Declaration [src] 

gboolean
gtk_text_buffer_deserialize (
  GtkTextBuffer* register_buffer,

  gsize length,
  GError** error
)

Description [src]

This function deserializes rich text in format format and inserts it at iter.

formats to be used must be registered using gtk_text_buffer_register_deserialize_format() or gtk_text_buffer_register_deserialize_tagset() beforehand.

Available since: 2.10

Parameters

content_buffer

Type: GtkTextBuffer

The GtkTextBuffer to deserialize into.

The data is owned by the caller of the method.
format

Type: GdkAtom

The rich text format to use for deserializing.

iter

Type: GtkTextIter

Insertion point for the deserialized text.

The data is owned by the caller of the method.
data

Type: An array of guint8

Data to deserialize.

The length of the array is specified in the length argument.
The data is owned by the caller of the method.
length

Type: gsize

Length of data.

error

Type: GError **

The return location for a recoverable error.

The argument can be NULL.
If the return location is not NULL, then you must initialize it to a NULL GError*.
The argument will be left initialized to NULL by the method if there are no errors.
In case of error, the argument will be set to a newly allocated GError; the caller will take ownership of the data, and be responsible for freeing it.
