## Description

An AtkStateSet determines a component's state set. It is composed of a set of AtkStates.

## Details

### atk_state_set_new ()

    AtkStateSet*        atk_state_set_new                   (void);

Creates a new empty state set.

Returns : | a new AtkStateSet

### atk_state_set_is_empty ()

    gboolean            atk_state_set_is_empty              (AtkStateSet *set);

Checks whether the state set is empty, i.e. has no states set.

`set` : | an AtkStateType
Returns : | `TRUE` if `set` has no states set, otherwise `FALSE`

### atk_state_set_add_state ()

    gboolean            atk_state_set_add_state             (AtkStateSet *set,
                                                             AtkStateType type);

Add a new state for the specified type to the current state set if it is not already present.

`set` : | an AtkStateSet
`type` : | an AtkStateType
Returns : | `TRUE` if the state for `type` is not already in `set`.

### atk_state_set_add_states ()

    void                atk_state_set_add_states            (AtkStateSet *set,
                                                             AtkStateType *types,
                                                             gint n_types);

Add the states for the specified types to the current state set.

`set` : | an AtkStateSet
`types` : | an array of AtkStateType
`n_types` : | The number of elements in the array

### atk_state_set_clear_states ()

    void                atk_state_set_clear_states          (AtkStateSet *set);

Removes all states from the state set.

`set` : | an AtkStateSet

### atk_state_set_contains_state ()

    gboolean            atk_state_set_contains_state        (AtkStateSet *set,
                                                             AtkStateType type);

Checks whether the state for the specified type is in the specified set.

`set` : | an AtkStateSet
`type` : | an AtkStateType
Returns : | `TRUE` if `type` is the state type is in `set`.

### atk_state_set_contains_states ()

    gboolean            atk_state_set_contains_states       (AtkStateSet *set,
                                                             AtkStateType *types,
                                                             gint n_types);

Checks whether the states for all the specified types are in the specified set.

`set` : | an AtkStateSet
`types` : | an array of AtkStateType
`n_types` : | The number of elements in the array
Returns : | `TRUE` if all the states for `type` are in `set`.

### atk_state_set_remove_state ()

    gboolean            atk_state_set_remove_state          (AtkStateSet *set,
                                                             AtkStateType type);

Removes the state for the specified type from the state set.

`set` : | an AtkStateSet
`type` : | an AtkType
Returns : | `TRUE` if `type` was the state type is in `set`.

### atk_state_set_and_sets ()

    AtkStateSet*        atk_state_set_and_sets              (AtkStateSet *set,
                                                             AtkStateSet *compare_set);

Constructs the intersection of the two sets, returning `NULL` if the intersection is empty.

`set` : | an AtkStateSet
`compare_set` : | another AtkStateSet
Returns : | a new AtkStateSet which is the intersection of the two sets.

### atk_state_set_or_sets ()

    AtkStateSet*        atk_state_set_or_sets               (AtkStateSet *set,
                                                             AtkStateSet *compare_set);

Constructs the union of the two sets.

`set` : | an AtkStateSet
`compare_set` : | another AtkStateSet
Returns : | a new AtkStateSet which is the union of the two sets, returning `NULL` is empty.

### atk_state_set_xor_sets ()

    AtkStateSet*        atk_state_set_xor_sets              (AtkStateSet *set,
                                                             AtkStateSet *compare_set);

Constructs the exclusive-or of the two sets, returning `NULL` is empty. The set returned by this operation contains the states in exactly one of the two sets.

`set` : | an AtkStateSet
`compare_set` : | another AtkStateSet
Returns : | a new AtkStateSet which contains the states which are in exactly one of the two sets.
