It's been like this in Gtk2, but it wasn't written down anywhere for the introspection-based bindings. I added a few words now: <https://git.gnome.org/browse/perl-Glib-Object-Introspection/commit/?id=2046d7494833aeff538fdbe578ecba0c4788eec9>.

Well, the answer should have been that you need to use the following to get the signal properly marshalled: Glib::Object::Introspection->setup( basename => 'Gio', version => '2.0', package => 'Glib::IO', use_generic_signal_marshaller_for => [ ['Glib::IO::Application', 'open'] ]); (Or to get Glib::IO to do it for you.) Unfortunately, there are two bugs that prevent this from working. One is on our side and is quick to fix: <https://git.gnome.org/browse/perl-Glib-Object-Introspection/commit/?id=2162a9b16a08fbbc9fd7ef2cc85e482ff149c373>. The other is on gio's side and needs to go through their patch approval process before it can go in: <https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=796272>. Once this has been accepted, it also needs to be merged into gobject-introspection to be effective. _______________________________________________ gtk-perl-list mailing list gtk-perl-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-perl-list
