39 * @short_description: The base object type
40 * @see_also: #GParamSpecObject, g_param_spec_object()
42 * GObject is the fundamental type providing the common attributes and
43 * methods for all object types in GTK+, Pango and other libraries
44 * based on GObject. The GObject class provides methods for object
45 * construction and destruction, property access methods, and signal
46 * support. Signals are described in detail [here][gobject-Signals].
48 * ## Floating references # {#floating-ref}
50 * GInitiallyUnowned is derived from GObject. The only difference between
51 * the two is that the initial reference of a GInitiallyUnowned is flagged
52 * as a "floating" reference. This means that it is not specifically
53 * claimed to be "owned" by any code portion. The main motivation for
54 * providing floating references is C convenience. In particular, it
55 * allows code to be written as:
56 * |[<!-- language="C" -->
57 * container = create_container ();
58 * container_add_child (container, create_child());
60 * If container_add_child() calls g_object_ref_sink() on the passed-in child,
61 * no reference of the newly created child is leaked. Without floating
62 * references, container_add_child() can only g_object_ref() the new child,
63 * so to implement this code without reference leaks, it would have to be
65 * |[<!-- language="C" -->
67 * container = create_container ();
68 * child = create_child ();
69 * container_add_child (container, child);
70 * g_object_unref (child);
72 * The floating reference can be converted into an ordinary reference by
73 * calling g_object_ref_sink(). For already sunken objects (objects that
74 * don't have a floating reference anymore), g_object_ref_sink() is equivalent
75 * to g_object_ref() and returns a new reference.
77 * Since floating references are useful almost exclusively for C convenience,
78 * language bindings that provide automated reference and memory ownership
79 * maintenance (such as smart pointers or garbage collection) should not
80 * expose floating references in their API.
82 * Some object implementations may need to save an objects floating state
83 * across certain code portions (an example is #GtkMenu), to achieve this,
84 * the following sequence can be used:
86 * |[<!-- language="C" -->
87 * /* save floating state */
88 * gboolean was_floating = g_object_is_floating (object);
89 * g_object_ref_sink (object);
90 * /* protected code portion */
92 * /* restore floating state */
94 * g_object_force_floating (object);
96 * g_object_unref (object); /* release previously acquired reference */
