Speaking of gtkmm, gobject-introspection isn't that interesting as C++
is no dynamic language. It might be used to automate some of the binding
generation in the future but C++ often has features that lead to
improved APIs that differ significantly from the C API so there is no
real mapping between the two.
Still the C++ bindings are usually in a good shape and that doesn't
depend on introspection in any way.

Johannes
