Re: Default signal handlers

[אנטולי קרס נר <tombackton gmail com>]

I know, but I want to have default handlers using pure libsigc++ which
behave like gtkmm. Currently my implementation calls the virtual
methods, and these emit the signals, so overriding them works more or
less like overriding in gtkmm: the derived class is the only handler of
the signal.

The question is: Does this technique result in behavior similar to the
behavior of gtkmm?
