Gtk2::T...gSource(3)

💖 Gtk2::TreeDragSource — okay bestie, let's talk drag sources ✨

So this page is Gtk2::T...gSource(3) from the User Contributed Perl Documentation, and the thing it's actually about is Gtk2::TreeDragSource — a lil wrapper for GtkTreeDragSource. 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

Gtk2::TreeDragSource — wrapper for GtkTreeDragSource

Like. It's the drag source. The one doing the dragging. Main character energy fr. 💅

---

🌸 HIERARCHY 🌸

Glib::Interface
+----Gtk2::TreeDragSource

So it's a Glib::Interface at the top, and Gtk2::TreeDragSource hangs off it. It's giving "descended from greatness". 👑

🦋 METHODS 🦋

💜 boolean = $drag_source->drag_data_delete ($path)

• $path — a Gtk2::TreePath. That's it, that's the whole argument. 💫

💜 selection_data = $drag_source->drag_data_get ($path, $selection_data)

• $path — a Gtk2::TreePath. 🩷
• $selection_data — a Gtk2::SelectionData. 🩷

okay so this one actually does the thing: it gets selection data from a drag source, no cap. The data gets written to $selection_data… unless you didn't pass $selection_data, in which case it goes into a brand-new Gtk2::SelectionData object with target type "GTK_TREE_MODEL_ROW". ✨

And on success? The return is the given or new object — whichever one we ended up with. On failure? The return is undef. 😭 Not me getting undef back and having a whole crisis. Check your returns, bestie.

💜 boolean = $drag_source->row_draggable ($path)

• $path — a Gtk2::TreePath. 🌈
