Function Documentation

wrap() [1/3]

Mutex * wrap ( GMutex * gobject )

related

A C++ wrapper for the C object.

Do not use operator delete on the returned pointer. If the caller owns the GMutex object, the caller must destroy it in the same way as if this function had not been called.

Parameters

gobject

The C instance.

Returns

The GMutex* cast to a Glib::Threads::Mutex*.

wrap() [2/3]

RecMutex * wrap ( GRecMutex * gobject )

related

A C++ wrapper for the C object.

Do not use operator delete on the returned pointer. If the caller owns the GRecMutex object, the caller must destroy it in the same way as if this function had not been called.

Parameters

gobject

The C instance.

Returns

The GRecMutex* cast to a Glib::Threads::RecMutex*.

wrap() [3/3]

Thread * wrap ( GThread * gobject )

related

A C++ wrapper for the C object.

Parameters

gobject

The C instance.

Returns

The C++ wrapper.

Deprecated

Please use std::thread instead.
