gtkObjectGetArgs {RGtk2} | R Documentation

## Access properties of a Gtk object

### Description

DEPRECATED!! (compatibility wrappers for RGtk 1!)

These functions allow one to both read and set properties of a Gtk object by name and also in the usual S-like manner. `gtkObjectGetArgs` retrieves the values of one or more properties by specifying their name as a vector. `gtkObjectGetArg` retrieves the value of a single property and avoids having to worry about whether the result is a value or a list of values of length 1. `gtkObjectSetArgs` allows one to set one or more properties by name in the form `gtkObjectSetArgs(obj, x=1, y="a")`. `[.GtkObject` and `[[<-.GtkObject` provide S-like accessors.

### Usage

    gtkObjectGetArgs(obj, argNames)
    gtkObjectGetArg(obj, argName)
    gtkObjectSetArgs(obj, ..., .vals)

### Arguments

`obj` | the Gtk object whose properties are to be accessed
`argNames` | a character vector giving the names of the properties to retrieve.
`argName` | a string (i.e. character vector of length 1) giving the name of the property whose value is to be retrieved.
`...` | for `[.GtkObject`, this is a character vector giving the names of the properties of interest. For `gtkObjectSetArgs`, this is a collection of name=value pairs where `name` is the name of the property to set and `value` is the value to which it is to be set.
`.vals` | a named list similar to `...` in `gtkObjectSetArgs`

### Note

THIS STUFF IS VERY OLD AND DEPRECATED (compatibility wrappers for RGtk 1)
