gtk_tree_row_reference_new (GtkTreeModel *model,
                            GtkTreePath *path);

Creates a row reference based on path . This reference will keep pointing to the node pointed to by path , so long as it exists. It listens to all signals emitted by model , and updates its path appropriately. If path isn't a valid path in model , then NULL is returned.

Parameters

model

A GtkTreeModel

 

path

A valid GtkTreePath to monitor

 

Returns

A newly allocated GtkTreeRowReference, or NULL


gtk_tree_row_reference_new_proxy ()

GtkTreeRowReference *
gtk_tree_row_reference_new_proxy (GObject *proxy,
                                  GtkTreeModel *model,
                                  GtkTreePath *path);

You do not need to use this function. Creates a row reference based on path . This reference will keep pointing to the node pointed to by path , so long as it exists. If path isn't a valid path in model , then NULL is returned. However, unlike references created with gtk_tree_row_reference_new(), it does not listen to the model for changes. The creator of the row reference must do this explicitly using gtk_tree_row_reference_inserted(), gtk_tree_row_reference_deleted(), gtk_tree_row_reference_reordered().

These functions must be called exactly once per proxy when the corresponding signal on the model is emitted. This single call updates all row references for that proxy. Since built-in GTK+ objects like GtkTreeView already use this mechanism internally, using them as the proxy object will produce unpredictable results. Further more, passing the same object as model and proxy doesn't work for reasons of internal implementation.

This type of row reference is primarily meant by structures that need to carefully monitor exactly when a row reference updates itself, and is not generally needed by most applications.

Parameters

proxy

A proxy GObject

 

model

A GtkTreeModel

 

path

A valid GtkTreePath to monitor

 

Returns

A newly allocated GtkTreeRowReference, or NULL

void
gtk_tree_model_ref_node (GtkTreeModel *tree_model,

Lets the tree ref the node. This is an optional method for models to implement. To be more specific, models may ignore this call as it exists primarily for performance reasons.

This function is primarily meant as a way for views to let caching model know when nodes are being displayed (and hence, whether or not to cache that node.) For example, a file-system based model would not want to keep the entire file-hierarchy in memory, just the sections that are currently being displayed by every current view.

A model should be expected to be able to get an iter independent of its reffed state.

Parameters

tree_model

A GtkTreeModel.

 

iter

The GtkTreeIter.

 

gtk_tree_model_unref_node ()

void
gtk_tree_model_unref_node (GtkTreeModel *tree_model,
                           GtkTreeIter *iter);

Lets the tree unref the node. This is an optional method for models to implement. To be more specific, models may ignore this call as it exists primarily for performance reasons.

For more information on what this means, see gtk_tree_model_ref_node(). Please note that nodes that are deleted are not unreffed.

Parameters

tree_model

A GtkTreeModel.

 

iter

The GtkTreeIter.

 

gtk_tree_model_get ()

void
gtk_tree_model_get (GtkTreeModel *tree_model,
                    GtkTreeIter *iter,
                    ...);

Gets the value of one or more cells in the row referenced by iter . The variable argument list should contain integer column numbers, each column number followed by a place to store the value being retrieved. The list is terminated by a -1. For example, to get a value from column 0 with type G_TYPE_STRING, you would write: gtk_tree_model_get (model, iter, 0, &place_string_here, -1), where place_string_here is a gchar* to be filled with the string.

Returned values with type G_TYPE_OBJECT have to be unreferenced, values with type G_TYPE_STRING or G_TYPE_BOXED have to be freed. Other values are passed by value.

Parameters

tree_model

a GtkTreeModel

 

iter

a row in tree_model

 

Varargs

pairs of column number and value return locations, terminated by -1

 

gtk_tree_model_get_valist ()

void
gtk_tree_model_get_valist (GtkTreeModel *tree_model,
                           GtkTreeIter *iter,
                           va_list var_args);

See gtk_tree_model_get(), this version takes a va_list for language bindings to use.

Parameters

tree_model

a GtkTreeModel

 

iter

a row in tree_model

 

var_args

va_list of column/return location pairs  

gtk_tree_model_foreach ()

void
gtk_tree_model_foreach (GtkTreeModel *model,
                        GtkTreeModelForeachFunc func,
                        gpointer user_data);

Calls func on each node in model in a depth-first fashion. If func returns TRUE, then the tree ceases to be walked, and gtk_tree_model_foreach() returns.

Parameters

model

A GtkTreeModel

 

func

A function to be called on each row.

[scope call]

user_data

User data to passed to func.

Signal Details

The “row-changed” signal

void
user_function (GtkTreeModel *tree_model,
               GtkTreePath  *path,
               GtkTreeIter  *iter,
               gpointer      user_data)

This signal is emitted when a row in the model has changed.

Parameters

tree_model

the GtkTreeModel on which the signal is emitted

 

path

a GtkTreePath identifying the changed row

 

iter

a valid GtkTreeIter pointing to the changed row

 

user_data

user data set when the signal handler was connected.

 

Flags: Run Last


The “row-deleted” signal

void
user_function (GtkTreeModel *tree_model,
               GtkTreePath  *path,
               gpointer      user_data)

This signal is emitted when a row has been deleted.

Note that no iterator is passed to the signal handler, since the row is already deleted.

This should be called by models after a row has been removed. The location pointed to by path should be the location that the row previously was at. It may not be a valid location anymore.

Parameters

tree_model

the GtkTreeModel on which the signal is emitted

 

path

a GtkTreePath identifying the row

 

user_data

user data set when the signal handler was connected.

 

Flags: Run First


The “row-has-child-toggled” signal

void
user_function (GtkTreeModel *tree_model,
               GtkTreePath  *path,
               GtkTreeIter  *iter,
               gpointer      user_data)

This signal is emitted when a row has gotten the first child row or lost its last child row.

Parameters

tree_model

the GtkTreeModel on which the signal is emitted

 

path

a GtkTreePath identifying the row

 

iter

a valid GtkTreeIter pointing to the row

 

user_data

user data set when the signal handler was connected.

 

Flags: Run Last


The “row-inserted” signal

void
user_function (GtkTreeModel *tree_model,
               GtkTreePath  *path,
               GtkTreeIter  *iter,
               gpointer      user_data)

This signal is emitted when a new row has been inserted in the model.

Note that the row may still be empty at this point, since it is a common pattern to first insert an empty row, and then fill it with the desired values.

Parameters

tree_model

the GtkTreeModel on which the signal is emitted

 

path

a GtkTreePath identifying the new row

 

iter

a valid GtkTreeIter pointing to the new row

 

user_data

user data set when the signal handler was connected.

 

Flags: Run First


The “rows-reordered” signal

void
user_function (GtkTreeModel *tree_model,
               GtkTreePath  *path,
               GtkTreeIter  *iter,
               gpointer      new_order,
               gpointer      user_data)

This signal is emitted when the children of a node in the GtkTreeModel have been reordered.

Note that this signal is not emitted when rows are reordered by DND, since this is implemented by removing and then reinserting the row.

Parameters

tree_model

the GtkTreeModel on which the signal is emitted

 

path

a GtkTreePath identifying the tree node whose children have been reordered

 

iter

a valid GtkTreeIter pointing to the node whose

 

new_order

an array of integers mapping the current position of each child to its old position before the re-ordering, i.e. new_order [newpos] = oldpos.

 

user_data

user data set when the signal handler was connected.
