Description

gtk.Object is the base class for all widgets, and for a few non-widget objects such as gtk.Adjustment. gtk.Object predates GObject; non-widgets that derive from gtk.Object rather than GObject do so for backward compatibility reasons.

The "destroy" signal, emitted by the destroy() method asks all code owning a GTK reference to the object to release its GTK reference. So, for example, if you call window.destroy() where window is a gtk.Window, GTK will release the GTK reference count that it owns; if you call button.destroy() where button is a gtk.Button, button will be removed from its parent container and the parent container will release its GTK reference to button. Because these GTK references are released, calling destroy() should result in freeing all memory associated with an object (finalizing it) if the GTK reference count reaches zero. However, in PyGTK the GTK objects are wrapped in a Python object that has its own reference counting mechanism. The destroy() method does not affect the Python reference counts. The GTK object associated with a Python object will not be released until the Python object reference count reaches zero. Therefore, calling the destroy() method will not result in the finalization of the GTK object until the Python object is finalized. In the case mentioned above if a gtk.Button is destroyed using the destroy() method, it will be removed from its container and unmapped and unrealized but it will not be finalized because the Python wrapper object will still exist and hold a reference.

Methods

gtk.Object.flags

    def flags()

Returns :

the flags set for the object

The flags() method returns the value of the flags for the object. The flags returned will include both the gtk.Object flags and the gtk.Widget flags.

The gtk.Object flags are:

gtk.IN_DESTRUCTION

the object is currently being destroyed.

gtk.FLOATING

the object is orphaned.

gtk.RESERVED_1

reserved for future use

gtk.RESERVED_2

reserved for future use

The gtk.Widget flags are:

gtk.TOPLEVEL

widgets without a real parent (e.g. gtk.Window and gtk.Menu) have this flag set throughout their lifetime. Toplevel widgets always contain their own gtk.gdk.Window.

gtk.NO_WINDOW

a widget that does not provide its own gtk.gdk.Window. Visible action (e.g. drawing) is performed on the parent's gtk.gdk.Window.

gtk.REALIZED

the widget has an associated gtk.gdk.Window.

gtk.MAPPED

the widget can be displayed on the screen.

gtk.VISIBLE

the widget will be mapped as soon as its parent is mapped.

gtk.SENSITIVE

The sensitivity of a widget determines whether it will receive certain events (e.g. button or key presses). One requirement for the widget's sensitivity is to have this flag set.

gtk.PARENT_SENSITIVE

This is the second requirement for the widget's sensitivity. Once a widget has gtk.SENSITIVE and gtk.PARENT_SENSITIVE set, its state is effectively sensitive.

gtk.CAN_FOCUS

the widget is able to handle focus grabs.

gtk.HAS_FOCUS

the widget has the focus - assumes that gtk.CAN_FOCUS is set

gtk.CAN_DEFAULT

the widget is allowed to receive the default action.

gtk.HAS_DEFAULT

the widget currently will receive the default action.

gtk.HAS_GRAB

the widget is in the grab_widgets stack, and will be the preferred one for receiving events.

gtk.RC_STYLE

the widgets style has been looked up through the RC mechanism. It does not imply that the widget actually had a style defined through the RC mechanism.

gtk.COMPOSITE_CHILD

the widget is a composite child of its parent.

gtk.NO_REPARENT

unused

gtk.APP_PAINTABLE

set on widgets whose window the application directly draws on, in order to keep GTK from overwriting the drawn stuff.

gtk.RECEIVES_DEFAULT

the widget when focused will receive the default action and have gtk.HAS_DEFAULT set even if there is a different widget set as default.

gtk.DOUBLE_BUFFERED

exposes done on the widget should be double-buffered.

gtk.Object.set_flags

    def set_flags(flags)

flags :

the gtk.Object and gtk.Widget flags to be set on this object

The set_flags() method sets the object flags according to the value of flags. See flags() for a description of the gtk.Object and gtk.Widget flags that can be set.

gtk.Object.unset_flags

    def unset_flags(flags)

flags :

the gtk.Object and gtk.Widget flags to be unset on this object

The unset_flags() method unsets the object flags according to the value of flags. See flags() for a description of the gtk.Object and gtk.Widget flags that can be unset.

gtk.Object.destroy

    def destroy()

The destroy() method emits the "destroy" signal notifying all reference holders that they should release the gtk.Object.

Functions

gtk.bindings_activate

    def gtk.bindings_activate(object, keyval, modifiers)

object :

the gtk.Object to activate the bindings on

keyval :

a key value

modifiers :

a modifier mask

 :

Returns :

True if the binding could be activated

The gtk.bindings_activate() function activates the bindings associated with the gtk.Object specified by object with the key value specified by keyval and the modifier mask specified by modifiers.

gtk.bindings_activate_event

    def gtk.bindings_activate_event(object, event)

object :

the gtk.Object to activate the bindings on

event :

a gtk.gdk.Event

Returns :

True if a matching key binding was found

The gtk.bindings_activate_event() function looks up key bindings for the gtk.Object specified by object to find one matching the key gtk.gdk.Event specified by event, and if one was found, activate it.

gtk.binding_entry_add_signal

    def gtk.binding_entry_add_signal(object, keyval, modifiers, signal_name, ...)

object :

the gtk.Object class the binding entry will be associated with

keyval :

the key value

modifiers :

the modifier mask

signal_name :

the signal name

... :

zero or more pairs of value type-value pairs

The gtk.binding_entry_add_signal() function adds a binding (specified by keyval and modifiers) to the binding set of the object class derived from object. The signal specified by signal_name will be emitted with the optional arguments specified by the argument pairs denoted by ... that are value type and value. This function is used when creating a new widget class to set up key bindings.

gtk.binding_entry_remove

    def gtk.binding_entry_remove(class_type, keyval, modifiers)

class_type :

the gtk.Object class the binding entry will be removed from

keyval :

the key value

modifiers :

the modifier mask

Note

This function is available in PyGTK 2.2 and above.

The gtk.binding_entry_remove() function removes the binding (specified by keyval and modifiers) from the binding set of the object class specified by class_type.

Signals

The "destroy" gtk.Object Signal

    def callback(object, user_param1, ...)

object :

the object that received the signal

user_param1 :

the first user parameter (if any) specified with the connect() method

... :

additional user parameters (if any)

The "destroy" signal is emitted when the references for the object should be destroyed.
