Description

Details

enum NADataType

typedef enum {
	NA_DATA_TYPE_BOOLEAN = 1,
	NA_DATA_TYPE_POINTER,
	NA_DATA_TYPE_STRING,
	NA_DATA_TYPE_STRING_LIST,
	NA_DATA_TYPE_LOCALE_STRING,
	NA_DATA_TYPE_UINT,
	NA_DATA_TYPE_UINT_LIST,
} NADataType;

Each elementary data which would take advantage of NABoxed facilities should be typed at instanciation time.

NAIFactoryProvider implementations should provide a primitive for reading (resp. writing) a value for each of these elementary data types.

Note

Please note that this enumeration may be compiled in by the extensions. They must so remain fixed, unless you are prepared to see strange effects (e.g. an extension has been compiled with NA_DATA_TYPE_STRING = 2, while you have inserted another element, making it to 3 !) - or you know what you are doing...

So, only add new items at the end of the enum. You have been warned!

NA_DATA_TYPE_BOOLEAN

a boolean can be initialized with "true" or "false" (case insensitive)

NA_DATA_TYPE_POINTER

a ( void * ) pointer

NA_DATA_TYPE_STRING

an ASCII string

NA_DATA_TYPE_STRING_LIST

a list of ASCII strings

NA_DATA_TYPE_LOCALE_STRING

a localized UTF-8 string

NA_DATA_TYPE_UINT

an unsigned integer

NA_DATA_TYPE_UINT_LIST

a list of unsigned integers

na_data_types_get_mateconf_dump_key ()

const gchar *       na_data_types_get_mateconf_dump_key    (guint type);

type :

the FactoryData type.

Returns :

the MateConf key suitable for this type. The returned key is owned by the factory data management system, and should not be released by the caller.
