gtk:tree-path-new-from-string (pathstr)

pathstr -- a string representation of a path

The newly created gtk:tree-path instance, or nil.

Creates a tree path initialized to pathstr. The pathstr argument is expected to be a colon separated list of numbers. For example, the string "10:4:0" would create a path of depth 3 pointing to the 11th child of the root node, the 5th child of that 11th child, and the 1st child of that 5th child. If an invalid path string is passed in, nil is returned. The gtk:tree-path implementation is deprecated since 4.10. Please do not use it in newly written code.
