Re: TextBuffer tags



Gtk::TextBuffer::serialize() and deserialize() are useful. They don't save anything, but they convert to and from a byte string that you can store in a file. Those methods were added to gtkmm in version 3.15.9. The corresponding gtk+ methods have existed much longer.

If you wonder why serialize() does not return a Glib::ustring or std::string, see https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=694250#c2

Is there a build-in way to save a TextBuffer (text content, tag definitions, where tags have been applied, marks, etc.), or do I have to roll my own?
