Device.getVendorId

Returns the vendor ID of this device.

This ID is retrieved from the device, and does not change.

This function, together with [method@Gdk.Device.get_product_id], can be used to eg. compose GSettings paths to store settings for this device.

static GSettings *
get_device_settings (GdkDevice *device)
{
const char *vendor, *product;
GSettings *settings;
GdkDevice *device;
char *path;

vendor = gdk_device_get_vendor_id (device);
product = gdk_device_get_product_id (device);

path = g_strdup_printf ("/org/example/app/devices/%s:%s/", vendor, product);
settings = g_settings_new_with_path (DEVICE_SCHEMA, path);
g_free (path);

return settings;
}
