Declaration [src]

void
gtk_widget_class_bind_template_child_full (
  GtkWidgetClass* widget_class,
  const gchar* name,
  gboolean internal_child,
  gssize struct_offset
)

Description [src]

Automatically assign an object declared in the class template XML to be set to a location on a freshly built instance’s private data, or alternatively accessible via gtk_widget_get_template_child().

The struct can point either into the public instance, then you should use G_STRUCT_OFFSET(WidgetType, member) for struct_offset, or in the private struct, then you should use G_PRIVATE_OFFSET(WidgetType, member).

An explicit strong reference will be held automatically for the duration of your instance’s life cycle, it will be released automatically when GObjectClass.dispose() runs on your instance and if a struct_offset that is != 0 is specified, then the automatic location in your instance public or private data will be set to NULL. You can however access an automated child pointer the first time your classes GObjectClass.dispose() runs, or alternatively in GtkWidgetClass.destroy().

If internal_child is specified, GtkBuildableIface.get_internal_child() will be automatically implemented by the GtkWidget class so there is no need to implement it manually.

The wrapper macros gtk_widget_class_bind_template_child(), gtk_widget_class_bind_template_child_internal(), gtk_widget_class_bind_template_child_private() and gtk_widget_class_bind_template_child_internal_private() might be more convenient to use.

Note that this must be called from a composite widget classes class initializer after calling gtk_widget_class_set_template().

Parameters

name

Type: const gchar*

The “id” of the child defined in the template XML.

The data is owned by the caller of the method.

The value is a NUL terminated UTF-8 string.

internal_child

Type: gboolean

Whether the child should be accessible as an “internal-child” when this class is used in GtkBuilder XML.

struct_offset

Type: gssize

The structure offset into the composite widget’s instance public or private structure where the automated child pointer should be set, or 0 to not assign the pointer.
