Detail
RecentManager
provides a facility for adding, removing and looking up
recently used files. Each recently used file is identified by its URI, and
has meta-data associated to it, like the names and command lines of the
applications that have registered it, the number of time each application
has registered the same file, the mime type of the file and whether the file
should be displayed only by the applications that have registered it.
The RecentManager
acts like a database of all the recently used files.
You can create new RecentManager
objects, but it is more efficient to use
the standard recent manager for the Screen
so that informations about the
recently used files is shared with other people using them. In case the
default screen is being used, adding a new recently used file is as simple
as:
Recently used files are supported since Gtk+ 2.10.

Types
data RecentManager Source
castToRecentManager :: GObjectClass obj => obj -> RecentManagerSource
toRecentManager :: RecentManagerClass o => o -> RecentManagerSource
Constructors
recentManagerNew :: IO RecentManagerSource
Creates a new recent manager object. Recent manager objects are used to
handle the list of recently used resources. A RecentManager
object
monitors the recently used resources list, and emits the "changed" signal
each time something inside the list changes.

Methods
:: IO RecentManager | returns A unique |
Gets a unique instance of RecentManager
.
- Available since Gtk+ version 2.10
:: RecentManagerClass self | |
=> self | |
-> String |
|
-> IO Bool | returns |
Adds a new resource, pointed by uri
, into the recently used resources
list.
This function automatically retrieves some of the needed metadata and
setting other metadata to common default values; it then feeds the data to
recentManagerAddFull
.
See recentManagerAddFull
if you want to explicitly define the metadata
for the resource pointed by uri
.
- Available since Gtk+ version 2.10
:: RecentManagerClass self | |
=> self | |
-> String |
|
-> IO Bool | returns |
Removes a resource pointed by uri
from the recently used resources list
handled by a recent manager.
- Available since Gtk+ version 2.10
:: RecentManagerClass self | |
=> self | |
-> String |
|
-> IO RecentInfo | returns a |
Searches for a URI inside the recently used resources list, and returns a structure containing informations about the resource like its MIME type, or its display name.
- Available since Gtk+ version 2.10
:: RecentManagerClass self | |
=> self | |
-> String |
|
-> IO Bool | returns |
Checks whether there is a recently used resource registered with uri
inside the recent manager.
- Available since Gtk+ version 2.10
:: RecentManagerClass self | |
=> self | |
-> String |
|
-> String |
|
-> IO Bool | returns |
Changes the location of a recently used resource from uri
to newUri
.
Please note that this function will not affect the resource pointed by the URIs, but only the URI used in the recently used resources list.
- Available since Gtk+ version 2.10
:: RecentManagerClass self | |
=> self | |
-> IO [RecentInfo] | returns a list of newly allocated
|
Gets the list of recently used resources.
- Available since Gtk+ version 2.10
:: RecentManagerClass self | |
=> self | |
-> IO Int | returns the number of items that have been removed from the recently used resources list. |
Purges every item from the recently used resources list.
- Available since Gtk+ version 2.10

function.

- Available since Gtk+ version 2.10
recentManagerSize :: RecentManagerClass self => ReadAttr self IntSource
