💖 Gtk2::VScrollbar — bestie edition 💖

okay so you're reading the Gtk2::VScrollbar(3) page, from the User Contributed Perl Documentation collection, and honestly? it's a short one, so let's just vibe through it together 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

Gtk2::VScrollbar — it's a wrapper for GtkVScrollbar. that's it. that's the whole thing. a little shim, a little bestie, a little icon 👑

🌸 HIERARCHY 🌸

so here's the family tree, and yes we're doing the whole ancestry moment, no skipping generations:

  Glib::Object
  +----Glib::InitiallyUnowned
       +----Gtk2::Object
            +----Gtk2::Widget
                 +----Gtk2::Range
                      +----Gtk2::Scrollbar
                           +----Gtk2::VScrollbar

like... the way Gtk2::VScrollbar is a Gtk2::Scrollbar is a Gtk2::Range is a Gtk2::Widget is a Gtk2::Object is a Glib::InitiallyUnowned is a Glib::Object?? generational wealth, fr fr 💅

🦋 INTERFACES 🦋

these are the interfaces it implements, periodt:

  Glib::Object::_Unregistered::AtkImplementorIface
  Gtk2::Buildable
  Gtk2::Orientable

look at her. buildable. orientable. multi-talented. main character energy only 💜

🎀 METHODS 🎀

✨ widget = Gtk2::VScrollbar->new ($adjustment=undef)

  • $adjustment — a Gtk2::Adjustment, or undef if you're feeling mysterious 🌈

✨ widget = Gtk2::VScrollBar->new ($adjustment=undef)

  • $adjustment — a Gtk2::Adjustment, or undef, same deal, same energy 💖
not me explaining the capital B... 😭 so basically, a typo in days long past resulted in the package names for Gtk2::VScrollbar and Gtk2::HScrollbar being misspelled with a capital "B", despite the fact that only the proper name (with the small "b") was actually registered with the Glib type system. for backward compatibility with Gtk2-1.00, Gtk2::VScrollBar->new calls Gtk2::VScrollbar->new without complaint. it's giving legacy code that refuses to die and honestly? respect 🙈
