Gtk.TextBuffer::insert-text
Description: Reference for signal Gtk.TextBuffer::insert-text

### Signal

# Gtk TextBuffer::insert-text

#### Declaration

    void
    insert_text (
      GtkTextBuffer* self,
      const GtkTextIter* location,
      gchar* text,
      gint len,
      gpointer user_data
    )

#### Description [src]

Emitted to insert text in a `GtkTextBuffer`.

Insertion actually occurs in the default handler.

Note that if your handler runs before the default handler it must not invalidate the `location` iter (or has to revalidate it). The default signal handler revalidates it to point to the end of the inserted text.

See also: `gtk_text_buffer_insert()`, `gtk_text_buffer_insert_range()`.

Default handler: The default handler is called after the handlers added via `g_signal_connect()`.

#### Parameters

`location`

  Type: `GtkTextIter`

  Position to insert `text` in `textbuffer`.

  The data is owned by the caller of the function.

`text`

  Type: `gchar*`

  The UTF-8 text to be inserted.

  The data is owned by the caller of the function.
  The value is a NUL terminated UTF-8 string.

`len`

  Type: `gint`

  Length of the inserted text in bytes.
