GSimpleAction(name::AbstractString, 
              [parameter_type::Type{T}, [initial_state]]; kwargs...) where T

Create an action with a name and optionally a parameter_type from a Julia type (only a few simple types are supported) and an initial_state. If initial_state is not provided, the action will be stateless.

Keyword arguments set the action's GObject properties.

add_action(m::GActionMap, name::AbstractString, parameter::Type{T}, handler::Function)

Add an action with name and a parameter of type T to a GActionMap. Returns the action. Also connect a handler for the action's "activate" signal.

add_action(m::GActionMap, name::AbstractString, handler::Function)

Add an action with name to a GActionMap. Also connect a handler for the action's "activate" signal.

add_stateful_action(m::GActionMap, name::AbstractString, parameter::Type{T}, initial_state, handler::Function)

Add a stateful action with name, a parameter of type T, and an initial state to a GActionMap. Also connect a handler for the action's "change-state" signal.

add_stateful_action(m::GActionMap, name::AbstractString, initial_state, handler::Function)

Add a stateful action with name and an initial state to a GActionMap. Also connect a handler for the action's "change-state" signal.

set_state(m::GSimpleAction, v)

Set the state of a stateful action.

GMenuItem(label, [detailed_action])

Create a GMenuItem with attributes label and an optional detailed_action, which is an action name with an optional detail argument.

GApplication(id = nothing, flags = GLib.ApplicationFlags_FLAGS_NONE)

Create a GApplication with DBus id id and flags.

Related GLib function: g_application_new()

run(app::GApplication)

Calls g_application_run, starting the main loop. If the loop is already running, this function will stop it and emit a warning before starting the application loop.

cancel_after_delay(timeout)->GCancellable

Creates and returns a GCancellable and after timeout seconds, cancels it.
