=head1 DESCRIPTION

Glib::ParamSpec encapsulates the metadata required to specify parameters.
You will see these most often when creating new Glib::Object types; see
C<< Glib::Type->register >> and L<Glib::Object::Subclass>.

Parameter specifications allow you to provide limits for validation as 
well as nicknames and blurbs to document the parameters.  Blurbs show up
in reference documentation such as this page or the gtk+ C API reference;
i'm not really sure where the nicknames get used.  The Perl bindings for
the most part ignore the difference between dashes and underscores in
the paramspec names, which typically find use as the actual keys for 
object parameters.

It's worth noting that Glib offers various sizes of integer and floating
point values, while Perl really only deals with full integers and double
precision floating point values.  The size distinction is important for
the underlying C libraries.

## stuff from gparamspecs.h

###
### glib's param specs offer lots of different sizes of integers and floating
### point values, but perl only supports UV (uint), IV (int), and NV (double).
### so, we can save quite a bit of code space by just aliasing all these
### together (and letting the compiler take care of casting the values to
### the right sizes).

ParamSpec to be used for any generic perl scalar, including references to
complex objects.

Currently C<Gtk2::Builder> cannot set object properties of this type
(there's no hooks for property value parsing, as of Gtk 2.20), so
prefer the builtin types if buildable support for an object matters.
A C<boxed> of C<Glib::Strv> can give an array of strings.  A signal
handler callback can do most of what a coderef might.

####
#### accessors
####
####  the various paramspec structures have important members in them, but
####  the API does not provide accessors for them.  (i presume to reduce
####  bloat and performance penalties.)  thus, we have to provide our own
####  accessors in order to be able to find important things like default
####  and limit values, etc.
####
####  an important choice is whether to use the simple and popular
####  dual-purpose accessor/mutator combo used widely in the Gtk2 module,
####  or to use get_foo/set_foo pairs.  well, that decision is pretty much
####  made for us, by the fact that the simple form for pspec.flags would
####  conflict directly with the GParamFlags constructor.  so, we use the
####  get_foo form throughout.  set_foo functions are currently not
####  implemented.
####
####  and finally, there's the sticky issue of documentation generation.
####  i've aliased a many of the repetitive accessors together, and this
####  results in some problems with the docgen tools, since the aliases
####  are actually in different packages.  to cut down on confusion and
####  the overall number of manpages generated, i've hidden all but the
####  "master" alias from the docs, e.g., for the integer types, only
####  Int is documented, and a note explains that the others are the same.
####  suggestions for a better scheme are quite welcome.
