Glib::ustring Gtk::SelectionData::get_text | ( |  | ) |

Gets the contents of the selection data as a UTF-8 string.

Returns:
  If the selection data contained a recognized text type and it could be converted to UTF-8, a string containing the converted text, otherwise an empty string.

const GtkSelectionData* Gtk::SelectionData::gobj | ( |  | ) | const`[inline]`

| Provides access to the underlying C instance.

GtkSelectionData* Gtk::SelectionData::gobj | ( |  | ) | `[inline]`

| Provides access to the underlying C instance.

SelectionData& Gtk::SelectionData::operator= | ( | const SelectionData& | other | ) |

void Gtk::SelectionData::set | ( | const std::string& | type,
|  | const std::string& | data
| ) |

Assign a string of raw data.

Store new data into the Gtk::SelectionData object. Should _only_ by called from a selection handler callback.

Parameters:

  type | The type of the selection.
  data | A string that contains the data (does not have to be text).

void Gtk::SelectionData::set | ( | const std::string& | type,
|  | int | format,
|  | const guint8* | data,
|  | int | length
| ) |

Assign a memory block of raw data.

Store new data into the Gtk::SelectionData object. Should _only_ by called from a selection handler callback. A 0-byte terminates the stored data.

Parameters:

  type | The type of the selection.
  format | The data format, i.e. the number of bits in a unit.
  data | Pointer to the data (will be copied).
  length | The length of the data block in bytes.

bool Gtk::SelectionData::set_text | ( | const Glib::ustring& | data | ) |

Assign UTF-8 encoded text.

Sets the contents of the selection from a UTF-8 encoded string. The string is converted to the form determined by get_target().

Parameters:

  data | A UTF-8 encoded string.

Returns:
  `true` if the selection was successfully set, otherwise `false`.

void Gtk::SelectionData::swap | ( | SelectionData& | other | ) |

bool Gtk::SelectionData::targets_include_text | ( |  | ) |

Given a Gtk::SelectionData object holding a list of targets, determines if any of the targets in targets can be used to provide text.

Returns:
  `true` if selection_data holds a list of targets, and a suitable target for text is included, otherwise `false`.
