Interface Fireable

public interface Fireable

Deprecated: This class is part of the java-gnome 2.x family of libraries, which, due to their inefficiency and complexity, are no longer being maintained and have been abandoned by the java-gnome project. This class may have an equivalent in java-gnome 4.0, see org.gnome.glib.Fireable. You should be aware that there is a considerably different API in the new library: the architecture is completely different and most notably internals are no longer exposed to public view.

Defines the interface for a fire method, which is used by Timer to signal that its interval has elapsed.

Method Detail

fire

public boolean fire()

Deprecated: Superceeded by java-gnome 4.0; a method along these lines may well exist in the new bindings, but if it does it likely has a different name or signature due to the shift to an algorithmic mapping of the underlying native libraries.

A generic signal callback, which returns true if the subsystem that called it should continue firing (that is, continue invoking this callback).

Returns: true if the caller should continue calling this method, or false if this should be the last invocation.
