  GtkWidget* widget
)

Description [src]

Causes widget to have the keyboard focus for the GtkWindow it’s inside.

If widget is not focusable, or its Gtk.WidgetClass.grab_focus implementation cannot transfer the focus to a descendant of widget that is focusable, it will not take focus and FALSE will be returned.

Calling gtk_widget_grab_focus() on an already focused widget is allowed, should not have an effect, and return TRUE.
