If you want to add your own properties, you should use the template
class Glib::Property<>, e.g. Glib::Property<bool>. (I assume you want a
boolean property, since you ask about g_param_spec_boolean().)
For example programs that use Glib::Property, see
https://git.gnome.org/browse/gtkmm-documentation/tree/examples/others/cellrenderercustom/cellrenderertoggle.cc
https://git.gnome.org/browse/glibmm/tree/tests/glibmm_interface_implementation/main.cc
Glib::Property has some restrictions (see its documenation). Hopefully
they will be somewhat relaxed in the future. See bug
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=731484
I don't know if there is a way to connect a property and a setting in
such a way that a change in one is automatically transferred to the
other. If it can't be done automatically, you can connect callback
routines which are called when something is changed.
myproperty.get_proxy()->signal_changed().connect(......);
mysetting->signal_changed().connect(........);
Do you really need a property that stores the same value as a
Gio::Settings? Why not use only the setting? (You don't have to reply here.)

Hi Juan,
I'm currently porting meld from pygtk to gtkmm, basically to learn
C++11 and gtkmm (see https://github.com/egore/meld). Properties are a
very essential part of pygtk (or at least in the way meld uses them)
and for now I try not to diverge to much from what is done in the
original code.
I'm currently at the point where filediff.py (the view showing two or
three files next to each other) uses a property to enable source code
highlighting
(https://git.gnome.org/browse/meld/tree/meld/filediff.py#n149). This
is bound to a gsetting
(https://git.gnome.org/browse/meld/tree/meld/settings.py#n114). If I
understand everything correct this causes changes to the settings to
update the property (and the other way around).
Best wishes,
Christoph

Hi,
May I ask you why do you need these? I think (Kjell could tell you
better) there is a more friendly way of defining gobject
properties in your gtkmm classes.
Regards,
Juan.

Hi list,
does anyone know about some documentation regarding how to use
the gtkmm equivalents of g_object_class_install_property() and
g_param_spec_boolean()? My Google-foo didn't come up with any
useful result.
Thanks in advance,
Christoph
