Nice work Johan! What about the case where we want accessors/mutators?

Ali: If you want to define your own accessors you can do that in a way similar to the builtin property():

class Object(gobject.GObject):
def get_prop(self):
return self._value

def set_prop(self, value):
self._value = value
prop = gobject.property(get_prop, set_prop)

But then you obviously have to take care of the storage of the value yourself.

Nice, now you just need to do the same for signals! Kiwi has a much easier way to define them.

Nice work Johan!

This is the kind of features every binding should has, take advantage of the language.
