## Description

Deprecated operations related to paths.

## Details

### gimp_path_list ()

    gchar **            gimp_path_list                      (gint32 image_ID,
                                                             gint *num_paths);

### Warning

`gimp_path_list` is deprecated and should not be used in newly-written code. Use `gimp_image_get_vectors()` instead.

`image_ID` : | The image to list the paths from.
`num_paths` : | The number of paths returned.
Returns : | List of the paths belonging to this image.

### gimp_path_get_points ()

    gint                gimp_path_get_points                (gint32 image_ID,
                                                             const gchar *name,

### Warning

`gimp_path_get_points` is deprecated and should not be used in newly-written code. Use `gimp_vectors_stroke_get_points()` instead.

`image_ID` : | The image to list the paths from.
`name` : | The name of the path whose points should be listed.
`path_closed` : | Return if the path is closed. (0 = path open, 1 = path closed).
`num_path_point_details` : | The number of points returned. Each point is made up of (x, y, pnt_type) of floats.
`points_pairs` : | The points in the path represented as 3 floats. The first is the x pos, next is the y pos, last is the type of the pnt. The type field is dependant on the path type. For beziers (type 1 paths) the type can either be (1.0 = BEZIER_ANCHOR, 2.0 = BEZIER_CONTROL, 3.0 = BEZIER_MOVE). Note all points are returned in pixel resolution.
Returns : | The type of the path. Currently only one type (1 = Bezier) is supported.

### gimp_path_get_current ()

    gchar *             gimp_path_get_current               (gint32 image_ID);

### Warning

`gimp_path_get_current` is deprecated and should not be used in newly-written code. Use `gimp_image_get_active_vectors()` instead.

`image_ID` : | The image to get the current path from.
Returns : | The name of the current path.

### Warning

`gimp_path_set_current` is deprecated and should not be used in newly-written code. Use `gimp_image_set_active_vectors()` instead.

`image_ID` : | The image in which a path will become current.
`name` : | The name of the path to make current.
Returns : | TRUE on success.

### gimp_path_set_points ()

    gboolean            gimp_path_set_points                (gint32 image_ID,

### Warning

`gimp_path_set_points` is deprecated and should not be used in newly-written code. Use `gimp_vectors_stroke_new_from_points()` instead.

`image_ID` : | The image to set the paths in.
`name` : | The name of the path to create. If it exists then a unique name will be created - query the list of paths if you want to make sure that the name of the path you create is unique. This will be set as the current path.
`ptype` : | The type of the path. Currently only one type (1 = Bezier) is supported.

`num_path_points` :

The number of elements in the array, i.e. the number of points in the path * 3. Each point is made up of (x, y, type) of floats. Currently only the creation of bezier curves is allowed. The type parameter must be set to (1) to indicate a BEZIER type curve. Note that for BEZIER curves, points must be given in the following order: ACCACCAC... If the path is not closed the last control point is missed off. Points consist of three control points (control/anchor/control) so for a curve that is not closed there must be at least two points passed (2 x,y pairs). If (num_path_points/3) % 3 = 0 then the path is assumed to be closed and the points are ACCACCACCACC.

`points_pairs` : | The points in the path represented as 3 floats. The first is the x pos, next is the y pos, last is the type of the pnt. The type field is dependant on the path type. For beziers (type 1 paths) the type can either be (1.0 = BEZIER_ANCHOR, 2.0 = BEZIER_CONTROL, 3.0= BEZIER_MOVE). Note all points are returned in pixel resolution.
Returns : | TRUE on success.

### gimp_path_stroke_current ()

### Warning

`gimp_path_stroke_current` is deprecated and should not be used in newly-written code. Use `gimp_edit_stroke_vectors()` instead.

`image_ID` : | The image which contains the path to stroke.
Returns : | TRUE on success.

### gimp_path_get_point_at_dist ()

    gint                gimp_path_get_point_at_dist         (gint32 image_ID,
