Learn more about bidirectional Unicode characters
And fill it in by default with () in the macro to prevent existing code from failing to compile.
And keep the existing ones on ObjectExt as wrappers around ObjectClass
The object is destroyed already at that time
It is potentially unsafe as the object is not fully initialized yet and especially does not have its private struct created yet (we just do exactly that here!). It's better to use Object::constructed() for any initialization.
And add a test for properties
That way the users of the API don't have to cast.

Global comments while I'm reviewing: can you add punctuation on your (doc) comments please? A lot of them are missing a dot at the end. |

For an example see the unit test in
src/subclass/object.rsat the bottom: https://github.com/sdroege/glib-rs/blob/3eee4c7da6e6947efa4c1970d7d36e17cbfca577/src/subclass/object.rs#L288-L379 . Another example can be found here gtk-rs/examples#205 (https://github.com/gtk-rs/examples/blob/4cf46ec7a6409b92ed726eaec74d4d983c84e386/src/bin/listbox_model.rs#L251-L401)This is a complete rewrite of
gobject-subclassto be more flexible, lightweight, simple and to be usable with gnome-class too.I have a WIP port of
gst-plugin-rsfor this (need to migrate all the code to the bindings first) and it all works well.I also have a minimal change to gir (gtk-rs/gir#669) to add the Rust class type to the
glib_wrapper!macro, which should be merged first. And then gtk-rs/gir#604 can be updated to actually generate quite a bit of the boilerplate code.This is now part of the proper bindings instead of an external crate because otherwise the API can't be made as nice as it is now due to not being able to implement traits for types defined in other crates, and generally more traits for marking all the relationships are needed.
