newFromResource

fun newFromResource(resourcePath: String): Texture

Creates a new texture by loading an image from a resource.

The file format is detected automatically. The supported formats are PNG and JPEG, though more formats might be available.

It is a fatal error if @resource_path does not specify a valid image resource and the program will abort if that happens. If you are unsure about the validity of a resource, use ctor@Gdk.Texture.new_from_file to load it.

This function is threadsafe, so that you can e.g. use GTask and method@Gio.Task.run_in_thread to avoid blocking the main thread while loading a big image.

Return

A newly-created GdkTexture

Parameters

resourcePath

the path of the resource file
