GObjectsignal_emit_by_name
Declaration [src]
void
g_signal_emit_by_name (

)
Description [src]
Emits a signal. Signal emission is done synchronously. The method will only return control after all handlers are called or signal emission was stopped.
Note that g_signal_emit_by_name() resets the return value to the default
if no handlers are connected, in contrast to g_signal_emitv().
This function is not directly available to language bindings.
