Re: Gtk::Builder::get_widget_derived() Issue on Fedora 33



Is this a Gtkmm issue then? Fedora guys also think that it is an upstream issue. See:https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1898054
But why does it only occur on Fedora 33?

@Andrew, I do not know how I am supposed to use g_type_ensure(TVDerived::get_type()). I am not familiar with Gtk+ or GObject, I have only used Gtkmm, so far.

I think the cause is the G_GNUC_CONST annotation on TextView::get_type().

When I step through the code on Fedora 33, in Gtk::wrap_init, all the wrap_registers happen, but the function just returns, skipping the calls to e.g. TextView::get_type()

Ahmet can use g_type_ensure(TVDerived::get_type()) rather than default constructing the class.

I think the best fix would be to wrap all the GtkFoo::get_type() calls in Gtk::wrap_init with g_type_ensure. See https://blogs.gnome.org/mcatanzaro/2015/09/14/your-_get_type-function-is-not-g_gnuc_const/

Hi Kjell,

Thank you for the response. I tried your suggestion and the outputs were exactly as you guessed. So, this seems like a Fedora specific issue. I will be filing a bug report there.

The issue does not occur on Ubuntu 20.04 with the latest gtk+3 and
gtkmm3 from the git repo.

It looks as if the gtkmm__GtkTextView class has not been registered in
the GType system before get_widget_derived() is called. That should have
been done by Gtk::wrap_init() which is called from
Gtk::Application::create().

You can test if I'm right. Add
    std::cout << "GType name: " <<
G_OBJECT_TYPE_NAME(m_TextView->gobj()) << std::endl;
after the call to get_widget_derived(). When the overloaded function is
not called, I suspect that the output will be
    GType name: GtkTextView
When you've uncommented TVDerived dummy;, and everything is okay, the
output is probably
   GType name: gtkmm__GtkTextView

If I'm right, it looks like a Fedora specific issue. It can't be due to
a recent update in gtkmm (I've tested with the very latest one), unless
there is some Fedora specific update.
