[Glade-users] Automatic Signal Handler Generation

[John Beatty]

I use Glade to write small GUI programs for my own use. When I use Windows, I am a great fan of Borlands Delphi IDE. Now I'm quite happy to program in C but I miss the automatic generation of outlines for signal handlers available in the Borland product. I would be happy to write my own helper program to, say, parse the glade.xml file from which I could find all the lines like:

<signal name="insert-text" handler="on_entry_flow_insert_text" swapped="no"/>

I would like the community's suggestions on which files I should then inspect to generate the appropriate information for inclusion in my header files, e.g. in this case:

void user_function (GtkEditable *editable,
                    gchar       *new_text,
                    gint         new_text_length,
                    gpointer     position,
                    gpointer     user_data)

where I would, of course, replace 'user_function' with my own handler name: 'on_entry_flow_insert_text'

Kind regards
