Image.from_file
Description:
[ CCode ( has_construct_function = false , type = "GtkWidget*" ) ]
public Image.from_file (string filename)
public Image.from_file (string filename)
Creates a new Image displaying the file filename.
If the file isn’t found or can’t be loaded, the resulting Image will display a “broken image” icon. This function never returns null, it always returns a valid Image widget.
If the file contains an animation, the image will contain an animation.
If you need to detect failures to load the file, use Pixbuf.from_file to load the file yourself, then create the Image from the pixbuf. ( Or for animations, use PixbufAnimation.from_file).
The storage type (get_storage_type) of the returned image is not defined, it will be whatever is appropriate for displaying the file.
Parameters:
| filename |
a filename |
Returns:
|
a new Image |
