hi; the gtk_message_dialog_format_secondary_text() function is not introspectable, because it takes a variadic arguments list.
not that you'd need it in Perl, tho, since it's just a wrapper around g_strdup_printf(), and Perl has its own string formatting tools. if you want to set the secondary-text property, you can pass the secondary text as a constructor property: $primary = sprintf $primary_format, @primary_args; $secondary = sprintf $secondary_format, @secondary_args; $message_dialog = Glib::Object::new('Gtk3::MessageDialog', text => $primary, secondary_text => $secondary); or you can use the Glib::Object::tie_property() function function to automatically tie properties to values keys in the instance hash, e.g.: $message_dialog->tie_properties; $message_dialog->{secondary_text} = sprintf 'foo %d', $value; # shows the secondary text label $message_dialog->{secondary_text} = undef; # hides the secondary text label as a side note: I'm a bit sad that we still need the overrides for the constructors in Gtk3 just for porting reasons; I would actually make them opt-in, and do what Python and JavaScript do for constructors — i.e. just call Glib::Object::new with a bunch of property key/value pairs. I understand that it makes porting from Gtk2 to Gtk3 mildly easier, but it creates a disconnect with the other high level languages, and it makes some functionality harder to implement. ciao, Emmanuele.
