GType glade_util_get_type_from_name (const gchar *name,gboolean have_func);
Returns the type using the "get type" function name based on name
.  
If the have_func
 flag is true,name
 is used directly, otherwise the get-type 
function is contrived from name
 then used.
| name | the name of the GType - like 'GtkWidget' or a "get-type" function. | |
| have_func | function-name flag -- true if the name is a "get-type" function. | 
GParamSpec *
glade_utils_get_pspec_from_funcname (const gchar *funcname);
gboolean glade_util_ui_message (GtkWidget *parent,GladeUIMessageType type,GtkWidget *widget,const gchar *format,...);
Creates a new warning dialog window as a child of parent
 containing
the text of format
, runs it, then destroys it on close. Depending
on type
, a cancel button may apear or the icon may change.
| parent | ||
| type | ||
| widget | a GtkWidget to append to the dialog vbox | |
| format | a printf style format string | |
| ... | args for the format. | 
void glade_util_flash_message (GtkWidget *statusbar,guint context_id,gchar *format,...);
gint glade_util_compare_stock_labels (gconstpointer a,gconstpointer b);
This is a GCompareFunc that compares the labels of two stock items, ignoring any '_' characters. It isn't particularly efficient.
GtkWidget * glade_util_file_dialog_new (const gchar *title,GladeProject *project,GtkWindow *parent,GladeUtilFileDialogType action);
| title | dialog title | |
| project | a GladeProject used when saving | |
| parent | a parent GtkWindow for the dialog | |
| action | a GladeUtilFileDialogType to say if the dialog will open or save | 
void glade_util_replace (gchar *str,gchar a,gchar b);
Replaces each occurance of the character a
 in str
 to b
.
gchar *
glade_util_read_prop_name (const gchar *str);
Return a usable version of a property identifier as found in a freshly parserd GladeInterface
gchar *
glade_util_duplicate_underscores (const gchar *name);
Duplicates name
, but the copy has two underscores in place of any single
underscore in the original.
GList *
glade_util_container_get_all_children (GtkContainer *container);
Use this to itterate over all children in a GtkContainer,
as it used _forall() instead of _foreach() (and the GTK+ version
of this function is simply not exposed).
Note that glade_widget_class_get_children() is the high-level
abstraction and will usually end up calling this function.
GtkTreeIter * glade_util_find_iter_by_widget (GtkTreeModel *model,GladeWidget *findme,gint column);
Looks through model
 for the GtkTreeIter corresponding to 
findme
 under column
.
 a newly allocated GtkTreeIter from model
corresponding
to findme
which should be freed with gtk_tree_iter_free()
GList * glade_util_removed_from_list (GList *old_list,GList *new_list);
gchar *
glade_util_canonical_path (const gchar *path);
 an absolute path to the specified file or directory
that contains no ".." or "." components (this does
not call readlink like realpath() does).
Note: on some systems; I think its possible that we dont have
permission to execute in the directory in which the glade
file resides; I decided finally to do it this way anyway
since libc's realpath() does exactly the same.
GModule *
glade_util_load_library (const gchar *library_name);
Loads the named library from the Glade modules and lib directory or failing that from the standard platform specific directories. (Including /usr/local/lib for unices)
The library_name
 should not include any platform specifix prefix or suffix,
those are automatically added, if needed, by g_module_build_path()
gboolean
glade_util_file_is_writeable (const gchar *path);
Checks whether the file at path
 is writeable
GtkWidget *
glade_util_get_devhelp_icon (GtkIconSize size);
Creates an image displaying the devhelp icon.
void glade_util_search_devhelp (const gchar *book,const gchar *page,const gchar *search);
GtkWidget *
glade_util_get_placeholder_from_pointer
                               (GtkContainer *container);
gboolean
glade_util_url_show (const gchar *url);
Portable function for showing an URL url
 in a web browser.
