Missing GObject.connect function in typelib, but present in gir

[Marko Tasic <mtasic85 gmail com>]

Hi,

I've started new project called pygir-ctypes. It's pure python binding

of girepository. Initial results are promising. pygir-ctypes parses all

GI*Info structs, and dynamically produces python classes, methods,

functions, etc. Have in mind that pygir-ctypes isn't trying to be compatible

with pygtk nor pyobject.

But, when I try to look for function "connect" in "GObject" typelib,

it's missing. However there are: 'signal_connect_closure',

'signal_connect_closure_by_id', 'signal_handler_disconnect',

'signal_handler_is_connected', 'signal_handlers_disconnect_matched'.

When I look in "/usr/share/gir-1.0/GObject-2.0.gir"

I can see function called "connect", but when I try to find it in

"/usr/lib/girepository-1.0/GObject-2.0.typelib", it is missing.

I tried to recompile GObject-2.0.gir to GObject-2.0.typelib, but

again I cannot find "connect" function. Why is "connect" function

missing from compiled typelib?

I'm using: pypy 1.4.1, cpython 2.7, glib2 2.26.1-1,

gobject-introspection 0.9.12-1, gtk2 2.22.1-1...
