Gnome::Conf::Value wrap (GConfValue* object, bool take_copy=false)
 A Glib::wrap() method for this object.


Detailed Description

Wrapper for primitive types.

This class wraps the primitive types that are passed to and from instances of Gnome::Conf::Client. It has an associated ValueType, which is specified at creation time, but can be changed with assignment. If the type is VALUE_INVALID then the effect of the set and get methods is undefined. Using a default-constructed Value without using any of the set methods produces undefined behaviour.

Compound Values of type VALUE_PAIR and VALUE_LIST can only have elements whose types are neither VALUE_PAIR or VALUE_LIST - they can only have primitive types.

The Value class has copy-by-value semantics - all arguments to the set methods are copied.

Note that while the type is named VALUE_FLOAT, the accessors for floating-point values use double, not float, to preserve accuracy.


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Gnome::Conf::Value::Value ( GConfValue *  castitem,
bool  make_a_copy = false 
) [explicit]
Gnome::Conf::Value::Value ( const Value src)
Gnome::Conf::Value::~Value ( )
Gnome::Conf::Value::Value ( ValueType  type = VALUE_INVALID)
