Asks the GtkTreeDragSource to delete the row at path, because it was moved somewhere else via drag-and-drop. Returns FALSE if the deletion fails because path no longer exists, or for some model-specific reason. Should robustly handle a path no longer found in the model!
Asks the GtkTreeDragSource to fill in selection_data with a representation of the row at path. selection_data->target gives the required type of the data. Should robustly handle a path no longer found in the model!
Asks the GtkTreeDragSource whether a particular row can be used as the source of a DND operation. If the source doesn't implement this interface, the row is assumed draggable.
Obtains a tree_model and path from selection data of target type GTK_TREE_MODEL_ROW. Normally called from a drag_data_received handler. This function can only be used if selection_data originates from the same process that's calling this function, because a pointer to the tree model is being passed around. If you aren't in the same process, then you'll get memory corruption. In the GtkTreeDragDest drag_data_received handler, you can assume that selection data of type GTK_TREE_MODEL_ROW is in from the current process. The returned path must be freed with gtk_tree_path_free().
Sets selection data of target type GTK_TREE_MODEL_ROW. Normally used in a drag_data_get handler.
the main Gtk struct
Description GTK+ supports Drag-and-Drop in tree views with a high-level and a low-level API. The low-level API consists of the GTK+ DND API, augmented by some treeview utility functions: gtk_tree_view_set_drag_dest_row(), gtk_tree_view_get_drag_dest_row(), gtk_tree_view_get_dest_row_at_pos(), gtk_tree_view_create_row_drag_icon(), gtk_tree_set_row_drag_data() and gtk_tree_get_row_drag_data(). This API leaves a lot of flexibility, but nothing is done automatically, and implementing advanced features like hover-to-open-rows or autoscrolling on top of this API is a lot of work. On the other hand, if you write to the high-level API, then all the bookkeeping of rows is done for you, as well as things like hover-to-open and auto-scroll, but your models have to implement the GtkTreeDragSource and GtkTreeDragDest interfaces.
