Sorry... I'm just not clear on the details here. If I subclass
gobject.GObject and use the "emit" method, then I get:
Emitting signal...
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/jason/.nautilus/python-extensions/MenuProvTest.py", line
32, in updated_callback
self.emit('items_updated')
TypeError: <MenuProviderTest object at 0x7f1c4a452fa0 (GObject at
0x287b100)>: unknown signal name: items_updated
If I add the "items_updated" signal to my class' __gsignals__ dict,
then there's no exception, but nothing happens (I presume then that
I'm not firing the signal that the nautilus extension API defines, but
my own custom one now).
Here's the test I'm using:
----
import sys
import nautilus
import gobject
FAKE_MENU_ITEM = nautilus.MenuItem(
"Fake",
"Fake menu item",
"Fake menu item",
None)
class MenuProviderTest(gobject.GObject, nautilus.MenuProvider):
# Probably not a good idea:
__gsignals__ = {
'items_updated' : (gobject.SIGNAL_RUN_LAST,
gobject.TYPE_NONE,
())
}
def __init__(self):
super(MenuProviderTest, self).__init__()
def get_file_items(self, window, items):
sys.stderr.write("In get_file_items\n")
return [FAKE_MENU_ITEM]
def get_background_items(self, window, folder):
sys.stderr.write("In get_background_items\n")
gobject.timeout_add_seconds(10, self.updated_callback)
return [FAKE_MENU_ITEM]
def updated_callback(self):
sys.stderr.write("Emitting signal...\n")
self.emit('items_updated')
sys.stderr.write("Signal done...\n")
return False
gobject.type_register(MenuProviderTest)
