IOModule

Provides an interface and default functions for loading and unloading modules. This is used internally to make GIO extensible, but can also be used by others to implement module loading.

class IOModule : TypeModule {

protected

GIOModule* gIOModule;

GIOModule* getIOModuleStruct(bool transferOwnership);

void* getStruct();

this(GIOModule* gIOModule, bool ownedRef);

static GType getType();

this(string filename);

static ListG loadAllInDirectory(string dirname);

static ListG loadAllInDirectoryWithScope(string dirname, IOModuleScope scope_);

static void scanAllInDirectory(string dirname);

static void scanAllInDirectoryWithScope(string dirname, IOModuleScope scope_);

}

Constructors

this this(GIOModule* gIOModule, bool ownedRef): Sets our main struct and passes it to the parent class.
this this(string filename): Creates a new GIOModule that will load the specific shared library when in use.

Members

Functions

getIOModuleStruct GIOModule* getIOModuleStruct(bool transferOwnership): Get the main Gtk struct
getStruct void* getStruct(): the main Gtk struct as a void*

Static functions

getType GType getType()
loadAllInDirectory ListG loadAllInDirectory(string dirname): Loads all the modules in the specified directory.
loadAllInDirectoryWithScope ListG loadAllInDirectoryWithScope(string dirname, IOModuleScope scope_): Loads all the modules in the specified directory.
scanAllInDirectory void scanAllInDirectory(string dirname): Scans all the modules in the specified directory, ensuring that any extension point implemented by a module is registered.
scanAllInDirectoryWithScope void scanAllInDirectoryWithScope(string dirname, IOModuleScope scope_): Scans all the modules in the specified directory, ensuring that any extension point implemented by a module is registered.

Variables

gIOModule GIOModule* gIOModule;: the main Gtk struct

Inherited Members

From TypeModule

gTypeModule GTypeModule* gTypeModule;: the main Gtk struct
getTypeModuleStruct GTypeModule* getTypeModuleStruct(bool transferOwnership): Get the main Gtk struct
getStruct void* getStruct(): the main Gtk struct as a void*
getType GType getType()
addInterface void addInterface(GType instanceType, GType interfaceType, GInterfaceInfo* interfaceInfo): Registers an additional interface for a type, whose interface lives in the given type plugin. If the interface was already registered for the type in this plugin, nothing will be done.
registerEnum GType registerEnum(string name, GEnumValue* constStaticValues): Looks up or registers an enumeration that is implemented with a particular type plugin. If a type with name type_name was previously registered, the GType identifier for the type is returned, otherwise the type is newly registered, and the resulting GType identifier returned.
registerFlags GType registerFlags(string name, GFlagsValue* constStaticValues): Looks up or registers a flags type that is implemented with a particular type plugin. If a type with name type_name was previously registered, the GType identifier for the type is returned, otherwise the type is newly registered, and the resulting GType identifier returned.
registerType GType registerType(GType parentType, string typeName, GTypeInfo* typeInfo, GTypeFlags flags): Looks up or registers a type that is implemented with a particular type plugin. If a type with name type_name was previously registered, the GType identifier for the type is returned, otherwise the type is newly registered, and the resulting GType identifier returned.
setName void setName(string name): Sets the name for a gobject.TypeModule
unuse void unuse(): Decreases the use count of a gobject.TypeModule by one. If the result is zero, the module will be unloaded. (However, the gobject.TypeModule will not be freed, and types associated with the gobject.TypeModule are not unregistered. Once a gobject.TypeModule is initialized, it must exist forever.)
use bool use(): Increases the use count of a gobject.TypeModule by one. If the use count was zero before, the plugin will be loaded. If loading the plugin fails, the use count is reset to its prior value.
