44 * GBindingTransformFunc:
45 * @binding: a #GBinding
46 * @from_value: the #GValue containing the value to transform
47 * @to_value: the #GValue in which to store the transformed value
48 * @user_data: data passed to the transform function
50 * A function to be called to transform @from_value to @to_value.
52 * If this is the @transform_to function of a binding, then @from_value
53 * is the @source_property on the @source object, and @to_value is the
54 * @target_property on the @target object. If this is the
55 * @transform_from function of a %G_BINDING_BIDIRECTIONAL binding,
56 * then those roles are reversed.
58 * Returns: %TRUE if the transformation was successful, and %FALSE
63 typedef gboolean (* GBindingTransformFunc) (GBinding *binding,
64 const GValue *from_value,
70 * @G_BINDING_DEFAULT: The default binding; if the source property
71 * changes, the target property is updated with its value.
72 * @G_BINDING_BIDIRECTIONAL: Bidirectional binding; if either the
73 * property of the source or the property of the target changes,
74 * the other is updated.
75 * @G_BINDING_SYNC_CREATE: Synchronize the values of the source and
76 * target properties when creating the binding; the direction of
77 * the synchronization is always from the source to the target.
78 * @G_BINDING_INVERT_BOOLEAN: If the two properties being bound are
79 * booleans, setting one to %TRUE will result in the other being
80 * set to %FALSE and vice versa. This flag will only work for
81 * boolean properties, and cannot be used when passing custom
82 * transformation functions to g_object_bind_property_full().
84 * Flags to be passed to g_object_bind_property() or
85 * g_object_bind_property_full().
87 * This enumeration can be extended at later date.
