Method

GObjectBindingget_target

deprecated: 2.68 since: 2.26

Declaration

GObject*
g_binding_get_target (
  GBinding* binding
)

Description

Retrieves the GObject instance used as the target of the binding.

A GBinding can outlive the target GObject as the binding does not hold a strong reference to the target. If the target is destroyed before the binding then this function will return NULL.

Use g_binding_dup_target() if the target or binding are used from different threads as otherwise the pointer returned from this function might become invalid if the target is finalized from another thread in the meantime.

Available since: 2.26

Deprecated since: 2.68

Use g_binding_dup_target() for a safer version of this function.

Gets propertyGObject.Binding:target

Return value

Type: GObject

The target GObject, or NULL if the target does not exist any more.

The data is owned by the instance.
The return value can be NULL.
