#define G_OS_WIN32
This macro is defined only on Windows. So you can bracket Windows-specific code in "#ifdef G_OS_WIN32".
#define G_OS_BEOS
This macro is defined only on BeOS. So you can bracket BeOS-specific code in "#ifdef G_OS_BEOS".
#define G_OS_UNIX
This macro is defined only on UNIX. So you can bracket UNIX-specific code in "#ifdef G_OS_UNIX".
#define G_DIR_SEPARATOR
The directory separator character. This is '/' on UNIX machines and '\' under Windows.
#define G_DIR_SEPARATOR_S
The directory separator as a string. This is "/" on UNIX machines and "\" under Windows.
#define G_IS_DIR_SEPARATOR(c)
Checks whether a character is a directory
separator. It returns TRUE
for '/' on UNIX
machines and for '\' or '/' under Windows.
|
a character |
Since 2.6
#define G_SEARCHPATH_SEPARATOR
The search path separator character. This is ':' on UNIX machines and ';' under Windows.
#define G_SEARCHPATH_SEPARATOR_S
The search path separator as a string. This is ":" on UNIX machines and ";" under Windows.
#define MIN(a, b) (((a) < (b)) ? (a) : (b))
Calculates the minimum of a
and b
.
|
a numeric value. |
|
a numeric value. |
Returns : |
the minimum of a and b .
|
#define MAX(a, b) (((a) > (b)) ? (a) : (b))
Calculates the maximum of a
and b
.
|
a numeric value. |
|
a numeric value. |
Returns : |
the maximum of a and b .
|
#define ABS(a) (((a) < 0) ? -(a) : (a))
Calculates the absolute value of a
.
The absolute value is simply the number with any negative sign taken away.
For example,
ABS(-10) is 10.
ABS(10) is also 10.
|
a numeric value. |
Returns : |
the absolute value of a .
|
#define CLAMP(x, low, high) (((x) > (high)) ? (high) : (((x) < (low)) ? (low) : (x)))
Ensures that x
is between the limits set by low
and high
. If low
is
greater than high
the result is undefined.
For example,
CLAMP(5, 10, 15) is 10.
CLAMP(15, 5, 10) is 10.
CLAMP(20, 15, 25) is 20.
|
the value to clamp. |
|
the minimum value allowed. |
|
the maximum value allowed. |
Returns : |
the value of x clamped to the range between low and high .
|
#define G_STRUCT_MEMBER(member_type, struct_p, struct_offset)
Returns a member of a structure at a given offset, using the given type.
|
the type of the struct field. |
|
a pointer to a struct. |
|
the offset of the field from the start of the struct, in bytes. |
Returns : |
the struct member. |
#define G_STRUCT_MEMBER_P(struct_p, struct_offset)
Returns an untyped pointer to a given offset of a struct.
|
a pointer to a struct. |
|
the offset from the start of the struct, in bytes. |
Returns : |
an untyped pointer to struct_p plus struct_offset bytes.
|
#define G_STRUCT_OFFSET(struct_type, member)
Returns the offset, in bytes, of a member of a struct.
|
a structure type, e.g. GtkWidget. |
|
a field in the structure, e.g. window .
|
Returns : |
the offset of member from the start of struct_type .
|
#define G_MEM_ALIGN
Indicates the number of bytes to which memory will be aligned on the current platform.
#define G_CONST_RETURN
If G_DISABLE_CONST_RETURNS
is defined, this macro expands to nothing.
By default, the macro expands to const
. The macro
should be used in place of const
for functions that
return a value that should not be modified. The purpose of this macro is
to allow us to turn on const
for returned constant
strings by default, while allowing programmers who find that annoying to
turn it off. This macro should only be used for return values and for
out parameters, it doesn't make sense for
in parameters.
