Details

GtkSourceLanguage

typedef struct _GtkSourceLanguage GtkSourceLanguage;

gtk_source_language_get_id ()

const gchar *       gtk_source_language_get_id          (GtkSourceLanguage *language);

Returns the ID of the language. The ID is not locale-dependent.

language :

a GtkSourceLanguage.

Returns :

the ID of language. The returned string is owned by language and should not be freed or modified.

gtk_source_language_get_name ()

const gchar *       gtk_source_language_get_name        (GtkSourceLanguage *language);

Returns the localized name of the language.

language :

a GtkSourceLanguage.

Returns :

the name of language. The returned string is owned by language and should not be freed or modified.

gtk_source_language_get_section ()

const gchar *       gtk_source_language_get_section     (GtkSourceLanguage *language);

Returns the localized section of the language. Each language belong to a section (ex. HTML belogs to the Markup section).

language :

a GtkSourceLanguage.

Returns :

the section of language. The returned string is owned by language and should not be freed or modified.

gtk_source_language_get_hidden ()

gboolean            gtk_source_language_get_hidden      (GtkSourceLanguage *language);

Returns whether the language should be hidden from the user.

language :

a GtkSourceLanguage

Returns :

TRUE if the language should be hidden, FALSE otherwise.

gtk_source_language_get_metadata ()

const gchar *       gtk_source_language_get_metadata    (GtkSourceLanguage *language,
                                                         const gchar *name);

language :

a GtkSourceLanguage.

name :

metadata property name.

Returns :

value of property name stored in the metadata of language or NULL if language doesn't contain that metadata property. The returned string is owned by language and should not be freed or modified.

gtk_source_language_get_mime_types ()

gchar **            gtk_source_language_get_mime_types  (GtkSourceLanguage *language);

Returns the mime types associated to this language. This is just an utility wrapper around gtk_source_language_get_metadata() to retrieve the "mimetypes" metadata property and split it into an array.

language :

a GtkSourceLanguage.

Returns :

a newly-allocated NULL terminated array containing the mime types or NULL if no mime types are found. The returned array must be freed with g_strfreev().

gtk_source_language_get_globs ()

gchar **            gtk_source_language_get_globs       (GtkSourceLanguage *language);

Returns the globs associated to this language. This is just an utility wrapper around gtk_source_language_get_metadata() to retrieve the "globs" metadata property and split it into an array.

language :

a GtkSourceLanguage.

Returns :

a newly-allocated NULL terminated array containing the globs or NULL if no globs are found. The returned array must be freed with g_strfreev().

gtk_source_language_get_style_name ()

const gchar *       gtk_source_language_get_style_name  (GtkSourceLanguage *language,
                                                         const gchar *style_id);

Returns the name of the style with ID style_id defined by this language.

language :

a GtkSourceLanguage

style_id :

a style ID

Returns :

the name of the style with ID style_id defined by this language or NULL if the style has no name or there is no style with ID style_id defined by this language. The returned string is owned by the language and must not be modified.

gchar **            gtk_source_language_get_style_ids   (GtkSourceLanguage *language);

Returns the ids of the styles defined by this language.

language :

a GtkSourceLanguage

Returns :

a NULL terminated array containing ids of the styles defined by this language or NULL if no style is defined. The returned array must be freed with g_strfreev().
