<p>
<span class="type">GConfClient</span> adds the following features to plain GConf:
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; ">
<li class="listitem"><p>
A client-side cache for a specified list of directories you're interested in.
You can "preload" entire directories into the cache, speeding things up even more.
</p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>
Some automatic error handling, if you request it.
</p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>
Signals when a value changes or an error occurs.
</p></li>
</ul></div>
<p>
</p>
<div class="warning"><p>
If you use <span class="type">GConfClient</span>, you should not use the underlying <a class="link" href="gconf-gconf-engine.html#GConfEngine" title="GConfEngine"><span class="type">GConfEngine</span></a>
directly, or you'll break things. This is why there's no
<code class="function">gconf_client_get_engine()</code> function; in fact, if you create the <span class="type">GConfClient</span> with
<a class="link" href="gconf-gconf-client.html#gconf-client-get-default" title="gconf_client_get_default ()"><code class="function">gconf_client_get_default()</code></a>, there is no (legitimate) way to obtain a pointer to the
underlying <a class="link" href="gconf-gconf-engine.html#GConfEngine" title="GConfEngine"><span class="type">GConfEngine</span></a>. If you create a <span class="type">GConfClient</span> from an existing engine,
you'll have to be disciplined enough to avoid using that engine directly.
<a href="#ftn.id-1.2.2.5.3.1.8" class="footnote" name="id-1.2.2.5.3.1.8"><sup class="footnote">[1]</sup></a>
</p></div>
<p>
A <span class="type">GConfClient</span> has a list of directories that it "watches." These directories
are optionally pre-loaded into the cache, and monitored in order to emit the
<span class="type">value_changed</span> signal. The <span class="type">GConfClient</span> can also be used to access directories
not in the list, but those directories won't be preloaded and the "value_changed"
signal won't be emitted for them.
</p>
<p>
There are two error-related signals in <span class="type">GConfClient</span>. The first is plain "error";
it's emitted anytime an error occurs. The second is "unreturned_error"; this
signal is emitted if you pass <span class="symbol">NULL</span> as the <a href="/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/glib/glib-Error-Reporting.html#GError"><span class="type">GError</span></a>** to any
<span class="type">GConfClient</span> function. The idea is that you can have a global error handler
attached to the "unreturned_error" signal; if you want to use this handler, you
don't need to use the normal GConf error handling mechanism. However, if you
ever need to handle errors for a specific function call, you can override the
global handler by passing a non-<span class="symbol">NULL</span> <a href="/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/glib/glib-Error-Reporting.html#GError"><span class="type">GError</span></a>** to the
function. If you want an error handler that's <span class="emphasis"><em>always</em></span>
invoked, use the "error" signal.
</p>
<p>
The "value_changed" signal is emitted whenever the server notifies your client
program that a value has changed in the GConf database. There's one problem with
this signal: the signal handler has to use <code class="function">strcmp()</code> to determine whether the
changed value is the one it was interested in. If you are interested in lots of
values, then every time a value changes you'll be making lots of calls to
<code class="function">strcmp()</code> and getting O(n) performance. <a class="link" href="gconf-gconf-client.html#gconf-client-notify-add" title="gconf_client_notify_add ()"><code class="function">gconf_client_notify_add()</code></a> is a superior
interface in most cases for this reason. Note that calling <a class="link" href="gconf-gconf-client.html#gconf-client-set" title="gconf_client_set ()"><code class="function">gconf_client_set()</code></a>
and its relatives will cause "value_changed" to be emitted, but "value_changed"
is also emitted if another process changes the value.
</p>
<p>
Most of the <span class="type">GConfClient</span> interface mirrors the functions you'd use to manipulate
a <a class="link" href="gconf-gconf-engine.html#GConfEngine" title="GConfEngine"><span class="type">GConfEngine</span></a> (<a class="link" href="gconf-gconf.html#gconf-engine-get" title="gconf_engine_get ()"><code class="function">gconf_engine_get()</code></a> and <a class="link" href="gconf-gconf-client.html#gconf-client-get" title="gconf_client_get ()"><code class="function">gconf_client_get()</code></a>, for example). These should
all work just like the <a class="link" href="gconf-gconf-engine.html#GConfEngine" title="GConfEngine"><span class="type">GConfEngine</span></a> versions, except that they use the cache
from <span class="type">GConfClient</span> and emit the <span class="type">GConfClient</span> signals.
</p>
<p>
As always with GConf, applications based on <span class="type">GConfClient</span> should use a
model-controller-view architecture. Typically, this means that areas of your
application affected by a setting will monitor the relevant key and update
themselves when necessary. The preferences dialog will simply change keys,
allowing GConf to notify the rest of the application that changes have occurred.
Here the application proper is the "view," GConf is the "model", and the
preferences dialog is the "controller." In no case should you do this:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">
gconf_client_set(client, key, value);
application_update_to_reflect_setting();
</pre>
<p>
This breaks if a setting is changed <span class="emphasis"><em>outside</em></span> your
application—or even from a different part of your application.
The correct way (in pseudo-code) is:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">
/* At application startup */
gconf_client_notify_add(client, key, application_update_to_reflect_setting, data);
/* From preferences dialog */
gconf_client_set(client, key, value);
</pre>
<p>
See the example programs that come with GConf for more details.

<p>
Request notification of changes to <em class="parameter"><code>namespace_section</code></em>. This includes the key
<em class="parameter"><code>namespace_section</code></em> itself, and any keys below it (the behavior is identical to
<a class="link" href="gconf-gconf.html#gconf-engine-notify-add" title="gconf_engine_notify_add ()"><code class="function">gconf_engine_notify_add()</code></a>, but while <a class="link" href="gconf-gconf.html#gconf-engine-notify-add" title="gconf_engine_notify_add ()"><code class="function">gconf_engine_notify_add()</code></a> places a notification request
on the server for every notify function, <span class="type">GConfClient</span> requests server
notification for directories added with <a class="link" href="gconf-gconf-client.html#gconf-client-add-dir" title="gconf_client_add_dir ()"><code class="function">gconf_client_add_dir()</code></a> and keeps the
list of <a class="link" href="gconf-gconf-client.html#GConfClientNotifyFunc" title="GConfClientNotifyFunc ()"><span class="type">GConfClientNotifyFunc</span></a> on the client side).
</p>
<p>
For the notification to happen, <em class="parameter"><code>namespace_section</code></em> must be equal to or below one
of the directories added with <a class="link" href="gconf-gconf-client.html#gconf-client-add-dir" title="gconf_client_add_dir ()"><code class="function">gconf_client_add_dir()</code></a>. You can still call
<a class="link" href="gconf-gconf-client.html#gconf-client-notify-add" title="gconf_client_notify_add ()"><code class="function">gconf_client_notify_add()</code></a> for other directories, but no notification will be
received until you add a directory above or equal to <em class="parameter"><code>namespace_section</code></em>. One
implication of this is that <a class="link" href="gconf-gconf-client.html#gconf-client-remove-dir" title="gconf_client_remove_dir ()"><code class="function">gconf_client_remove_dir()</code></a> temporarily disables
notifications that were below the removed directory.
</p>
<p>
The function returns a connection ID you can use to call
<a class="link" href="gconf-gconf-client.html#gconf-client-notify-remove" title="gconf_client_notify_remove ()"><code class="function">gconf_client_notify_remove()</code></a>.

See the description of <a class="link" href="gconf-gconf-client.html#GConfClientNotifyFunc" title="GConfClientNotifyFunc ()"><span class="type">GConfClientNotifyFunc</span></a> for details on how the
notification function is called.

<p>
The <a class="link" href="gconf-gconf-client.html#GConfClientPreloadType" title="enum GConfClientPreloadType"><span class="type">GConfClientPreloadType</span></a> is used to tell <span class="type">GConfClient</span> how to preload one of
its directories. As a rule of thumb, if you plan to get the value of almost all the
keys in a directory, preloading that directory will probably enhance
performance. If you plan to use only half the keys, preloading is likely a bad
idea. <em class="parameter"><code>GCONF_CLIENT_PRELOAD_NONE</code></em> specifies that no preload occurs,
<em class="parameter"><code>GCONF_CLIENT_PRELOAD_ONELEVEL</code></em> loads the immediate children of the directory,
<em class="parameter"><code>GCONF_CLIENT_PRELOAD_RECURSIVE</code></em> loads <span class="emphasis"><em>all</em></span> children of the
directory and its subdirectories, recursively.

<a class="link" href="gconf-gconf-client.html#GConfClientErrorHandlingMode" title="enum GConfClientErrorHandlingMode"><span class="type">GConfClientErrorHandlingMode</span></a> is used to control <span class="type">GConfClient</span>'s default error
handling. <span class="type">GConfClient</span> can pop up a dialog in the default signal handler for
"error" or "unreturned_error." You can specify that no errors are handled, only
unreturned errors are handled, or all errors are handled with this enumeration.
You can prevent specific errors from being handled automatically by stopping the
signal emission before the default signal handler is called (see the GLib
documentation, <a href="/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/gobject/gobject-Signals.html#g-signal-stop-emission-by-name"><code class="function">g_signal_stop_emission_by_name()</code></a> for example).
