Detailed Description
An extension of the list model interface that handles selections.
Gtk::SelectionModel is an interface that extends the Gio::ListModel interface by adding support for selections. This support is then used by widgets using list models to add the ability to select and unselect various items.
GTK provides default implementations of the common selection modes such as Gtk::SingleSelection, so you will only need to implement this interface if you want detailed control about how selections should be handled.
A Gtk::SelectionModel supports a single boolean per row indicating if a row is selected or not. This can be queried via is_selected(). When the selected state of one or more rows changes, the model will emit signal_selection_changed() by calling the selection_changed() method. The positions given in that signal may have their selection state changed, though that is not a requirement. If new items added to the model via Gio::ListModel::signal_items_changed() are selected or not is up to the implementation.
Additionally, the interface can expose functionality to select and unselect items. If these functions are implemented, GTK's list widgets will allow users to select and unselect items. However, Gtk::SelectionModels are free to only implement them partially or not at all. In that case the widgets will not support the unimplemented operations.
When selecting or unselecting is supported by a model, the return values of the selection functions do NOT indicate if selection or unselection happened. They are only meant to indicate complete failure, like when this mode of selecting is not supported by the model. Selections may happen asynchronously, so the only reliable way to find out when an item was selected is to listen to the signals that indicate selection.

Glib::RefPtr<const Bitset> Gtk::SelectionModel::get_selection | ( | ) | const |
Gets the set containing all currently selected items in the model.
This function may be slow, so if you are only interested in single item, consider using is_selected() or if you are only interested in a few consider get_selection_in_range().
- Returns
- A Gtk::Bitset containing all the values currently selected in model. If no items are selected, the bitset is empty. The bitset must not be modified.
Glib::RefPtr<const Bitset> Gtk::SelectionModel::get_selection | ( | guint | position, |
guint | n_items | ||
) | const |
Gets a set containing a set where the values in the range [position, position + n_items)
match the selected state of the items in that range.
All values outside that range are undefined.
This function is an optimization for get_selection() when you are only interested in part of the model's selected state. A common use case is in response to the Gtk::SelectionModel::signal_selection_changed() signal.
- Parameters
-
position Start of the queired range. n_items Number of items in the queried range.
- Returns
- A Gtk::Bitset that matches the selection state for the given state with all other values being undefined. The bitset must not be modified.

bool Gtk::SelectionModel::is_selected | ( | guint | position | ) | const |
Checks if the given item is selected.
- Parameters
-
position The position of the item to query.
- Returns
true
if the item is selected.

bool Gtk::SelectionModel::select_all | ( | ) |
Requests to select all items in the model.
- Returns
true
if this action was supported and no fallback should be tried. This does not mean that all items are now selected.

protectedvirtual |
bool Gtk::SelectionModel::select_item | ( | guint | position, |
bool | unselect_rest | ||

Requests to select an item in the model.
- Parameters
-
position The position of the item to select. unselect_rest Whether previously selected items should be unselected.
- Returns
true
if this action was supported and no fallback should be tried. This does not mean the item was selected.

bool | unselect_rest | ||

Requests to select a range of items in the model.
- Parameters
-
position The first item to select. n_items The number of items to select. unselect_rest Whether previously selected items should be unselected.
- Returns
true
if this action was supported and no fallback should be tried. This does not mean the range was selected.

Helper function for implementations of Gtk::SelectionModel.
Call this when a the selection changes to emit the Gtk::SelectionModel::signal_selection_changed() signal.
- Parameters
-
position The first changed item. n_items The number of changed items.
bool Gtk::SelectionModel::set_selection | ( | const Glib::RefPtr< const Bitset >& | selected, |
const Glib::RefPtr< const Bitset >& | mask | ||
) |
This is the most advanced selection updating method that allows the most fine-grained control over selection changes.
If you can, you should try the simpler versions, as implementations are more likely to implement support for those.
Requests that the selection state of all positions set in mask be updated to the respective value in the selected bitmask.
In pseudocode, it would look something like this:
[C example ellipted]
mask and selected must not be modified. They may refer to the same bitset, which would mean that every item in the set should be selected.
- Parameters
-
selected Bitmask specifying if items should be selected or unselected. mask Bitmask specifying which items should be updated.
- Returns
true
if this action was supported and no fallback should be tried. This does not mean that all items were updated according to the inputs.

Glib::SignalProxy<void(guint, guint)> Gtk::SelectionModel::signal_selection_changed | ( | ) |
- Slot Prototype:
void on_my_selection_changed(guint position, guint n_items)
Flags: Run Last
Emitted when the selection state of some of the items in model changes.
Note that this signal does not specify the new selection state of the items, they need to be queried manually. It is also not necessary for a model to change the selection state of any of the items in the selection model, though it would be rather useless to emit such a signal.
- Parameters
-
position The first item that may have changed. n_items Number of items with changes.
bool Gtk::SelectionModel::unselect_all | ( | ) |
Requests to unselect all items in the model.
- Returns
true
if this action was supported and no fallback should be tried. This does not mean that all items are now unselected.
|
protectedvirtual |
bool Gtk::SelectionModel::unselect_item | ( | guint | position | ) |
Requests to unselect an item in the model.
- Parameters
-
position The position of the item to unselect.
- Returns
true
if this action was supported and no fallback should be tried. This does not mean the item was unselected.
|
protectedvirtual |
bool Gtk::SelectionModel::unselect_range | ( | guint | position, |
guint | n_items | ||
) |
Requests to unselect a range of items in the model.
- Parameters
-
position The first item to unselect. n_items The number of items to unselect.
- Returns
true
if this action was supported and no fallback should be tried. This does not mean the range was unselected.
