Thread: syntax help : m_button.signal_clicked().connect(sigc:...

Hi.

Will someone educate me on the correct terms/words for the following syntax so I can google for more info.

Code:

().connect(

in:

Code:

m_button.signal_clicked().connect(sigc::mem_fun(*this,&HelloWorld::on_button_clicked));

I understand what this does, establish the connection. But a reference to a guide with some examples and explanations on the syntax would be great.

thx

Code:

m_button.signal_clicked()

This means: call member function signal_clicked() of class m_button.

signal_clicked() returns an object of a class with a memberfunction named connect(). Is that correct? If I'm right about that, then is there a name for this syntax? I would like to read more about this syntax.

Thanks, exactly what I needed.

I found an example here. Easy to understand, and just as expected.
