GLib.VariantBuilder.add_parsed

### Method

# GLib VariantBuilderadd_parsed

since: 2.26

#### Declaration

    void
    g_variant_builder_add_parsed (
      GVariantBuilder* builder,
      const gchar* format,
      ...
    )

#### Description

Adds to a `GVariantBuilder`.

This call is a convenience wrapper that is exactly equivalent to calling `g_variant_new_parsed()` followed by g_variant_builder_add_value().

Note that the arguments must be of the correct width for their types specified in `format_string`. This can be achieved by casting them. See the [GVariant varargs documentation][gvariant-varargs].

This function might be used as follows:

    GVariant *
    make_pointless_dictionary (void)
    {
      GVariantBuilder builder;
      int i;

      g_variant_builder_init (&builder, G_VARIANT_TYPE_ARRAY);
      g_variant_builder_add_parsed (&builder, "{'width', <%i>}", 600);
      g_variant_builder_add_parsed (&builder, "{'title', <%s>}", "foo");
      g_variant_builder_add_parsed (&builder, "{'transparency', <0.5>}");
      return g_variant_builder_end (&builder);
    }

Available since: 2.26
