perl-Gnome2-GConf-1.44.0-7.mga1.i586.rpm

#!/usr/bin/perl

# This program demonstrates how to use GConf.  The key thing is that
# the main window and the prefs dialog have NO KNOWLEDGE of one
# another as far as configuration values are concerned; they don't
# even have to be in the same process. That is, the GConfClient acts
# as the data "model" for configuration information; the main
# application is a "view" of the model; and the prefs dialog is a
# "controller."
#
# You can tell if your application has done this correctly by
# using "gconftool" instead of your preferences dialog to set
# preferences. For example:
# 
# gconftool --type=string --set /apps/basic-gconf-app/foo "My string"
# 
# If that doesn't work every bit as well as setting the value
# via the prefs dialog, then you aren't doing things right. ;-)
#
#
# If you really want to be mean to your app, make it survive
# this:
# 
# gconftool --break-key /apps/basic-gconf-app/foo
# 
# Remember, the GConf database is just like an external file or
# the network - it may have bogus values in it. GConf admin
# tools will let people put in whatever they can think of.
# 
# GConf does guarantee that string values will be valid UTF-8, for
# convenience.
# 

# Throughout, this program is letting GConfClient use its default
# error handlers rather than checking for errors or attaching custom
# handlers to the "unreturned_error" signal. Thus the last arg to
# GConfClient functions is None.
#

# Special mention of an idiom often used in GTK+ apps that does
# not work right with GConf but may appear to at first:
#
# i_am_changing_value = gtk.TRUE
# change_value (value)
# i_am_changing_value = gtk.FALSE
# 
# This breaks for several reasons: notification of changes
# may be asynchronous, you may get notifications that are not
# caused by change_value () while change_value () is running,
# since GConf will enter the main loop, and also if you need
# this code to work you are probably going to have issues
# when someone other than yourself sets the value.
# 
# A robust solution in this case is often to compare the old
# and new values to see if they've really changed, thus avoiding
# whatever loop you were trying to avoid.
#

# The code is a direct mapping (with some perlisms) of the C
# code; where the code diverge, I placed a comment. (ebassi)
