Use GtkUIManager instead.

Creates a new GtkItemFactory.

Beware that the returned object does not have a floating reference.

Parameters

the kind of menu to create; can be GTK_TYPE_MENU_BAR, GTK_TYPE_MENU or GTK_TYPE_OPTION_MENU

 

path

the factory path of the new item factory, a string of the form "<name>"

The recommended API for this purpose are the functions gtk_menu_item_set_accel_path() and gtk_widget_set_accel_path(); don't use gtk_item_factory_add_foreign() in new code, since it is likely to be removed in the future.

Installs an accelerator for accel_widget in accel_group , that causes the ::activate signal to be emitted if the accelerator is activated.

This function can be used to make widgets participate in the accel saving/restoring functionality provided by gtk_accel_map_save() and gtk_accel_map_load(), even if they haven't been created by an item factory.

Parameters
