Dan Winship 9d04b4dd06 Redo child property handling; now we generate classes to hold
the
        child properties for a given widget in a container, and generate
        the child properties as properties on those classes.
        
        * parser/gapi2xml.pl (addPropElem): don't prepend "child_" to
        child prop names any more

        * generator/ClassBase.cs (ClassBase): keep childprops separate
        from properties
        (GenChildProperties): create a subclass of Gtk.ContainerChild
        containing the container type's child properties, and override
the
        Container indexer to return that type.

        * generator/ObjectGen.cs (Generate): call GenChildProperties

        * generator/Property.cs:
        * generator/ChildProperty.cs: Simplify these a bunch, since
        * child
        properties are now represented as C# properties as well. Also
add
        [GLib.Property(cname)] and [Gtk.ChildProperty(cname)]
attributes.

        * glib/Makefile.am (sources): add PropertyAttribute.cs

        * glib/PropertyAttribute.cs: attribute used to label
        GObject properties

        * gtk/Makefile.am (sources): add ChildPropertyAttribute.cs

        * gtk/gtk-api.raw: regenerate for parser changes (remove
        "Child"/"child_" from child property names).

        * gtk/ChildPropertyAttribute.cs: attribute used to label
        GtkContainer child properties

        * gtk/Container.custom: define the ContainerChild class, and an
        indexer to return instances of it.

        * doc/en/Gtk/: update for container child property change

<summary>A container which allows you to position widgets at fixed coordinates</summary>
<remarks>
<para>The <see cref="T:Gtk.Fixed" /> widget is a container which can place child widgets at fixed positions and with fixed sizes, given in pixels. <see cref="T:Gtk.Fixed" /> performs no automatic layout management.</para>
<para>For most applications, you should not use this container! It keeps you from having to learn about the other Gtk# containers, but it results in broken applications. With <see cref="T:Gtk.Fixed" />, the following things will result in truncated text, overlapping widgets, and other display bugs:
<list type="bullet">
<item>
<term>Themes, which may change widget sizes.</term>
</item>
<item>
<term>Fonts other than the one you used to write the app will of course change the size of widgets containing text; keep in mind that users may use a larger font because of difficulty reading the default, or they may be using Windows or the framebuffer port of GTK+, where different fonts are available.</term>
</item>
<item>
<term>Translation of text into other languages changes its size. Also, display of non-English text will use a different font in many cases.</term>
</item>
</list></para>
<para>In addition, the fixed widget can not properly be mirrored in right-to-left languages such as Hebrew and Arabic. i.e. normally Gtk# will flip the interface to put labels to the right of the thing they label, but it can not do that with <see cref="T:Gtk.Fixed" />. So your application will not be usable in right-to-left languages.</para>
<para>Finally, fixed positioning makes it kind of annoying to add/remove GUI elements, since you have to reposition all the other elements. This is a long-term maintenance problem for your application.</para>
<para>If you know none of these things are an issue for your application, and prefer the simplicity of <see cref="T:Gtk.Fixed" />, by all means use the widget. But you should be aware of the tradeoffs.</para>
