Value arrays
A container structure to maintain an array of generic values
The prime purpose of a #GValueArray is for it to be used as an object property
that holds an array of values. A #GValueArray wraps an array of #GValue elements
in order for it to be used as a boxed type through %G_TYPE_VALUE_ARRAY.
#GValue, #GParamSpecValueArray, g_param_spec_value_array()
@n_values: number of values contained in the array
@values: array of values
Return a pointer to the value at @index_ containd in @value_array.
@value_array: #GValueArray to get a value from
@index_: index of the value of interest
@Returns: pointer to a value at @index_ in @value_array
Allocate and initialize a new #GValueArray, optionally preserve space
for @n_prealloced elements. New arrays always contain 0 elements,
regardless of the value of @n_prealloced.
@n_prealloced: number of values to preallocate space for
@Returns: a newly allocated #GValueArray with 0 values
Construct an exact copy of a #GValueArray by duplicating all its
contents.
@value_array: #GValueArray to copy
@Returns: Newly allocated copy of #GValueArray
Free a #GValueArray including its contents.
@value_array:
Insert a copy of @value as last element of @value_array.
@value_array: #GValueArray to add an element to
@value: #GValue to copy into #GValueArray
@Returns: the #GValueArray passed in as @value_array
Insert a copy of @value as first element of @value_array.
@value_array: #GValueArray to add an element to
@value: #GValue to copy into #GValueArray
@Returns: the #GValueArray passed in as @value_array
Insert a copy of @value at specified position into @value_array.
@value_array: #GValueArray to add an element to
@index_: insertion position, must be <= value_array->n_values
@value: #GValue to copy into #GValueArray
@Returns: the #GValueArray passed in as @value_array
Remove the value at position @index_ from @value_array.
@value_array: #GValueArray to remove an element from
@index_: position of value to remove, must be < value_array->n_values
@Returns: the #GValueArray passed in as @value_array
Sort @value_array using @compare_func to compare the elements accoring to
the semantics of #GCompareFunc.
The current implementation uses Quick-Sort as sorting algorithm.
@value_array: #GValueArray to sort
@compare_func: function to compare elements
@Returns: the #GValueArray passed in as @value_array
Sort @value_array using @compare_func to compare the elements accoring
to the semantics of #GCompareDataFunc.
The current implementation uses Quick-Sort as sorting algorithm.
@value_array: #GValueArray to sort
@compare_func: function to compare elements
@user_data: extra data argument provided for @compare_func
@Returns: the #GValueArray passed in as @value_array
