=head2 GObject

To deal with the intricate interaction of the different reference-counting semantics of Perl objects versus GObjects, the bindings create a combined PerlObject+GObject, with the GObject's pointer in magic attached to the Perl object, and the Perl object's pointer in the GObject's user data.  Thus it's not really a "wrapper", but we refer to it as one, because "combined Perl object + GObject" is a cumbersome and confusing mouthful.

GObjects are represented as blessed hash references.  The GObject user data mechanism is not typesafe, and thus is used only for unsigned integer values; the Perl-level hash is available for any type of user data.  The combined nature of the wrapper means that data stored in the hash will stick around as long as the object is alive.

Since the C pointer is stored in attached magic, the C pointer is not available to the Perl developer via the hash object, so there's no need to worry about breaking it from perl.

Propers go to Marc Lehmann for dreaming most of this up.

=item void gperl_register_sink_func (GType gtype, GPerlObjectSinkFunc func)

Tell gperl_new_object() to use I<func> to claim ownership of objects derived
from I<gtype>.

gperl_new_object() always refs a GObject when wrapping it for the first time.
To have the Perl wrapper claim ownership of a GObject as part of
gperl_new_object(), you unref the object after ref'ing it. however, different
GObject subclasses have different ways to claim ownership; for example,
GtkObject simply requires you to call gtk_object_sink().  To make this concept
generic, this function allows you to register a function to be called when then
wrapper should claim ownership of the object.  The I<func> registered for a
given I<type> will be called on any object for which C<< g_type_isa
(G_TYPE_OBJECT (object), type) >> succeeds.

If no sinkfunc is found for an object, g_object_unref() will be used.

Even though GObjects don't need sink funcs, we need to have them in Glib
as a hook for upstream objects.  If we create a GtkObject (or any
other type of object which uses a different way to claim ownership) via
Glib::Object->new, any upstream wrappers, such as gtk2perl_new_object(), will
B<not> be called.  Having a sink func facility down here enables us always to
do the right thing.

how's that for a long and supposedly self-documenting function name!
(sorry...).   basically, it does just as it says -- if I<nowarn> is true, 
do not spew a warning if a GType derived from I<gtype> is not registered
with the bindings' type system.  this is important for things like
GtkStyles (unregistered subclasses come from theme engines) and GdkGCs
(unregistered subclasses come from various gdk backends) for which it's not
possible or practical to force the registration of the classes.  in
general, we want to warn about the unregistered types because it may mean
that a developer has forgotten something.

=item SV * gperl_new_object (GObject * object, gboolean own)

Use this function to get the perl part of a GObject.  If I<object>
has never been seen by perl before, a new, empty perl object will
be created and added to a private key under I<object>'s qdata.  If
I<object> already has a perl part, a new reference to it will be
created. The gobject + perl object together form a combined object that
is properly refcounted, i.e. both parts will stay alive as long as at
least one of them is alive, and only when both perl object and gobject are
no longer referenced will both be freed.

The perl object will be blessed into the package corresponding to the GType
returned by calling G_OBJECT_TYPE() on I<object>; if that class has not
been registered via gperl_register_object(), this function will emit a
warning to that effect (with warn()), and attempt to bless it into the
first known class in the object's ancestry.  Since Glib::Object is
already registered, you'll get a Glib::Object if you are lazy, and thus
this function can fail only if I<object> isn't descended from GObject,
in which case it croaks.  (In reality, if you pass a non-GObject to this
function, you'll be lucky if you don't get a segfault, as there's not
really a way to trap that.)  In practice these warnings can be unavoidable,
so you can use gperl_object_set_no_warn_unreg_subclass() to quell them
on a class-by-class basis.

However, when perl code is calling a GObject constructor (any function
which returns a new GObject), call gperl_new_object() with I<own> set to
%TRUE; this will cause the first matching sink function to be called
on the GObject to claim ownership of that object, so that it will be
destroyed when the perl object goes out of scope. The default sink func
is g_object_unref(); other types should supply the proper function;
e.g., GtkObject should use gtk_object_sink() here.

Returns the blessed perl object, or #&PL_sv_undef if object was #NULL.

Instantiate a Glib::Object of type I<$class>.  Any key/value pairs in
I<...> are used to set properties on the new object; see C<set>.
This is designed to be inherited by Perl-derived subclasses (see
L<Glib::Object::Subclass>), but you can actually use it to create
any GObject-derived type.

GObject provides an arbitrary data mechanism that assigns unsigned integers
to key names.  Functionality overlaps with the hash used as the Perl object
instance, so we strongly recommend you use hash keys for your data storage.
The GObject data values cannot store type information, so they are not safe
to use for anything but integer values, and you really should use this method
only if you know what you are doing.

Create a Perl Glib::Object reference for the C object pointed to by I<$pointer>.
You should need this I<very> rarely; it's intended to support foreign objects.

NOTE: the cast from arbitrary integer to GObject may result in a core dump without
warning, because the type-checking macro G_OBJECT() attempts to dereference the
pointer to find a GTypeClass structure, and there is no portable way to validate
the pointer.

=for arg all if FALSE (or omitted) tie only properties for this object's class, if TRUE tie the properties of this and all parent classes.

A special method avaiable to Glib::Object derivatives, it uses perl's tie
facilities to associate hash keys with the properties of the object. For
example:

  $button->tie_properties;
  # equivilent to $button->set (label => 'Hello World');
  $button->{label} = 'Hello World';
  print "the label is: ".$button->{label}."\n";

Attempts to write to read-only properties will croak, reading a write-only
property will return '[write-only]'.

Care must be taken when using tie_properties with objects of types created with
Glib::Object::Subclass as there may be clashes with existing hash keys that
could cause infinite loops. The solution is to use custom property get/set
functions to alter the storage locations of the properties.
