Gtk.Builder.add_from_file

### Method

# Gtk Builderadd_from_file

#### Declaration [src]

    gboolean
    gtk_builder_add_from_file (
      GtkBuilder* builder,
      const char* filename,
      GError** error
    )

#### Description [src]

Parses a file containing a UI definition and merges it with the current contents of `builder`.

This function is useful if you need to call `gtk_builder_set_current_object()`) to add user data to callbacks before loading GtkBuilder UI. Otherwise, you probably want `gtk_builder_new_from_file()` instead.

If an error occurs, 0 will be returned and `error` will be assigned a `GError` from the `GTK_BUILDER_ERROR`, `G_MARKUP_ERROR` or `G_FILE_ERROR` domains.

It’s not really reasonable to attempt to handle failures of this call. You should not use this function with untrusted files (ie: files that are not part of your application). Broken `GtkBuilder` files can easily crash your program, and it’s possible that memory was leaked leading up to the reported failure. The only reasonable thing to do when an error is detected is to call `g_error()`.

#### Parameters

`filename` | `const char*`
| The name of the file to parse.
| The data is owned by the caller of the function.
| The string is a file system path, using the OS encoding.
`error` | `GError **`
| The return location for a `GError*`, or `NULL`.

#### Return value

Returns: | `gboolean`
| `TRUE` on success, `FALSE` if an error occurred.
