You need to call g_object_class_install_property() first. http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gobject/gobject-The-Base-Object-Type.html#g-object-class-install-property usualy a property is "handled" by the object in question (i.e. "width-request" is something that is handled in the gtkwidget.c code). I've also used a GObject to implement an observer model; the object is basicly just a dummy object with a bunch of properties that anyone can set/get or g_signal_connect (... "notify::subject") to; but this limits me to have a limited hardcoded number of "subjects" for observation. (ofcourse; a method could be written to add dynamic properties, but thats starting to look like a hack, note also that there is no g_object_class_uninstall_property() ).
