## Function Documentation

bool _gobject_cppinstance_already_deleted | ( | GObject* | gobject | ) |

SigC::Connection add_exception_handler | ( | const SigC::Slot0<void>& | slot | ) |

| Specify a slot to be called when an exception is thrown by a signal handler.

gunichar get_unichar_from_std_iterator | ( | std::string::const_iterator | pos | ) |

Extract a UCS-4 character from UTF-8 data.

Convert a single UTF-8 (multibyte) character starting at `pos` to a UCS-4 wide character. This may read up to 6 bytes after the start position, depending on the UTF-8 character width. You have to make sure the source contains at least one valid UTF-8 character.

This is mainly used by the implementation of Glib::ustring::iterator, but it might be useful as utility function if you prefer using std::string even for UTF-8 encoding.

template <class T>
const T::BaseObjectType* unwrap | ( | const Glib::RefPtr<const T>& | ptr | ) | `[inline]`

| Get the underlying C instance from the C++ instance. This is just like calling gobj(), but it does its own check for a NULL pointer.
