ax_check_gir_symbols_gjs

Synopsis

AX_CHECK_GIR_SYMBOLS_GJS(MODULE, APIVERSION, SYMBOLS)

Description

Check that each symbol from the whitespace-separated list of $SYMBOLS is defined inside the GObject Introspection module $MODULE with API version $APIVERSION, and is importable in GJS, GNOME’s JavaScript engine (https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/Gjs).

GObject Introspection (https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/GObjectIntrospection) is a tool for generating bindings from C libraries to higher-level languages. The bindings live in a GObject Introspection repository (GIR) file, which is what this macro checks.

Note that for the purposes of GObject Introspection, the API version is different from the release version. For example, GTK currently has API version 3.0, but that could mean any release from the 3.0, 3.2, 3.4,... series.

Example:

  AX_CHECK_GIR_SYMBOLS_GJS([Gtk], [3.0], [ListBox FlowBox
                                          Widget.get_action_group])

NOTE: This macro depends on AX_PROG_GJS.
