Description

GValue provides an abstract container structure which can be copied, transformed and compared while holding a value of any (derived) type, which is registered as a GType with a GTypeValueTable in its GTypeInfo structure. Parameter specifications for most value types can be created as GParamSpec derived instances, to implement e.g. GObject properties which operate on GValue containers.

GParamSpecOverride

typedef struct {
} GParamSpecOverride;

This is a type of GParamSpec type that simply redirects operations to another paramspec. All operations other than getting or setting the value are redirected, including accessing the nick and blurb, validating a value, and so forth. See g_param_spec_get_redirect_target() for retrieving the overidden property. GParamSpecOverride is used in implementing g_object_class_override_property(), and will not be directly useful unless you are implementing a new base type similar to GObject.

Since 2.4
