provided API.




Methods
-------

.. rst-class:: interim-class

.. class:: ExpressionWatch
   :no-index:


   .. method:: evaluate(value: ~gi.repository.GObject.Value) -> bool

      Evaluates the watched expression and on success stores the result
      in ``value``\.

      This is equivalent to calling :obj:`~gi.repository.Gtk.Expression.evaluate` with the
      expression and this pointer originally used to create ``watch``\.






      :param value: an empty ``GValue`` to be set




   .. method:: unwatch() -> None

      Stops watching an expression.

      See :obj:`~gi.repository.Gtk.Expression.watch` for how the watch
      was established.
