## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Gtk::RecentInfo::RecentInfo | ( |  | ) | `[protected]`

## Member Function Documentation

bool Gtk::RecentInfo::equal | ( | const RecentInfo& | other | ) | const

Referenced by operator!=(), and operator==().

bool Gtk::RecentInfo::exists | ( |  | ) | const

Checks whether the resource pointed by info still exists.

At the moment this check is done only on resources pointing to local files.

Returns:
  `true` if the resource exists

Since gtkmm 2.10:

time_t Gtk::RecentInfo::get_added | ( |  | ) | const

Gets the timestamp (seconds from system's Epoch) when the resource was added to the recently used resources list.

Returns:
  The number of seconds elapsed from system's Epoch when the resource was added to the list, or -1 on failure.

Since gtkmm 2.10:

int Gtk::RecentInfo::get_age | ( |  | ) | const

Gets the number of days elapsed since the last update of the resource pointed by info.

Returns:
  A positive integer containing the number of days elapsed since the time this resource was last modified.

Since gtkmm 2.10:

bool Gtk::RecentInfo::get_application_info | ( | const Glib::ustring & | app_name,
|  | Glib::StringArrayHandle & | app_exec,
|  | guint & | count,
|  | time_t & | time |
| ) |  |  | const

Gets the data regarding the application that has registered the resource pointed by info.

If the command line contains any escape characters defined inside the storage specification, they will be expanded.

Parameters:

  | app_name | The name of the application that has registered this item.
  | app_exec | Return location for the string containing the command line.
  | count | Return location for the number of times this item was registered.
  | time | Return location for the timestamp this item was last registered for this application.

Returns:
  `true` if an application with app_name has registered this resource inside the recently used list, or `false` otherwise. You should free the returned command line using Glib::free().

Since gtkmm 2.10:

Glib::StringArrayHandle Gtk::RecentInfo::get_applications | ( |  | ) | const

Glib::ustring Gtk::RecentInfo::get_description | ( |  | ) | const

Gets the (short) description of the resource.

Returns:
  The description of the resource. The returned string is owned by the recent manager, and should not be freed.

Since gtkmm 2.10:

Glib::ustring Gtk::RecentInfo::get_display_name | ( |  | ) | const

Gets the name of the resource.

If none has been defined, the basename of the resource is obtained.

Returns:
  The display name of the resource. The returned string is owned by the recent manager, and should not be freed.

Since gtkmm 2.10:

Glib::StringArrayHandle Gtk::RecentInfo::get_groups | ( |  | ) | const

Glib::RefPtr<const Gdk::Pixbuf> Gtk::RecentInfo::get_icon | ( | int | size | ) | const

Retrieves the icon of size size associated to the resource MIME type.

Parameters:

  | size | The size of the icon in pixels.

Returns:
  A Gdk::Pixbuf containing the icon, or `0`. Use Glib::object_unref() when finished using the icon.

Since gtkmm 2.10:

Glib::RefPtr<Gdk::Pixbuf> Gtk::RecentInfo::get_icon | ( | int | size | ) |

Retrieves the icon of size size associated to the resource MIME type.

Parameters:

  | size | The size of the icon in pixels.

Returns:
  A Gdk::Pixbuf containing the icon, or `0`. Use Glib::object_unref() when finished using the icon.
