Description: link properties between objects in Glib-Perl
Glib::Ex::ConnectProperties establishes a link between properties on
different objects, so a change to any one of them is propagated to
others.
.
This is helpful for tying say the "active" of a Gtk2::CheckButton
control to the "active" of some target widget. The button controls
the widget, but the button also gets updated if the target changes by
some other means.
