Method

GtkTextBufferinsert

Declaration [src]

void
gtk_text_buffer_insert (
  GtkTextBuffer* buffer,
  GtkTextIter* iter,
  const char* text,
  int len
)

Description [src]

Inserts len bytes of text at position iter.

If len is -1, text must be nul-terminated and will be inserted in its entirety. Emits the “insert-text” signal; insertion actually occurs in the default handler for the signal. iter is invalidated when insertion occurs (because the buffer contents change), but the default signal handler revalidates it to point to the end of the inserted text.

text

Type: const char*

Text in UTF-8 format.

The data is owned by the caller of the method.
The value is a NUL terminated UTF-8 string.
len

Type: int

Length of text in bytes, or -1.
