Hello GTK+ developers This is a question I had while working on some gtkmm documentation for the new recent files stuff in GTK+ 2.10. Can anybody enlighten me on the question below?
[Also, the GtkRecentFilterInfo type is a bit confusing to me in general. It feels more like an internal implementation detail rather than an external API, but maybe I just don't understand it very well -- the documentation is still pretty sparse. Any help would be appreciated] > > There's a RecentFilter > > member function in GTK+ that's not wrapped: > > gtk_recent_filter_filter().
