Crate gtypes [−] [src]
Fundamental types for GLib and GObject introspection.
This crate provides definitions for types that are intrinsic in GObject introspection, unlike all other types that have a definition in a GIR file. All crates generated from GObject introspection data should use these shared definitions.
Some types are omitted because a suitable equivalent is readily available in Rust:
- Fixed-size integer types. These have straightforward built-in counterparts in Rust.
- Strings can have GI types
utf8
orfilename
. In the FFI all string values are represented as raw pointers togchar
. A safe representation of C strings in idiomatic Rust bindings needs some wrapper types which are not defined here.
