Description

Details

struct GnomeDbControlPrivate

struct GnomeDbControlPrivate;


gnome_db_control_construct ()

GnomeDbControl* gnome_db_control_construct  (GnomeDbControl *control,
                                             GtkWidget *widget);


gnome_db_control_new ()

GnomeDbControl* gnome_db_control_new        (GtkWidget *widget);

Creates a new GnomeDbControl object, which is an instance of the Bonobo::Control CORBA interface, with some useful additions.

When calling this function, you must specify an already created GtkWidget, which is the one that will be used for creating the Bonobo control. You should use this class if you intend to write your own Bonobo controls.


gnome_db_control_set_ui ()

void        gnome_db_control_set_ui         (GnomeDbControl *control,
                                             const gchar *app_prefix,
                                             const gchar *ui_xml_file,
                                             BonoboUIVerb *verbs,
                                             gpointer user_data);

Sets the UI for the given GnomeDbControl object. This is done by specifying a file that contains the description of the UI (see Bonobo documentation) and a set of verbs and their corresponding actions.


gnome_db_control_activate ()

void        gnome_db_control_activate       (GnomeDbControl *control);

Activates the given GnomeDbControl object. This means that the UI for this control is merged with the UI of the container.


gnome_db_control_deactivate ()

void        gnome_db_control_deactivate     (GnomeDbControl *control);

Deactivates the given GnomeDbControl object, which means that the control's UI is removed from the container's.


gnome_db_control_set_status ()

void        gnome_db_control_set_status     (GnomeDbControl *control,
                                             const gchar *msg);

Displays the given message on the container's status bar. If you use GnomeDbWindow for your containers, you automatically have a status bar on your window, and, with this function, you can set the message to be displayed on that status bar from the components.
