Known Implementations

AtkSelection is implemented by AtkNoOpObject.

Includes

#include <atk/atk.h>

Description

AtkSelection should be implemented by UI components with children which are exposed by atk_object_ref_child and atk_object_get_n_children, if the use of the parent UI component ordinarily involves selection of one or more of the objects corresponding to those AtkObject children - for example, selectable lists.

Note that other types of "selection" (for instance text selection) are accomplished a other ATK interfaces - AtkSelection is limited to the selection/deselection of children.

Functions

atk_selection_add_selection ()

gboolean
atk_selection_add_selection (AtkSelection *selection,
                             gint i);

Adds the specified accessible child of the object to the object's selection.

Parameters

selection

a GObject instance that implements AtkSelectionIface

 

i

a gint specifying the child index.

 

Returns

TRUE if success, FALSE otherwise.


atk_selection_clear_selection ()

gboolean
atk_selection_clear_selection (AtkSelection *selection);

Clears the selection in the object so that no children in the object are selected.

Parameters

selection

a GObject instance that implements AtkSelectionIface

 

Returns

TRUE if success, FALSE otherwise.


atk_selection_ref_selection ()

AtkObject *
atk_selection_ref_selection (AtkSelection *selection,
                             gint i);

Gets a reference to the accessible object representing the specified selected child of the object. Note: callers should not rely on NULL or on a zero value for indication of whether AtkSelectionIface is implemented, they should use type checking/interface checking macros or the atk_get_accessible_value() convenience method.

Parameters

selection

a GObject instance that implements AtkSelectionIface

 

i

a gint specifying the index in the selection set. (e.g. the ith selection as opposed to the ith child).

 

Returns

an AtkObject representing the selected accessible, or NULL if selection does not implement this interface.

[nullable][transfer full]


atk_selection_get_selection_count ()

gint
atk_selection_get_selection_count (AtkSelection *selection);

Gets the number of accessible children currently selected. Note: callers should not rely on NULL or on a zero value for indication of whether AtkSelectionIface is implemented, they should use type checking/interface checking macros or the atk_get_accessible_value() convenience method.

Parameters

selection

a GObject instance that implements AtkSelectionIface

 

Returns

a gint representing the number of items selected, or 0 if selection does not implement this interface.


atk_selection_is_child_selected ()

gboolean
atk_selection_is_child_selected (AtkSelection *selection,
                                 gint i);

Determines if the current child of this object is selected Note: callers should not rely on NULL or on a zero value for indication of whether AtkSelectionIface is implemented, they should use type checking/interface checking macros or the atk_get_accessible_value() convenience method.

Parameters

selection

a GObject instance that implements AtkSelectionIface

 

i

a gint specifying the child index.

 

Returns

a gboolean representing the specified child is selected, or 0 if selection does not implement this interface.


atk_selection_remove_selection ()

gboolean
atk_selection_remove_selection (AtkSelection *selection,
                                gint i);

Removes the specified child of the object from the object's selection.

Parameters

selection

a GObject instance that implements AtkSelectionIface

 

i

a gint specifying the index in the selection set. (e.g. the ith selection as opposed to the ith child).

 

Returns

TRUE if success, FALSE otherwise.


atk_selection_select_all_selection ()

gboolean
atk_selection_select_all_selection (AtkSelection *selection);

Causes every child of the object to be selected if the object supports multiple selections.

Parameters

selection

a GObject instance that implements AtkSelectionIface

 

Returns

TRUE if success, FALSE otherwise.

Types and Values

AtkSelection

typedef struct _AtkSelection AtkSelection;

Signal Details

The “selection-changed” signal

void
user_function (AtkSelection *atkselection,
               gpointer      user_data)

The "selection-changed" signal is emitted by an object which implements AtkSelection interface when the selection changes.

Parameters

atkselection

the object which received the signal.

 

user_data

user data set when the signal handler was connected.
