gTypeToString
fn
string gTypeToString(gobject.types.GType type)Converts a GType to its string representation (use [gda.global.gTypeFromString] for the operation in the other direction).
This function wraps [gobject.global.typeName] but for common types it provides an easier to understand and remember name. For Example the G_TYPE_STRING is converted to "string" whereas [gobject.global.typeName] converts it to "gchararray".
Parameters
type | Type to convert from. |
Returns
the GDA's string representing the given #GType or the name
