Optionalproperties: Partial<Gtk.ListStore.ConstructorProps>Internal$signalsCompile-time signal type information.
This instance property is generated only for TypeScript type checking. It is not defined at runtime and should not be accessed in JS code.
Static$gtypeCreates a binding between source_property on source and target_property
on target.
Whenever the source_property is changed the target_property is
updated using the same value. For instance:
g_object_bind_property (action, "active", widget, "sensitive", 0);
Will result in the "sensitive" property of the widget GObject.Object instance to be updated with the same value of the "active" property of the action GObject.Object instance.
If flags contains GObject.BindingFlags.BIDIRECTIONAL then the binding will be mutual:
if target_property on target changes then the source_property on source
will be updated as well.
The binding will automatically be removed when either the source or the
target instances are finalized. To remove the binding without affecting the
source and the target you can just call g_object_unref() on the returned
GObject.Binding instance.
Removing the binding by calling g_object_unref() on it must only be done if
the binding, source and target are only used from a single thread and it
is clear that both source and target outlive the binding. Especially it
is not safe to rely on this if the binding, source or target can be
finalized from different threads. Keep another reference to the binding and
use g_binding_unbind() instead to be on the safe side.
A GObject.Object can have multiple bindings.

Complete version of g_object_bind_property().
Creates a binding between source_property on source and target_property
on target, allowing you to set the transformation functions to be used by
the binding.
If flags contains GObject.BindingFlags.BIDIRECTIONAL then the binding will be mutual:
if target_property on target changes then the source_property on source
will be updated as well. The transform_from function is only used in case
of bidirectional bindings, otherwise it will be ignored
The binding will automatically be removed when either the source or the
target instances are finalized. This will release the reference that is
being held on the GObject.Binding instance; if you want to hold on to the
GObject.Binding instance, you will need to hold a reference to it.
To remove the binding, call g_binding_unbind().
A GObject.Object can have multiple bindings.
The same user_data parameter will be used for both transform_to
and transform_from transformation functions; the notify function will
be called once, when the binding is removed. If you need different data
for each transformation function, please use
g_object_bind_property_with_closures() instead.

This function is intended for GObject.Object implementations to re-enforce
a [floating][floating-ref] object reference. Doing this is seldom
required: all GInitiallyUnowneds are created with a floating reference
which usually just needs to be sunken by calling g_object_ref_sink().
Calls func on each node in model in a depth-first fashion.
If func returns true, then the tree ceases to be walked,
and gtk_tree_model_foreach() returns.

Increases the freeze count on object. If the freeze count is
non-zero, the emission of "notify" signals on object is
stopped. The signals are queued until the freeze count is decreased
to zero. Duplicate notifications are squashed so that at most one
GObject.Object::notify signal is emitted for each property modified while the
object is frozen.
This is necessary for accessors that modify multiple properties to prevent premature notification while the object is still being modified.

Creates a new row at position. iter will be changed to point to this new
row. If position is -1 or is larger than the number of rows on the list,
then the new row will be appended to the list. The row will be empty after
this function is called. To fill in values, you need to call
gtk_list_store_set() or gtk_list_store_set_value().

Inserts a new row after sibling. If sibling is null, then the row will be
prepended to the beginning of the list. iter will be changed to point to
this new row. The row will be empty after this function is called. To fill
in values, you need to call gtk_list_store_set() or gtk_list_store_set_value().
Optionalsibling: Gtk.TreeIterA valid Gtk.TreeIter, or null
Inserts a new row before sibling. If sibling is null, then the row will
be appended to the end of the list. iter will be changed to point to this

Sets iter to point to the first child of parent.
If parent has no children, false is returned and iter is
set to be invalid. parent will remain a valid node after this
function has been called.

Sets iter to be the child of parent, using the given index.
The first index is 0. If n is too big, or parent has no children,
iter is set to an invalid iterator and false is returned. parent
will remain a valid node after this function has been called. As a
special case, if parent is null, then the n-th root node
is set.

Sets iter to be the parent of child.
If child is at the toplevel, and doesn’t have a parent, then
iter is set to an invalid iterator and false is returned.
child will remain a valid node after this function has been
called.
iter will be initialized before the lookup is performed, so child
and iter cannot point to the same memory location.

Sets iter to point to the previous node at the current level.
If there is no previous iter, false is returned and iter is
set to be invalid.

Moves iter in store to the position after position. Note that this
function only works with unsorted stores. If position is null, iter
will be moved to the start of the list.

Emits a "notify" signal for the property property_name on object.
When possible, eg. when signaling a property change from within the class
that registered the property, you should use g_object_notify_by_pspec()
instead.
Note that emission of the notify signal may be blocked with
g_object_freeze_notify(). In this case, the signal emissions are queued
and will be emitted (in reverse order) when g_object_thaw_notify() is
called.
the name of a property installed on the class of object.
Emits a "notify" signal for the property specified by pspec on object.
This function omits the property name lookup, hence it is faster than
g_object_notify().
One way to avoid using g_object_notify() from within the
class that registered the properties, and using g_object_notify_by_pspec()
instead, is to store the GParamSpec used with
g_object_class_install_property() inside a static array, e.g.:
typedef enum
{
PROP_FOO = 1,
PROP_LAST
} MyObjectProperty;
static GParamSpec *properties[PROP_LAST];
static void
my_object_class_init (MyObjectClass *klass)
{
properties[PROP_FOO] = g_param_spec_int ("foo", NULL, NULL,
0, 100,
50,
G_PARAM_READWRITE | G_PARAM_STATIC_STRINGS);
g_object_class_install_property (gobject_class,
PROP_FOO,
properties[PROP_FOO]);
}
and then notify a change on the "foo" property with:
g_object_notify_by_pspec (self, properties[PROP_FOO]);
the GObject.ParamSpec of a property installed on the class of object.
Increases the reference count of object.
Since GLib 2.56, if GLIB_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED is 2.56 or greater, the type
of object will be propagated to the return type (using the GCC typeof()
extension), so any casting the caller needs to do on the return type must be
explicit.
the same object
Lets the tree ref the node.
This is an optional method for models to implement. To be more specific, models may ignore this call as it exists primarily for performance reasons.
This function is primarily meant as a way for views to let caching models know when nodes are being displayed (and hence, whether or not to cache that node). Being displayed means a node is in an expanded branch, regardless of whether the node is currently visible in the viewport. For example, a file-system based model would not want to keep the entire file-hierarchy in memory, just the sections that are currently being displayed by every current view.
A model should be expected to be able to get an iter independent of its reffed state.
the Gtk.TreeIter-struct
Increase the reference count of object, and possibly remove the
[floating][floating-ref] reference, if object has a floating reference.
In other words, if the object is floating, then this call "assumes ownership" of the floating reference, converting it to a normal reference by clearing the floating flag while leaving the reference count unchanged. If the object is not floating, then this call adds a new normal reference increasing the reference count by one.
Since GLib 2.56, the type of object will be propagated to the return type
under the same conditions as for g_object_ref().

Removes the given row from the list store. After being removed,
iter is set to be the next valid row, or invalidated if it pointed
to the last row in list_store.

This should be called by models after a row has been removed.
The location pointed to by path should be the location that
the row previously was at. It may not be a valid location anymore.
Nodes that are deleted are not unreffed, this means that any outstanding references on the deleted node should not be released.

Determines whether a drop is possible before the given dest_path,
at the same depth as dest_path. i.e., can we drop the data in
selection_data at that location. dest_path does not have to

parent of dest_path doesn’t exist, though.

Each object carries around a table of associations from strings to pointers. This function lets you set an association.
If the object already had an association with that name, the old association will be destroyed.
Internally, the key is converted to a GLib.Quark using g_quark_from_string().
This means a copy of key is kept permanently (even after object has been
finalized) — so it is recommended to only use a small, bounded set of values
for key in your program, to avoid the GLib.Quark storage growing unbounded.

Optionaldata: anydata to associate with that key
Sets the default comparison function used when sorting to be sort_func.
If the current sort column id of sortable is
GTK_TREE_SORTABLE_DEFAULT_SORT_COLUMN_ID, then the model will sort using
this function.
If sort_func is null, then there will be no default comparison function.
This means that once the model has been sorted, it can’t go back to the
default state. In this case, when the current sort column id of sortable
is GTK_TREE_SORTABLE_DEFAULT_SORT_COLUMN_ID, the model will be unsorted.

name of the key
the data if found, or null if no such data exists.
This function gets back user data pointers stored via
g_object_set_qdata() and removes the data from object
without invoking its destroy() function (if any was
set).
Usually, calling this function is only required to update
user data pointers with a destroy notifier, for example:
void
object_add_to_user_list (GObject *object,
const gchar *new_string)
{
// the quark, naming the object data
GQuark quark_string_list = g_quark_from_static_string ("my-string-list");
// retrieve the old string list
GList *list = g_object_steal_qdata (object, quark_string_list);
// prepend new string
list = g_list_prepend (list, g_strdup (new_string));
// this changed 'list', so we need to set it again
g_object_set_qdata_full (object, quark_string_list, list, free_string_list);
}
static void
free_string_list (gpointer data)
{
GList *node, *list = data;
for (node = list; node; node = node->next)
g_free (node->data);
g_list_free (list);
}
Using g_object_get_qdata() in the above example, instead of
g_object_steal_qdata() would have left the destroy function set,
and thus the partial string list would have been freed upon
g_object_set_qdata_full().

Reverts the effect of a previous call to
g_object_freeze_notify(). The freeze count is decreased on object
and when it reaches zero, queued "notify" signals are emitted.
Duplicate notifications for each property are squashed so that at most one GObject.Object::notify signal is emitted for each property, in the reverse order in which they have been queued.
It is an error to call this function when the freeze count is zero.
Unblocks a handler so it will be called again during any signal emissions
Handler ID of the handler to be unblocked
Decreases the reference count of object. When its reference count
drops to 0, the object is finalized (i.e. its memory is freed).
If the pointer to the GObject.Object may be reused in future (for example, if it is
an instance variable of another object), it is recommended to clear the
pointer to null rather than retain a dangling pointer to a potentially
invalid GObject.Object instance. Use g_clear_object() for this.
Lets the tree unref the node.
This is an optional method for models to implement.
To be more specific, models may ignore this call as it exists
primarily for performance reasons. For more information on what
this means, see gtk_tree_model_ref_node().
Please note that nodes that are deleted are not unreffed.

Virtualvfunc_the constructed function is called by g_object_new() as the
final step of the object creation process. At the point of the call, all
construction properties have been set on the object. The purpose of this
call is to allow for object initialisation steps that can only be performed
after construction properties have been set. constructed implementors

of the parent class.
Virtualvfunc_Asks the Gtk.TreeDragSource to delete the row at path, because
it was moved somewhere else via drag-and-drop. Returns false
if the deletion fails because path no longer exists, or for
some model-specific reason. Should robustly handle a path no
longer found in the model!

Virtualvfunc_Sets iter to point to the first child of parent.
If parent has no children, false is returned and iter is
set to be invalid. parent will remain a valid node after this
function has been called.
If parent is null returns the first node, equivalent to
gtk_tree_model_get_iter_first (tree_model, iter);
Optionalparent: Gtk.TreeIterthe Gtk.TreeIter-struct, or null
Virtualvfunc_Returns true if iter has children, false otherwise.
the Gtk.TreeIter-struct to test for children
Virtualvfunc_Returns the number of children that iter has.
As a special case, if iter is null, then the number
of toplevel nodes is returned.
Optionaliter: Gtk.TreeIterthe Gtk.TreeIter-struct, or null
Virtualvfunc_Sets iter to point to the node following it at the current level.
If there is no next iter, false is returned and iter is set
to be invalid.
the Gtk.TreeIter-struct
Virtualvfunc_Sets iter to be the child of parent, using the given index.
The first index is 0. If n is too big, or parent has no children,
iter is set to an invalid iterator and false is returned. parent
will remain a valid node after this function has been called. As a
special case, if parent is null, then the n-th root node
is set.

Virtualvfunc_Sets iter to be the parent of child.
If child is at the toplevel, and doesn’t have a parent, then
iter is set to an invalid iterator and false is returned.
child will remain a valid node after this function has been
called.
iter will be initialized before the lookup is performed, so child
and iter cannot point to the same memory location.
the Gtk.TreeIter-struct
Virtualvfunc_Sets iter to point to the previous node at the current level.
If there is no previous iter, false is returned and iter is
set to be invalid.

Virtualvfunc_Emits a "notify" signal for the property property_name on object.
When possible, eg. when signaling a property change from within the class
that registered the property, you should use g_object_notify_by_pspec()
instead.
Note that emission of the notify signal may be blocked with
g_object_freeze_notify(). In this case, the signal emissions are queued
and will be emitted (in reverse order) when g_object_thaw_notify() is
called.
Virtualvfunc_Virtualvfunc_Lets the tree ref the node.
This is an optional method for models to implement. To be more specific, models may ignore this call as it exists primarily for performance reasons.
This function is primarily meant as a way for views to let caching models know when nodes are being displayed (and hence, whether or not to cache that node). Being displayed means a node is in an expanded branch, regardless of whether the node is currently visible in the viewport. For example, a file-system based model would not want to keep the entire file-hierarchy in memory, just the sections that are currently being displayed by every current view.
A model should be expected to be able to get an iter independent of its reffed state.

a valid Gtk.TreeIter-struct pointing to the changed row
Virtualvfunc_Emits the Gtk.TreeModel.SignalSignatures.row_deleted | Gtk.TreeModel::row-deleted signal on tree_model.
This should be called by models after a row has been removed.
The location pointed to by path should be the location that
the row previously was at. It may not be a valid location anymore.
Nodes that are deleted are not unreffed, this means that any outstanding references on the deleted node should not be released.
a Gtk.TreePath-struct pointing to the previous location of the deleted row
Virtualvfunc_Asks the Gtk.TreeDragSource whether a particular row can be used as the source of a DND operation. If the source doesn’t implement this interface, the row is assumed draggable.
Virtualvfunc_Determines whether a drop is possible before the given dest_path,
at the same depth as dest_path. i.e., can we drop the data in
selection_data at that location. dest_path does not have to
exist; the return value will almost certainly be false if the
parent of dest_path doesn’t exist, though.

Virtualvfunc_Virtualvfunc_Sets the default comparison function used when sorting to be sort_func.
If the current sort column id of sortable is
GTK_TREE_SORTABLE_DEFAULT_SORT_COLUMN_ID, then the model will sort using
this function.
If sort_func is null, then there will be no default comparison function.
This means that once the model has been sorted, it can’t go back to the
default state. In this case, when the current sort column id of sortable
is GTK_TREE_SORTABLE_DEFAULT_SORT_COLUMN_ID, the model will be unsorted.

Virtualvfunc_the generic setter for all properties of this type. Should be
overridden for every type with properties. If implementations of
set_property don't emit property change notification explicitly, this will
be done implicitly by the type system. However, if the notify signal is
emitted explicitly, the type system will not emit it a second time.
Virtualvfunc_Sets the current sort column to be sort_column_id. The sortable will
resort itself to reflect this change, after emitting a
Gtk.TreeSortable.SignalSignatures.sort_column_changed | Gtk.TreeSortable::sort-column-changed signal. sort_column_id may either be
a regular column id, or one of the following special values:
GTK_TREE_SORTABLE_DEFAULT_SORT_COLUMN_ID: the default sort function
will be used, if it is set
GTK_TREE_SORTABLE_UNSORTED_SORT_COLUMN_ID: no sorting will occur
Virtualvfunc_Sets the comparison function used when sorting to be sort_func. If the
current sort column id of sortable is the same as sort_column_id, then
the model will sort using this function.

This function essentially limits the life time of the closure to
the life time of the object. That is, when the object is finalized,
the closure is invalidated by calling g_closure_invalidate() on
it, in order to prevent invocations of the closure with a finalized
(nonexisting) object. Also, g_object_ref() and g_object_unref() are
added as marshal guards to the closure, to ensure that an extra
reference count is held on object during invocation of the
closure. Usually, this function will be called on closures that
use this object as closure data.

The Gtk.ListStore object is a list model for use with a Gtk.TreeView widget. It implements the Gtk.TreeModel interface, and consequentialy, can use all of the methods available there. It also implements the Gtk.TreeSortable interface so it can be sorted by the view. Finally, it also implements the tree [drag and drop][gtk3-GtkTreeView-drag-and-drop] interfaces.
The Gtk.ListStore can accept most GObject types as a column type, though it can’t accept all custom types. Internally, it will keep a copy of data passed in (such as a string or a boxed pointer). Columns that accept
GObjectsare handled a little differently. The Gtk.ListStore will keep a reference to the object instead of copying the value. As a result, if the object is modified, it is up to the application writer to callgtk_tree_model_row_changed()to emit the Gtk.TreeModel.SignalSignatures.row_changed | Gtk.TreeModel::row_changed signal. This most commonly affects lists withGdkPixbufsstored.An example for creating a simple list store:
Performance Considerations
Internally, the Gtk.ListStore was implemented with a linked list with a tail pointer prior to GTK+ 2.6. As a result, it was fast at data insertion and deletion, and not fast at random data access. The Gtk.ListStore sets the #GTK_TREE_MODEL_ITERS_PERSIST flag, which means that
GtkTreeIterscan be cached while the row exists. Thus, if access to a particular row is needed often and your code is expected to run on older versions of GTK+, it is worth keeping the iter around.Atomic Operations
It is important to note that only the methods
gtk_list_store_insert_with_values()andgtk_list_store_insert_with_valuesv()are atomic, in the sense that the row is being appended to the store and the values filled in in a single operation with regard to Gtk.TreeModel signaling. In contrast, using e.g.gtk_list_store_append()and thengtk_list_store_set()will first create a row, which triggers the Gtk.TreeModel.SignalSignatures.row_inserted | Gtk.TreeModel::row-inserted signal on Gtk.ListStore. The row, however, is still empty, and any signal handler connecting to Gtk.TreeModel.SignalSignatures.row_inserted | Gtk.TreeModel::row-inserted on this particular store should be prepared for the situation that the row might be empty. This is especially important if you are wrapping the Gtk.ListStore inside a Gtk.TreeModelFilter and are using a Gtk.TreeModelFilterVisibleFunc. Using any of the non-atomic operations to append rows to the Gtk.ListStore will cause the Gtk.TreeModelFilterVisibleFunc to be visited with an empty row first; the function must be prepared for that.GtkListStore as GtkBuildable
The GtkListStore implementation of the GtkBuildable interface allows to specify the model columns with a
<columns>element that may contain multiple<column>elements, each specifying one model column. The “type” attribute specifies the data type for the column.Additionally, it is possible to specify content for the list store in the UI definition, with the
<data>element. It can contain multiple<row>elements, each specifying to content for one row of the list model. Inside a<row>, the<col>elements specify the content for individual cells.Note that it is probably more common to define your models in the code, and one might consider it a layering violation to specify the content of a list store in a UI definition, data, not presentation, and common wisdom is to separate the two, as far as possible.
An example of a UI Definition fragment for a list store:
