Details¶

class Clutter.ActorIter¶

An iterator structure that allows to efficiently iterate over a section of the scene graph.

The contents of the Clutter.ActorIter structure are private and should only be accessed using the provided API.

New in version 1.10.

destroy()¶

Safely destroys the Clutter.Actor currently pointer to by the iterator from its parent.

This function can only be called after Clutter.ActorIter.next() or Clutter.ActorIter.prev() returned True, and cannot be called more than once for the same actor.

This function will call Clutter.Actor.destroy() internally.

New in version 1.10.

init(root)¶

Parameters:: root (Clutter.Actor) – a Clutter.Actor

Initializes a Clutter.ActorIter, which can then be used to iterate efficiently over a section of the scene graph, and associates it with root.

Modifying the scene graph section that contains root will invalidate the iterator.

ClutterActorIter iter;
ClutterActor *child;

clutter_actor_iter_init (&iter, container);
while (clutter_actor_iter_next (&iter, &child))
  {
    // do something with child
  }

New in version 1.10.

is_valid()¶

Returns:: True if the iterator is valid, and False otherwise
Return type:: bool

Checks whether a Clutter.ActorIter is still valid.

An iterator is considered valid if it has been initialized, and if the Clutter.Actor that it refers to hasn’t been modified after the initialization.

New in version 1.12.

next()¶

Returns:

True if the iterator could advance, and False otherwise.

child:: return location for a Clutter.Actor

Return type:

(bool, child: Clutter.Actor)

Advances the self and retrieves the next child of the root Clutter.Actor that was used to initialize the #ClutterActorIterator.

If the iterator can advance, this function returns True and sets the child argument.

If the iterator cannot advance, this function returns False, and the contents of child are undefined.

New in version 1.10.

prev()¶

Returns:

True if the iterator could advance, and False otherwise.

child:: return location for a Clutter.Actor

Return type:

(bool, child: Clutter.Actor)

Advances the self and retrieves the previous child of the root Clutter.Actor that was used to initialize the #ClutterActorIterator.

If the iterator can advance, this function returns True and sets the child argument.

If the iterator cannot advance, this function returns False, and the contents of child are undefined.

New in version 1.10.

remove()¶

Safely removes the Clutter.Actor currently pointer to by the iterator from its parent.

This function can only be called after Clutter.ActorIter.next() or Clutter.ActorIter.prev() returned True, and cannot be called more than once for the same actor.

This function will call Clutter.Actor.remove_child() internally.

New in version 1.10.
