CONNECT_AFTER)
menu->toplevel = g_object_connect (g_object_new (GTK_TYPE_WINDOW,
                                                 "type", GTK_WINDOW_POPUP,
                                                 "child", menu,
                                                 NULL),
                                   "signal::event", gtk_menu_window_event, menu,
                                   "signal::size_request", gtk_menu_window_size_request, menu,
                                   "signal::destroy", gtk_widget_destroyed, &menu->toplevel,
                                   NULL);
