I'm working on Recent Files documentation. There's a RecentFilter member function in GTK+ that's not wrapped: gtk_recent_filter_filter(). The GTK+ documentation says that this function is only really used in the implementation of GtkRecentChooser and friends, so I assume that this is why the function was not wrapped.
However, I'm thinking of a situation where you get a list of recently-used items from RecentManager::get_items() and you want to filter these (i.e. without going through the default chooser widgets). Wouldn't Gtk::RecentFilter::filter() be useful in this case? The only problem is that I'm not sure if the underlying GTK+ machinery works well for this case (maybe it wasn't intended to) because gtk_recent_filter_filter() takes a GtkRecentFilterInfo object, and I'm not sure how you would go about converting a GtkRecentInfo object (the type returned from get_items()) to a GtkRecentFilterInfo object without a bunch of tedious copying between the two. Is this a valid use-case? should I ask the GTK+ developers? -- jonner _______________________________________________ gtkmm-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtkmm-list
