parse_args


Description:


public bool parse_args (ref unowned string[] argv)

Parses command line arguments, and initializes global attributes of GTK+, but does not actually open a connection to a display.

(See open, get_display_arg_name)

Any arguments used by GTK+ or GDK are removed from the array and argv.length and argv are updated accordingly.

There is no need to call this function explicitly if you are using init, or init_check.

Note that many aspects of GTK+ require a display connection to function, so this way of initializing GTK+ is really only useful for specialized use cases.

Parameters:

argv

a pointer to the array of command line arguments

argc

a pointer to the number of command line arguments

Returns:

true if initialization succeeded, otherwise false
