Description

The GHookList, GHook and their related functions provide support for lists of hook functions. Functions can be added and removed from the lists, and the list of hook functions can be invoked.

                                             gboolean may_be_in_call);

Returns the next GHook in a GHookList which has not been destroyed. The reference count for the GHook is incremented, so you must call g_hook_unref() to restore it when no longer needed. (Or continue to call g_hook_next_valid() until NULL is returned.)

hook_list :a GHookList.
hook :the current GHook.
may_be_in_call :TRUE if hooks which are currently running (e.g. in another thread) are considered valid. If set to FALSE, these are skipped.
Returns :the next valid GHook, or NULL if none are valid.


enum GHookFlagMask

typedef enum
{
  G_HOOK_FLAG_ACTIVE	= 1 << 0,
  G_HOOK_FLAG_IN_CALL	= 1 << 1,
  G_HOOK_FLAG_MASK	= 0x0f
} GHookFlagMask;


G_HOOK_FLAG_USER_SHIFT

#define G_HOOK_FLAG_USER_SHIFT	(4)


G_HOOK_IS_VALID()

#define     G_HOOK_IS_VALID(hook)

Returns TRUE if the GHook is valid, i.e. it is in a GHookList, it is active and it has not been destroyed.

hook :a GHook.
Returns :TRUE if the GHook is valid.


G_HOOK_ACTIVE()

#define     G_HOOK_ACTIVE(hook)

Returns TRUE if the GHook is active, which is normally TRUE until the GHook is destroyed.

hook :a GHook.
Returns :TRUE if the GHook is active.


G_HOOK_IN_CALL()

#define     G_HOOK_IN_CALL(hook)

Returns TRUE if the GHook function is currently executing.

hook :a GHook.
Returns :TRUE if the GHook function is currently executing.


G_HOOK_IS_UNLINKED()

#define     G_HOOK_IS_UNLINKED(hook)

Returns TRUE if the GHook is not in a GHookList.

hook :a GHook.
Returns :TRUE if the GHook is not in a GHookList.


g_hook_ref ()

void        g_hook_ref                      (GHookList *hook_list,
                                             GHook *hook);

Increments the reference count for a GHook.

hook_list :a GHookList.
hook :the GHook to increment the reference count of.


g_hook_unref ()

void        g_hook_unref                    (GHookList *hook_list,
                                             GHook *hook);

Decrements the reference count of a GHook. If the reference count falls to 0, the GHook is removed from the GHookList and g_hook_free() is called to free it.

hook_list :a GHookList.
hook : 


g_hook_free ()

void        g_hook_free                     (GHookList *hook_list,
                                             GHook *hook);

Calls the GHookList hook_free function if it exists, and frees the memory allocated for the GHook.

hook_list :a GHookList.
hook :the GHook to free.


g_hook_destroy ()

gboolean    g_hook_destroy                  (GHookList *hook_list,
                                             guint hook_id);

Destroys a GHook, given its ID.

hook_list :a GHookList.
hook_id :a hook ID.
Returns :TRUE if the GHook was found in the GHookList and destroyed.


g_hook_destroy_link ()

void        g_hook_destroy_link             (GHookList *hook_list,
                                             GHook *hook);

Removes one GHook from a GHookList, calling the hook_destroy function in the GHookList, and the destroy function of the GHook, if they exist.

hook_list :a GHookList.
hook :the GHook to remove.
