gtk.builder_scope

[gtk.builder_scope.BuilderScope] is an interface to provide language binding support to [gtk.builder.Builder].

The goal of [gtk.builder_scope.BuilderScope] is to look up programming-language-specific values for strings that are given in a [gtk.builder.Builder] UI file.

The primary intended audience is bindings that want to provide deeper integration of [gtk.builder.Builder] into the language.

A [gtk.builder_scope.BuilderScope] instance may be used with multiple [gtk.builder.Builder] objects, even at once.

By default, GTK will use its own implementation of [gtk.builder_scope.BuilderScope] for the C language which can be created via [gtk.builder_cscope.BuilderCScope.new_].

If you implement [gtk.builder_scope.BuilderScope] for a language binding, you may want to (partially) derive from or fall back to a [gtk.builder_cscope.BuilderCScope], as that class implements support for automatic lookups from C symbols.
