gdk.content_serializer

Module for [ContentSerializer] class

Types 3

A [gdk.content_serializer.ContentSerializer] is used to serialize content for inter-application data transfers.

The [gdk.content_serializer.ContentSerializer] transforms an object that is identified by a GType into a serialized form (i.e. a byte stream) that is identified by a mime type.

GTK provides serializers and deserializers for common data types such as text, colors, images or file lists. To register your own serialization functions, use func@Gdk.content_register_serializer.

Also see [gdk.content_deserializer.ContentDeserializer].
