acceleratorParse
fn
void acceleratorParse(string accelerator, out uint acceleratorKey, out gdk.types.ModifierType acceleratorMods)Parses a string representing an accelerator. The format looks like “<Control>a” or “<Shift><Alt>F1” or “<Release>z” (the last one is for key release).
The parser is fairly liberal and allows lower or upper case, and also abbreviations such as “<Ctl>” and “<Ctrl>”. Key names are parsed using [gdk.global.keyvalFromName]. For character keys the name is not the symbol, but the lowercase name, e.g. one would use “<Ctrl>minus” instead of “<Ctrl>-”.
If the parse fails, accelerator_key and accelerator_mods will be set to 0 (zero).
Parameters
accelerator | string representing an accelerator |
acceleratorKey | return location for accelerator keyval, or null |
acceleratorMods | return location for accelerator modifier mask, null |
