Constructors

.. rst-class:: interim-class

.. class:: ObjectExpression
   :no-index:


   .. classmethod:: new(object: ~gi.repository.GObject.Object) -> ~gi.repository.Gtk.ObjectExpression

      Creates an expression evaluating to the given ``object`` with a weak reference.

      Once the ``object`` is disposed, it will fail to evaluate.

      This expression is meant to break reference cycles.

      If you want to keep a reference to ``object``, use :obj:`~gi.repository.Gtk.ConstantExpression.new`.







      :param object: object to watch
