Hi Everyone, I was experimenting with creating a property editor for schematic objects (x, y, color, etc...). Receiving notification of property changes seems to be one of the difficult hurdles with this implementation. To me, it would seem beneficial to convert OBJECT to use GObject to enable the use of signals.
Alternative mechanisms include creating a callback mechanism, such as registering and unregistering simple function pointers. This implementation would probably reduce the magnitude of the changes, but would not provide any of the other benefits of using GObject as a base. The archives had some mention of changing OBJECT to use GObject as a base, but I didn't see any consensus to that direction. What is the current sentiment on using GObject as a base for OBJECT and using signals for property change notification? Would there be a preferred alternate mechanism for property change notification? Or, has anyone already undertaken a project to implement this functionality?
