【GTK】GtkBuilder：使用配置构建用户界面-526互联

如果全部使用C代码构建用户界面，当组件成百上千时，这将是一场灾难。因此Gtk使用xml进行配置用户界面。
示例如下：

#include <gtk/gtk.h>
#include <glib/gstdio.h>

static void
print_hello (GtkWidget *widget,
             gpointer   data)
{
  g_print ("Hello World\n");
}

static void
quit_cb (GtkWindow *window)
{
  gtk_window_close (window);
}

static void
activate (GtkApplication *app,
          gpointer        user_data)
{
  /* Construct a GtkBuilder instance and load our UI description */
  GtkBuilder *builder = gtk_builder_new ();
  gtk_builder_add_from_file (builder, "builder.ui", NULL);

  /* Connect signal handlers to the constructed widgets. */
  GObject *window = gtk_builder_get_object (builder, "window");
  gtk_window_set_application (GTK_WINDOW (window), app);

  GObject *button = gtk_builder_get_object (builder, "button1");
  g_signal_connect (button, "clicked", G_CALLBACK (print_hello), NULL);

  button = gtk_builder_get_object (builder, "button2");
  g_signal_connect (button, "clicked", G_CALLBACK (print_hello), NULL);

  button = gtk_builder_get_object (builder, "quit");
  g_signal_connect_swapped (button, "clicked", G_CALLBACK (quit_cb), window);

  gtk_widget_show (GTK_WIDGET (window));

  /* We do not need the builder any more */
  g_object_unref (builder);
}

int
main (int   argc,
      char *argv[])
{
#ifdef GTK_SRCDIR
  g_chdir (GTK_SRCDIR);
#endif

  GtkApplication *app = gtk_application_new ("org.gtk.example", G_APPLICATION_DEFAULT_FLAGS);
  g_signal_connect (app, "activate", G_CALLBACK (activate), NULL);

  int status = g_application_run (G_APPLICATION (app), argc, argv);
  g_object_unref (app);

  return status;
}

在源码路径下创建builder.ui文件，并将以下内容写入文件：

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<interface>
  <object id="window" class="GtkWindow">
    <property name="title">Grid</property>
    <child>
      <object id="grid" class="GtkGrid">
        <child>
          <object id="button1" class="GtkButton">
            <property name="label">Button 1</property>
            <layout>
              <property name="column">0</property>
              <property name="row">0</property>
            </layout>
          </object>
        </child>
        <child>
          <object id="button2" class="GtkButton">
            <property name="label">Button 2</property>
            <layout>
              <property name="column">1</property>
              <property name="row">0</property>
            </layout>
          </object>
        </child>
        <child>
          <object id="quit" class="GtkButton">
            <property name="label">Quit</property>
            <layout>
              <property name="column">0</property>
              <property name="row">1</property>
              <property name="column-span">2</property>
            </layout>
          </object>
        </child>
      </object>
    </child>
  </object>
</interface>

GtkBuilder不仅可以用于创建组件对象，还可以创建其他对象，例如树模型，调整树等。
