Signals.connectObject

This is similar to g_signal_connect_data(), but uses a closure which ensures that the @gobject stays alive during the call to @c_handler by temporarily adding a reference count to @gobject.

When the @gobject is destroyed the signal handler will be automatically disconnected. Note that this is not currently threadsafe (ie: emitting a signal while @gobject is being destroyed in another thread is not safe).

the instance to connect to.

a string of the form "signal-name::detail".

cHandler GCallback

the #GCallback to connect.

gobject ObjectG

the object to pass as data to @c_handler.

connectFlags GConnectFlags

a combination of #GConnectFlags.

Return Value

Type: gulong

the handler id.
