ActionGroupT.getActionStateType

Queries the type of the state of the named action within @action_group.

If the action is stateful then this function returns the #GVariantType of the state. All calls to g_action_group_change_action_state() must give a #GVariant of this type and g_action_group_get_action_state() will return a #GVariant of the same type.

If the action is not stateful then this function will return %NULL. In that case, g_action_group_get_action_state() will return %NULL and you must not call g_action_group_change_action_state().

The state type of a particular action will never change but it is possible for an action to be removed and for a new action to be added with the same name but a different state type.
