RcStyle.getStyleByPath

Creates up a gtk.Style from styles defined in a RC file by providing the raw components used in matching. This function may be useful when creating pseudo-widgets that should be themed like widgets but don’t actually have corresponding GTK+ widgets. An example of this would be items inside a GNOME canvas widget.

The action of gtk_rc_get_style() is similar to:

gtk_widget_path (widget, NULL, &path, NULL);
gtk_widget_class_path (widget, NULL, &class_path, NULL);
gtk_rc_get_style_by_paths (gtk_widget_get_settings (widget),
path, class_path,
G_OBJECT_TYPE (widget));

Parameters

settings Settings

a gtk.Settings object

widgetPath string

the widget path to use when looking up the style, or NULL if no matching against the widget path should be done

classPath string

the class path to use when looking up the style, or NULL if no matching against the class path should be done.

type GType

a type that will be used along with parent types of this type when matching against class styles, or G_TYPE_NONE

Return Value

Type: Style

A style created by matching with the supplied paths, or NULL if nothing matching was specified and the default style should be used. The returned value is owned by GTK+ as part of an internal cache, so you must call g_object_ref() on the returned value if you want to keep a reference to it.
