Description

The atk.Registry is normally used to create appropriate ATK "peers" for user interface components. Application developers usually need only interact with the atk.Registry by associating appropriate ATK implementation classes with gobject.GObject classes via the set_factory_type() method, passing the appropriate GType for application custom widget classes.

Methods

atk.Registry.set_factory_type

    def set_factory_type(type, factory_type)

`type` :	an `atk.Object` type
`factory_type` :	an `atk.ObjectFactory` type to associate with `type`. Must implement the `atk.Object` appropriate for `type`.

Associate an atk.ObjectFactory subclass with a atk.Object type. Note: The associated factory_type will thereafter be responsible for the creation of new atk.Object implementations for instances appropriate for type.

atk.Registry.get_factory_type

    def get_factory_type(type)

`type` :	a `atk.Object` type with which to look up the associated `atk.ObjectFactory` subclass
Returns :	a `atk.ObjectFactory` type associated with `atk.Object` `type`

Returns a atk.ObjectFactory subclass associated with type.

atk.Registry.get_factory

    def get_factory(type)

`type` :	a `atk.Object` with which to look up the associated `atk.ObjectFactory`
Returns :	an `atk.ObjectFactory` appropriate for creating `type` `atk.Object`s.

Gets an atk.ObjectFactory appropriate for creating type atk.Objects.

Functions

atk.get_default_registry

    def atk.get_default_registry()

Returns :

a default implementation of the atk.ObjectFactory type registry

Gets a default implementation of the atk.ObjectFactory type registry. Note: For most toolkit maintainers, this will be the correct registry for registering new atk.Object factories. Following a call to this function, maintainers may call the set_factory_type() method to associate an atk.ObjectFactory subclass with the type of objects for whom accessibility information will be provided.
