Builder.valueFromStringType

bool valueFromStringType(gobject.types.GType type, string string_, out gobject.value.Value value)

Calls [gobject.value.Value.init_] on the value argument, so it need not be initialised beforehand.

Upon errors false will be returned and error will be assigned a [glib.error.ErrorWrap] from the GTK_BUILDER_ERROR domain.
