Struct gio::Icon[][src]

pub struct Icon(_);
Expand description

Icon is a very minimal interface for icons. It provides functions for checking the equality of two icons, hashing of icons and serializing an icon to and from strings.

Icon does not provide the actual pixmap for the icon as this is out of GIO’s scope, however implementations of Icon may contain the name of an icon (see ThemedIcon), or the path to an icon (see LoadableIcon).

To obtain a hash of a Icon, see g_icon_hash().

To check if two GIcons are equal, see g_icon_equal().

For serializing a Icon, use IconExt::serialize() and deserialize().

If you want to consume Icon (for example, in a toolkit) you must be prepared to handle at least the three following cases: LoadableIcon, ThemedIcon and EmblemedIcon. It may also make sense to have fast-paths for other cases (like handling GdkPixbuf directly, for example) but all compliant Icon implementations outside of GIO must implement LoadableIcon.

If your application or library provides one or more Icon implementations you need to ensure that your new implementation also implements LoadableIcon. Additionally, you must provide an implementation of IconExt::serialize() that gives a result that is understood by deserialize(), yielding one of the built-in icon types.

Implements

IconExt

Implementations

Deserializes a Icon previously serialized using IconExt::serialize().

value

a glib::Variant created with IconExt::serialize()

Returns

a Icon, or None when deserialization fails.

Gets a hash for an icon.

icon

gconstpointer to an icon object.

Returns

a guint containing a hash for the icon, suitable for use in a GHashTable or similar data structure.

Generate a Icon instance from str. This function can fail if str is not valid - see IconExt::to_string() for discussion.

If your application or library provides one or more Icon implementations you need to ensure that each GType is registered with the type system prior to calling for_string().

str

A string obtained via IconExt::to_string().

Returns

An object implementing the Icon interface or None if error is set.
