## Detailed Description

SimpleAction - A simple Action implementation.

A SimpleAction is the obvious simple implementation of the Action interface. This is the easiest way to create an action for purposes of adding it to a SimpleActionGroup.

See also Gtk::Action.

static Glib::RefPtr<SimpleAction> Gio::SimpleAction::create | ( | const Glib::ustring& | name,
|  | const Glib::VariantType& | parameter_type
| ) |  |
| static

Creates a new action.

The created action is stateless. See g_simple_action_new_stateful().

Since glibmm 2.28:

Parameters

  name | The name of the action.
  parameter_type | The type of parameter to the activate function.

Returns
  A new SimpleAction.

| static

Creates a new stateful action.

state is the initial state of the action. All future state values must have the same VariantType as the initial state.

If the state GVariant is floating, it is consumed.

Since glibmm 2.28:

Parameters

  name | The name of the action.
  parameter_type | The type of the parameter to the activate function.
  state | The initial state of the action.

Returns
  A new SimpleAction.

Returns
  A PropertyProxy that allows you to get or set the value of the property, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.

Glib::PropertyProxy_ReadOnly< bool > Gio::SimpleAction::property_enabled | ( |  | ) | const

Glib::PropertyProxy_ReadOnly< Glib::ustring > Gio::SimpleAction::property_name | ( |  | ) | const

The name used to invoke the action.

You rarely need to use properties because there are get_ and set_ methods for almost all of them.

Returns
  A PropertyProxy_ReadOnly that allows you to get the value of the property, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.

Glib::PropertyProxy_ReadOnly< Glib::VariantType > Gio::SimpleAction::property_parameter_type | ( |  | ) | const

You rarely need to use properties because there are get_ and set_ methods for almost all of them.

Returns

You rarely need to use properties because there are get_ and set_ methods for almost all of them.

Returns
  A PropertyProxy that allows you to get or set the value of the property, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.

Glib::PropertyProxy_ReadOnly< Glib::VariantBase > Gio::SimpleAction::property_state | ( |  | ) | const

You rarely need to use properties because there are get_ and set_ methods for almost all of them.

Returns
  A PropertyProxy_ReadOnly that allows you to get the value of the property, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.

Glib::PropertyProxy_ReadOnly< Glib::VariantType > Gio::SimpleAction::property_state_type | ( |  | ) | const

The type of the state kept by the action.

You rarely need to use properties because there are get_ and set_ methods for almost all of them.

Returns
  A PropertyProxy_ReadOnly that allows you to get the value of the property, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.

void Gio::SimpleAction::set_enabled | ( | bool | enabled | ) |

Sets the action as enabled or not.

An action must be enabled in order to be activated or in order to have its state changed from outside callers.

This should only be called by the implementor of the action. Users of the action should not attempt to modify its enabled flag.

Since glibmm 2.28:

Parameters

  enabled | Whether the action is enabled.

void Gio::SimpleAction::set_state | ( | const Glib::VariantBase& | value | ) |

Sets the state of the action.

This directly updates the 'state' property to the given value.

This should only be called by the implementor of the action. Users of the action should not attempt to directly modify the 'state' property. Instead, they should call g_action_change_state() to request the change.

Since glibmm 2.30:

Parameters

  value | The new Variant for the state.

Glib::SignalProxy1< void,const Glib::VariantBase& > Gio::SimpleAction::signal_activate | ( |  | ) |

Slot Prototype:
  `void on_my_activate(const Glib::VariantBase& parameter)`

Indicates that the action was just activated.

will always be of the expected type. In the event that an incorrect type was given, no signal will be emitted.

Since glibmm 2.28:

Parameters

  parameter | The parameter to the activation.

Glib::SignalProxy1< void,const Glib::VariantBase& > Gio::SimpleAction::signal_change_state | ( |  | ) |

Slot Prototype:
  `void on_my_change_state(const Glib::VariantBase& value)`

Indicates that the action just received a request to change its state.

value will always be of the correct state type. In the event that an incorrect type was given, no signal will be emitted.

If no handler is connected to this signal then the default behaviour is to call g_simple_action_set_state() to set the state to the requested value. If you connect a signal handler then no default action is taken. If the state should change then you must call g_simple_action_set_state() from the handler.

<title>Example 'change-state' handler</title>

static void change_volume_state (GSimpleAction *action, GVariant *value, gpointer user_data) { `int` requested;

requested = g_variant_get_int32 (value);

// Volume only goes from 0 to 10 if (0 <= requested&& requested <= 10) g_simple_action_set_state (action, value); }

The handler need not set the state to the requested value. It could set it to any value at all, or take some other action.

Since glibmm 2.30:

Parameters

  value | The requested value for the state.
