Detailed Description

Thist is a list model for use with a Gtk::TreeView widget.

It implements the Gtk::TreeModel interface, and also implements the Gtk::TreeSortable interface so you can sort the list using the view. Finally, it also implements the tree drag and drop interfaces.


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

virtual Gtk::ListStore::~ListStore ( ) [virtual]
Gtk::ListStore::ListStore ( ) [protected]

When using this constructor, you must use set_column_types() immediately afterwards.

This can be useful when deriving from this class, with a fixed TreeModelColumnRecord that is a member of the class. There is no create() method that corresponds to this constructor, because this constructor should only be used by derived classes.

Gtk::ListStore::ListStore ( const TreeModelColumnRecord columns) [explicit, protected]

Member Function Documentation

iterator Gtk::ListStore::append ( )

Creates a new row at the end.

The row will be empty - to fill in values, you need to dereference the returned iterator and use Row::operator[] or Row::set_value(). See also insert() and prepend().

Returns:
An iterator to the new row.
void Gtk::ListStore::clear ( )

Removes all rows from the list store.

static Glib::RefPtr<ListStore> Gtk::ListStore::create ( const TreeModelColumnRecord columns) [static]

Instantiate a new ListStore.

Parameters:
columnsThe column types for this tree model.
Returns:
The new ListStore.
iterator Gtk::ListStore::erase ( const iterator iter)

Removes the given row from the list store.

Parameters:
iterThe iterator to the row to be removed.
Returns:
An iterator to the next row, or end() if there is none.
const GtkListStore* Gtk::ListStore::gobj ( ) const [inline]

Provides access to the underlying C GObject.

Reimplemented from Gtk::Buildable.

GtkListStore* Gtk::ListStore::gobj ( ) [inline]

Provides access to the underlying C GObject.

Reimplemented from Gtk::Buildable.

GtkListStore* Gtk::ListStore::gobj_copy ( )

Provides access to the underlying C instance. The caller is responsible for unrefing it. Use when directly setting fields in structs.

iterator Gtk::ListStore::insert ( const iterator iter)

Creates a new row before the position.

If iter is end() then a new row will be appended to the list. The row will be empty - to fill in values, you need to dereference the returned iterator and use Row::operator[] or Row::set_value(). See also prepend() and append().

Parameters:
iterAn iterator to the row before which the new row will be inserted.
Returns:
An iterator to the new row.
iterator Gtk::ListStore::insert_after ( const iterator iter)

Creates a new row after the position.

If iter is end() then a new row will be prepended to the list. The row will be empty - to fill in values, you need to dereference the returned iterator and use Row::operator[] or Row::set_value(). See also insert(), prepend() and append().

Parameters:
iterAn iterator to the row after which the new row will be inserted.
Returns:
An iterator to the new row.
bool Gtk::ListStore::iter_is_valid ( const iterator iter) const

<warning>This function is slow.

Only use it for debugging and/or testing purposes.</warning>

Checks if the given iter is a valid iter for this Gtk::ListStore.

Since gtkmm 2.2:
Parameters:
iterA Gtk::TreeIter.
Returns:
true if the iter is valid, false if the iter is invalid.
void Gtk::ListStore::iter_swap ( const iterator a,
const iterator b 
)

Swaps a and b in store.

Note that this function only works with unsorted stores.

Since gtkmm 2.2:
Parameters:
aA Gtk::TreeIter.
bAnother Gtk::TreeIter.
void Gtk::ListStore::move ( const iterator source,
const iterator destination 
)

Moves source to the position at destination.

Note that this function only works with unsorted stores.

Parameters:
sourceThe row that should be moved.
destinationThe position to move to.
iterator Gtk::ListStore::prepend ( )

Creates a new row at the start.

The row will be empty - to fill in values, you need to dereference the returned iterator and use Row::operator[] or Row::set_value(). See also insert() and append().

Returns:
An iterator to the new row.
void Gtk::ListStore::reorder ( const std::vector< int > &  new_order)

Reorders the list store to follow the order indicated by new_order.

Note that this function only works with unsorted stores.

void Gtk::ListStore::set_column_types ( const TreeModelColumnRecord columns)
virtual void Gtk::ListStore::set_value_impl ( const iterator row,
int  column,
const Glib::ValueBase value 
) [protected, virtual]

Override and implement this in a derived TreeModel class, so that Row::operator() and Row::set_value() work.

You can probably just implement this by calling set_value_vfunc(). Your implementation of set_value_impl() should also call row_changed() after changing the value.

Reimplemented from Gtk::TreeModel.

Glib::RefPtr< Gtk::ListStore > wrap ( GtkListStore *  object,
bool  take_copy = false
