Glib::RefPtr<Gio::AppInfo> Gtk::RecentInfo::create_app_info ( const Glib::ustring app_name)

Creates a AppInfo for the specified Gtk::RecentInfo.

Parameters
app_nameThe name of the application that should be mapped to a AppInfo; if nullptr is used then the default application for the MIME type is used.
Returns
The newly created AppInfo, or nullptr. In case of error, error will be set either with a Gtk::RECENT_MANAGER_ERROR or a IO_ERROR.
bool Gtk::RecentInfo::equal ( const RecentInfo info_b) const

Checks whether two Gtk::RecentInfo-struct point to the same resource.

Since gtkmm 2.10:
Parameters
info_bA Gtk::RecentInfo.
Returns
true if both Gtk::RecentInfo-struct point to the same resource, false otherwise.
bool Gtk::RecentInfo::exists ( ) const

Checks whether the resource pointed by info still exists.

At the moment this check is done only on resources pointing to local files.

Since gtkmm 2.10:
Returns
true if the resource exists.
std::time_t Gtk::RecentInfo::get_added ( ) const

Gets the timestamp (seconds from system’s Epoch) when the resource was added to the recently used resources list.

Since gtkmm 2.10:
Returns
The number of seconds elapsed from system’s Epoch when the resource was added to the list, or -1 on failure.
int Gtk::RecentInfo::get_age ( ) const

Gets the number of days elapsed since the last update of the resource pointed by info.

Since gtkmm 2.10:
Returns
A positive integer containing the number of days elapsed since the time this resource was last modified.
bool Gtk::RecentInfo::get_application_info ( const Glib::ustring app_name,
std::string app_exec,
guint &  count,
std::time_t &  time 
) const

Gets the data regarding the application that has registered the resource pointed by info.

If the command line contains any escape characters defined inside the storage specification, they will be expanded.

Since gtkmm 2.10:
Parameters
app_nameThe name of the application that has registered this item.
app_execReturn location for the string containing the command line.
countReturn location for the number of times this item was registered.
timeReturn location for the timestamp this item was last registered for this application.
Returns
true if an application with app_name has registered this resource inside the recently used list, or false otherwise. The app_exec string is owned by the Gtk::RecentInfo and should not be modified or freed.
std::vector<Glib::ustring> Gtk::RecentInfo::get_applications ( ) const

Retrieves the list of applications that have registered this resource.

Since gtkmm 2.10:
Parameters
lengthReturn location for the length of the returned list.
Returns
A newly allocated nullptr-terminated array of strings.
Glib::ustring Gtk::RecentInfo::get_description ( ) const

Gets the (short) description of the resource.

Since gtkmm 2.10:
Returns
The description of the resource. The returned string is owned by the recent manager, and should not be freed.
Glib::ustring Gtk::RecentInfo::get_display_name ( ) const

Gets the name of the resource.

If none has been defined, the basename of the resource is obtained.

Since gtkmm 2.10:
Returns
The display name of the resource. The returned string is owned by the recent manager, and should not be freed.
Glib::RefPtr<Gio::Icon> Gtk::RecentInfo::get_gicon ( )

Retrieves the icon associated to the resource MIME type.

Since gtkmm 2.22:
Returns
A Icon containing the icon, or nullptr. Use Glib::object_unref() when finished using the icon.
Glib::RefPtr<const Gio::Icon> Gtk::RecentInfo::get_gicon ( ) const

Retrieves the icon associated to the resource MIME type.

Since gtkmm 2.22:
Returns
A Icon containing the icon, or nullptr. Use Glib::object_unref() when finished using the icon.
std::vector<Glib::ustring> Gtk::RecentInfo::get_groups ( ) const

Returns all groups registered for the recently used item info.

The array of returned group names will be nullptr terminated, so length might optionally be nullptr.

Since gtkmm 2.10:
Parameters
lengthReturn location for the number of groups returned.
Returns
A newly allocated nullptr terminated array of strings.
Glib::RefPtr<Gdk::Pixbuf> Gtk::RecentInfo::get_icon ( int  size)

Retrieves the icon of size size associated to the resource MIME type.

Since gtkmm 2.10:
Parameters
sizeThe size of the icon in pixels.
