Gtk.Widget::destroy-event

function callback(widget, event:Gdk.Event, ):Boolean;

The ::destroy-event signal is emitted when a Gdk.Window is destroyed. You rarely get this signal, because most widgets disconnect themselves from their window before they destroy it, so no widget owns the window at destroy time.

To receive this signal, the Gdk.Window associated to the widget needs to enable the #GDK_STRUCTURE_MASK mask. GDK will enable this mask automatically for all new windows.

widget

instance of Gtk.Widget that is emitting the signal

event

the event which triggered this signal

Returns

true to stop other handlers from being invoked for the event. false to propagate the event further.
