g_tree_search (
  GTree* tree,

Description

Searches a GTree using search_func.

The search_func is called with a pointer to the key of a key/value pair in the tree, and the passed in user_data. If search_func returns 0 for a key/value pair, then the corresponding value is returned as the result of g_tree_search().
