Description

The event structs contain data specific to each type of event in GDK.

A common mistake is to forget to set the event mask of a widget so that the required events are received. See gtk_widget_set_events().

Functions

Types and Values

union GdkEvent

The GdkEvent struct contains a union of all of the event structs, and allows access to the data fields in a number of ways.

The event type is always the first field in all of the event structs, and can always be accessed with the following code, no matter what type of event it is:

1
2
3

GdkEvent *event;
GdkEventType type;
type = event->type;

To access other fields of the event structs, the pointer to the event can be cast to the appropriate event struct pointer, or the union member name can be used. For example if the event type is GDK_BUTTON_PRESS then the x coordinate of the button press can be accessed with:

1
2
3

GdkEvent *event;
gdouble x;
x = ((GdkEventButton*)event)->x;

or:

1
2
3

GdkEvent *event;
gdouble x;
x = event->button.x;

struct GdkEventAny

struct GdkEventAny {
  GdkEventType type;
  GdkWindow *window;
  gint8 send_event;
};

Contains the fields which are common to all event structs. Any event pointer can safely be cast to a pointer to a GdkEventAny to access these fields.

Members

GdkEventType `type`;	the type of the event.
GdkWindow *`window`;	the window which received the event.
gint8 `send_event`;	`TRUE` if the event was sent explicitly (e.g. using `XSendEvent`).

struct GdkEventKey

struct GdkEventKey {
  GdkEventType type;
  GdkWindow *window;
  gint8 send_event;
  guint32 time;
  guint state;
  guint keyval;
  gint length;
  gchar *string;
  guint16 hardware_keycode;
  guint8 group;
  guint is_modifier : 1;
};

Describes a key press or key release event.

Members

GdkEventType `type`;	the type of the event (`GDK_KEY_PRESS` or `GDK_KEY_RELEASE`).
GdkWindow *`window`;	the window which received the event.
gint8 `send_event`;	`TRUE` if the event was sent explicitly (e.g. using `XSendEvent`).
guint32 `time`;	the time of the event in milliseconds.
guint `state`;	a bit-mask representing the state of the modifier keys (e.g. Control, Shift and Alt) and the pointer buttons. See GdkModifierType.
guint `keyval`;	the key that was pressed or released. See the `<gdk/gdkkeysyms.h>` header file for a complete list of GDK key codes.
gint `length`;	the length of `string` .
gchar *`string`;	a string containing the an approximation of the text that would result from this keypress. The only correct way to handle text input of text is using input methods (see GtkIMContext), so this field is deprecated and should never be used. (`gdk_unicode_to_keyval()` provides a non-deprecated way of getting an approximate translation for a key.) The string is encoded in the encoding of the current locale (Note: this for backwards compatibility: strings in GTK+ and GDK are typically in UTF-8.) and NUL-terminated. In some cases, the translation of the key code will be a single NUL byte, in which case looking at `length` is necessary to distinguish it from the an empty translation.
guint16 `hardware_keycode`;	the raw code of the key that was pressed or released.
guint8 `group`;	the keyboard group.
guint `is_modifier` : 1;	a flag that indicates if `hardware_keycode` is mapped to a modifier. Since 2.10

struct GdkEventButton

struct GdkEventButton {
  GdkEventType type;
  GdkWindow *window;
  gint8 send_event;
  guint32 time;
  gdouble x;
  gdouble y;
  gdouble *axes;
  guint state;
  guint button;
  GdkDevice *device;
  gdouble x_root, y_root;
};

Used for button press and button release events. The type field will be one of GDK_BUTTON_PRESS, GDK_2BUTTON_PRESS, GDK_3BUTTON_PRESS, and GDK_BUTTON_RELEASE.

Double and triple-clicks result in a sequence of events being received. For double-clicks the order of events will be:

Note that the first click is received just like a normal button press, while the second click results in a GDK_2BUTTON_PRESS being received just after the GDK_BUTTON_PRESS.

Triple-clicks are very similar to double-clicks, except that GDK_3BUTTON_PRESS is inserted after the third click. The order of the events is:

For a double click to occur, the second button press must occur within 1/4 of a second of the first. For a triple click to occur, the third button press must also occur within 1/2 second of the first button press.

Generated when a pointer or keyboard grab is broken. On X11, this happens when the grab window becomes unviewable (i.e. it or one of its ancestors is unmapped), or if the same application grabs the pointer or keyboard again.
