MarkupCollectType
===================================================================

.. currentmodule:: gi.repository.GLib





.. class:: MarkupCollectType
   :no-contents-entry:






A mixed enumerated type and flags field. You must specify one type
(string, strdup, boolean, tristate).  Additionally, you may  optionally
bitwise OR the type with the flag :const:`~gi.repository.GLib.MarkupCollectType.OPTIONAL`.

It is likely that this enum will be extended in the future to
support other types.













Fields
------

.. rst-class:: interim-class

.. class:: MarkupCollectType
   :no-index:
   

   .. attribute:: BOOLEAN

      Expects a parameter of type (gboolean *)
      and parses the attribute value as a boolean. Sets :const:`False` if the
      attribute isn't present. Valid boolean values consist of
      (case-insensitive) "false", "f", "no", "n", "0" and "true", "t",
      "yes", "y", "1"







   .. attribute:: INVALID

      Used to terminate the list of attributes
      to collect







   .. attribute:: OPTIONAL

      Can be bitwise ORed with the other fields.
      If present, allows the attribute not to appear. A default value
      is set depending on what value type is used







   .. attribute:: STRDUP

      As with :const:`~gi.repository.GLib.MarkupCollectType.STRING`, but
      expects a parameter of type (char **) and :func:`~gi.repository.GLib.strdup`s the
      returned pointer. The pointer must be freed with :func:`~gi.repository.GLib.free`







   .. attribute:: STRING

      Collect the string pointer directly from
      the attribute_values[] array. Expects a parameter of type (const
      char **). If :const:`~gi.repository.GLib.MarkupCollectType.OPTIONAL` is specified and the
      attribute isn't present then the pointer will be set to :const:`None`







   .. attribute:: TRISTATE

      As with :const:`~gi.repository.GLib.MarkupCollectType.BOOLEAN`, but
      in the case of a missing attribute a value is set that compares
      equal to neither :const:`False` nor :const:`True` G_MARKUP_COLLECT_OPTIONAL is
      implied
