Li,
Aha. I think I get it. I am supposed to replace the value of
get_attributes (as defined in atk/atkobject.h):
AtkAttributeSet* (*get_attributes) (AtkObject *accessible);
with my own routine which will return the AtkAttributeSet*. Right?
I got faked out because many (all?) of the strongly-typed attributes
(e.g., name, description) can be explicitly set in Atk:
atk_object_set_name()
atk_object_set_description()
I was searching for a routine in the Atk library that would follow this
same pattern for an object attribute, like this:
atk_object_set_attribute()
Mea culpa.

Li,
I read the reference. I had already seen it in my search for an answer
It describes what is and is not normally in the AttributeSet returned
from Accessible:getAttributes(). It does *not* describe how to
programmatically introduce an attribute into the
Accessibility::AttributeSet for an object.
What ATK methods do I call to associate an attribute:
Wireframe=cylinder
with my AtkObject so that an AT-SPI client calling
Accessible_getAttributes() will retrieve this attribute.
I've searched the ATK interfaces and I do not see a way to do it.
