Detailed Description

The base object class for the Accessibility Toolkit API.

This class is the primary class for accessibility support via the Accessibility ToolKit (ATK). Objects which are instances of Atk::Object (or instances of Atk::Object-derived types) are queried for properties which relate basic (and generic) properties of a UI component such as name and description. Instances of Atk::Object may also be queried as to whether they implement other ATK interfaces (e.g. Atk::Action, Atk::Component, etc.), as appropriate to the role which a given UI component plays in a user interface.

All UI components in an application which provide useful information or services to the user must provide corresponding Atk::Object instances on request (in GTK+, for instance, usually on a call to Gtk::Widget::get_accessible()), either via ATK support built into the toolkit for the widget class or ancestor class, or in the case of custom widgets, if the inherited Atk::Object implementation is insufficient, via instances of a new Atk::Object subclass.

Member Function Documentation

◆ add_relationship()

bool Atk::Object::add_relationship	(	Relation::Type	relationship,
		const Glib::RefPtr< Object >&	target
	)

Adds a relationship of the specified type with the specified target.

Parameters

relationship	The Atk::RelationType of the relation.
target	The Atk::Object which is to be the target of the relation.

Returns: true if the relationship is added.

◆ get_accessible_child()

Glib::RefPtr<Atk::Object> Atk::Object::get_accessible_child ( int i )

Gets a reference to the specified accessible child of the object.

The accessible children are 0-based so the first accessible child is at index 0, the second at index 1 and so on.

Parameters

i	A `int` representing the position of the child, starting from 0.

Returns: An Atk::Object representing the specified accessible child of the accessible.

◆ get_description()

Glib::ustring Atk::Object::get_description ( ) const

Gets the accessible description of the accessible.

Returns: A character string representing the accessible description of the accessible.

◆ get_index_in_parent()

int Atk::Object::get_index_in_parent ( )

Gets the 0-based index of this accessible in its parent; returns -1 if the accessible does not have an accessible parent.

Returns: An integer which is the index of the accessible in its parent.

◆ get_n_accessible_children()

int Atk::Object::get_n_accessible_children ( ) const

Gets the number of accessible children of the accessible.

Returns: An integer representing the number of accessible children of the accessible.

◆ get_name()

Glib::ustring Atk::Object::get_name ( ) const

Gets the accessible name of the accessible.

Returns: A character string representing the accessible name of the object.

◆ get_parent()

Glib::RefPtr<Atk::Object> Atk::Object::get_parent ( )

Gets the accessible parent of the accessible.

By default this is the one assigned with set_parent(), but it is assumed that ATK implementors have ways to get the parent of the object without the need of assigning it manually with set_parent(), and will return it with this method.

If you are only interested on the parent assigned with set_parent(), use peek_parent().

Returns: An Atk::Object representing the accessible parent of the accessible.

◆ get_relation_set()

Glib::RefPtr<RelationSet> Atk::Object::get_relation_set ( )

Gets the Atk::RelationSet associated with the object.

Returns: An Atk::RelationSet representing the relation set of the object.

◆ get_role()

Role Atk::Object::get_role ( ) const

Gets the role of the accessible.

Returns: An Atk::Role which is the role of the accessible.

◆ get_state_set()

Glib::RefPtr<StateSet> Atk::Object::get_state_set ( )

Gets a reference to the state set of the accessible; the caller must unreference it when it is no longer needed.

Returns: A reference to an Atk::StateSet which is the state set of the accessible.

◆ get_type()

static GType Atk::Object::get_type ( )

static

Get the GType for this class, for use with the underlying GObject type system.

◆ notify_state_change()

void Atk::Object::notify_state_change	(	State	state,
		bool	value
	)

Emits a state-change signal for the specified state.

Note that as a general rule when the state of an existing object changes, emitting a notification is expected.

Parameters

state	An Atk::State whose state is changed.
value	A `bool` which indicates whether the state is being set on or off.

Parameters

change_index	The index of the added or removed child. The value can be -1. This is used if the value is not known by the implementor when the child is added/removed or irrelevant.
changed_child	A gpointer to the child AtkObject which was added or removed. If the child was removed, it is possible that it is not available for the implementor. In that case this pointer can be `nullptr`.

◆ signal_focus_event()

Glib::SignalProxy<void(bool)> Atk::Object::signal_focus_event ( )

Slot Prototype:: void on_my_focus_event(bool focus_in)

Flags: Run Last

The signal "focus-event" is emitted when an object gained or lost focus.

Deprecated: 2.9.4: Use the Atk::Object::signal_state_change() signal instead.

Parameters

focus_in A boolean value which indicates whether the object gained or lost focus.

◆ signal_property_change()

Glib::SignalProxyDetailed<void(AtkPropertyValues*)> Atk::Object::signal_property_change ( const Glib::ustring & property_name = Glib::ustring() )

Slot Prototype:: void on_my_property_change(AtkPropertyValues* values)

Flags: Run Last

The signal "property-change" is emitted when an object's property value changes. values contains an Atk::PropertyValues with the name and the new value of the property whose value has changed. Note that, as with GObject notify, getting this signal does not guarantee that the value of the property has actually changed; it may also be emitted when the setter of the property is called to reinstate the previous value.

Toolkit implementor note: ATK implementors should use Glib::object_notify() to emit property-changed notifications. Atk::Object::signal_property_changed() is needed by the implementation of atk_add_global_event_listener() because GObject notify doesn't support emission hooks.

Parameters

values An Atk::PropertyValues containing the new value of the property which changed.

◆ signal_state_change()

Glib::SignalProxyDetailed<void(const Glib::ustring&, bool)> Atk::Object::signal_state_change ( const Glib::ustring & state_name = Glib::ustring() )

Slot Prototype:: void on_my_state_change(const Glib::ustring& name, bool state_set)

Flags: Run Last

The "state-change" signal is emitted when an object's state changes. The detail value identifies the state type which has changed.

Parameters

name	The name of the state which has changed.
state_set	A boolean which indicates whether the state has been set or unset.

◆ signal_visible_data_changed()

Glib::SignalProxy<void()> Atk::Object::signal_visible_data_changed ( )

Slot Prototype:: void on_my_visible_data_changed()

Flags: Run Last

The "visible-data-changed" signal is emitted when the visual appearance of the object changed.

Parameters

object	The C instance.
take_copy	False if the result should take ownership of the C instance. True if it should take a new copy or ref.

Returns: A C++ instance that wraps this C instance.
