Description

The AtkRegistry is normally used to create appropriate ATK "peers" for user interface components. Application developers usually need only interact with the AtkRegistry by associating appropriate ATK implementation classes with GObject classes via the atk_registry_set_factory_type call, passing the appropriate GType for application custom widget classes.

Functions

atk_registry_set_factory_type ()

void
atk_registry_set_factory_type (AtkRegistry *registry,
                               GType type,
                               GType factory_type);

Associate an AtkObjectFactory subclass with a GType. Note: The associated factory_type will thereafter be responsible for the creation of new AtkObject implementations for instances appropriate for type .

Parameters

registry

the AtkRegistry in which to register the type association

 

type

an AtkObject type

 

factory_type

an AtkObjectFactory type to associate with type . Must implement AtkObject appropriate for type .

 

atk_registry_get_factory_type ()

GType
atk_registry_get_factory_type (AtkRegistry *registry,
                               GType type);

Provides a GType indicating the AtkObjectFactory subclass associated with type .

Parameters

registry

an AtkRegistry

 

type

a GType with which to look up the associated AtkObjectFactory subclass

 

Returns

a GType associated with type type


atk_registry_get_factory ()

AtkObjectFactory *
atk_registry_get_factory (AtkRegistry *registry,
                          GType type);

Gets an AtkObjectFactory appropriate for creating AtkObjects appropriate for type .

Parameters

registry

an AtkRegistry

 

type

a GType with which to look up the associated AtkObjectFactory

 

Returns

an AtkObjectFactory appropriate for creating AtkObjects appropriate for type .

[transfer none]


atk_get_default_registry ()

AtkRegistry *
atk_get_default_registry (void);

Gets a default implementation of the AtkObjectFactory/type registry. Note: For most toolkit maintainers, this will be the correct registry for registering new AtkObject factories. Following a call to this function, maintainers may call atk_registry_set_factory_type() to associate an AtkObjectFactory subclass with the GType of objects for whom accessibility information will be provided.

Returns

a default implementation of the AtkObjectFactory/type registry.
