Details¶

class GObject.ValueArray¶

A GObject.ValueArray contains an array of GObject.Value elements.

classmethod new(n_prealloced)¶

Parameters:: n_prealloced (int) – number of values to preallocate space for
Returns:: a newly allocated GObject.ValueArray with 0 values
Return type:: GObject.ValueArray

Allocate and initialize a new GObject.ValueArray, optionally preserve space for n_prealloced elements. New arrays always contain 0 elements, regardless of the value of n_prealloced.

Deprecated since version 2.32: Use GLib.Array and g_array_sized_new() instead.

append(value)¶

Parameters:: value (GObject.Value or None) – GObject.Value to copy into GObject.ValueArray, or None
Returns:: the GObject.ValueArray passed in as self
Return type:: GObject.ValueArray

Insert a copy of value as last element of self. If value is None, an uninitialized value is appended.

Deprecated since version 2.32: Use GLib.Array and g_array_append_val() instead.

copy()¶

Returns:: Newly allocated copy of GObject.ValueArray
Return type:: GObject.ValueArray

Construct an exact copy of a GObject.ValueArray by duplicating all its contents.

Deprecated since version 2.32: Use GLib.Array and g_array_ref() instead.

get_nth(index_)¶

Parameters:: index (int) – index of the value of interest
Returns:: pointer to a value at index_ in self
Return type:: GObject.Value

Return a pointer to the value at index_ containd in self.

Deprecated since version 2.32: Use g_array_index() instead.

insert(index_, value)¶

Parameters:

index (int) – insertion position, must be <= value_array->;n_values
value (GObject.Value or None) – GObject.Value to copy into GObject.ValueArray, or None

Returns:

the GObject.ValueArray passed in as self

Return type:

GObject.ValueArray

Insert a copy of value at specified position into self. If value is None, an uninitialized value is inserted.

Deprecated since version 2.32: Use GLib.Array and g_array_insert_val() instead.

prepend(value)¶

Parameters:: value (GObject.Value or None) – GObject.Value to copy into GObject.ValueArray, or None
Returns:: the GObject.ValueArray passed in as self
Return type:: GObject.ValueArray

Insert a copy of value as first element of self. If value is None, an uninitialized value is prepended.

Deprecated since version 2.32: Use GLib.Array and g_array_prepend_val() instead.

remove(index_)¶

Parameters:: index (int) – position of value to remove, which must be less than self->n_values
Returns:: the GObject.ValueArray passed in as self
Return type:: GObject.ValueArray

Remove the value at position index_ from self.

Deprecated since version 2.32: Use GLib.Array and g_array_remove_index() instead.

sort(compare_func, *user_data)¶

Parameters:

compare_func (GLib.CompareDataFunc) – function to compare elements
user_data (object or None) – extra data argument provided for compare_func

Returns:

the GObject.ValueArray passed in as self

Return type:

GObject.ValueArray

Sort self using compare_func to compare the elements according to the semantics of GLib.CompareDataFunc.

The current implementation uses the same sorting algorithm as standard C qsort() function.

Deprecated since version 2.32: Use GLib.Array and g_array_sort_with_data().
