Method

GeglNodecreate_child

Declaration [src]

GeglNode*
gegl_node_create_child (
  GeglNode* parent,
  const gchar* operation
)

Description [src]

Creates a new processing node that performs the specified operation. All properties of the operation will have their default values. This is included as an addition to #gegl_node_new_child in the public API to have a non varargs entry point for bindings as well as sometimes simpler more readable code.

Parameters

operation const gchar*
 

The type of node to create.

 The data is owned by the caller of the function.
 The value is a NUL terminated UTF-8 string.

Return value

Returns: GeglNode
 

A newly created node. The node will be destroyed by the parent. Calling g_object_unref on a node will cause the node to be dropped by the parent. (You may also add additional references using g_object_ref/g_object_unref, but in general relying on the parents reference counting is easiest.)

 The data is owned by the instance.
