DESCRIPTION
This class wraps the messages passed to a "Gtk2::UniqueApp". Usually
you will never create a message with the Perl API has this is done by
the bindings on your behalf. Since messages are only read through the
Perl bidings the methods for setting the contents of a message are not
accessible.
What's important to understand is that a "Gtk2::MessageData" is a
generic container for all message types (text, data, filename and
uris). There's no way to query what kind of message a
"Gtk2::MessageData" holds. It is the responsability of each application
to know it in advance and to call the proper get methods. If you don't
call the proper get method you could have a segmentation fault in your
application as the C library will try to unmarshall the message with
the wrong code.
You can retrieve the data set using "Gkt2::MessageData::get()",
"Gkt2::MessageData::get_text()" or "Gkt2::MessageData::get_uris()".
