Gtk2::P...FontFace(3)
β¨ NAME β¨
okay so bestie, gather round π this page is Gtk2::P...FontFace β it's a backwards compatibility wrapper for Pango::FontFace, and that's literally the whole plot. it's from the User Contributed Perl Documentation, so you already know it's giving "community-sourced, lovingly hand-me-down" energy π«Ά
π DESCRIPTION π
so here's the tea, and it's actually kind of iconic ββ¨
As of Gtk2 1.220, the pango bindings are provided by the standalone Pango module. periodt. that's the whole glow-up.
This namespace β Gtk2::Pango::FontFace β exists purely for backwards compatibility π¦ so all your old code that still reaches for the Gtk2-era name doesn't just β¨breakβ¨ and ruin your entire week. it's a little nostalgia portal, no cap.
The relevant documentation moved to Pango and is linked to below π (scroll to SEE ALSO, bestie, i gotchu).
ngl this module is basically the "we kept your old hoodie in the back of the closet" of Perl namespaces. it's not new, it's not shiny, but it still fits π
πΈ HIERARCHY πΈ
the family tree goes like this:
Glib::Object
+----Gtk2::Pango::FontFace
so Gtk2::Pango::FontFace is a child of Glib::Object, standing on its ancestor's shoulders like the main character it is ππ
