watch
Description:
Watch the given `expression` for changes.
The notify
function will be called whenever the evaluation of `self` may have changed.
GTK cannot guarantee that the evaluation did indeed change when the notify
gets invoked, but it guarantees the opposite: When it
did in fact change, the notify
will be invoked.
Parameters:
this |
a `GtkExpression` |
this_ |
the `this` argument to watch |
notify |
callback to invoke when the expression changes |
user_data |
user data to pass to the `notify` callback |
user_destroy |
destroy notify for `user_data` |
Returns:
The newly installed watch. Note that the only reference held to the watch will be released when the watch is unwatched which can happen automatically, and not just via [method@Gtk.ExpressionWatch.unwatch]. You should call [method@Gtk.ExpressionWatch.ref] if you want to keep the watch around. |
