register_flags


Description:

[ Version ( since = "2.6" ) ]
public Type register_flags (string name, FlagsValue const_static_values)

Looks up or registers a flags type that is implemented with a particular type plugin.

If a type with name type_name was previously registered, the Type identifier for the type is returned, otherwise the type is newly registered, and the resulting Type identifier returned.

As long as any instances of the type exist, the type plugin will not be unloaded.

Since 2.56 if this is null this will call g_type_register_static instead. This can be used when making a static build of the module.

Parameters:

this

a TypeModule

name

name for the type

const_static_values

an array of FlagsValue structs for the possible flags values. The array is terminated by a struct with all members being 0.

Returns:

the new or existing type ID
