Hi;

creating GObject classes with modern best practices is matter of calling:

  G_DECLARE_FINAL_TYPE

or:

  G_DECLARE_DERIVABLE_TYPE

in your header file, and:

  G_DEFINE_TYPE

in your source file. Anything else is usually dependent on what your
class is going to contain; properties? Signals? A custom constructor?
Private data? A singleton pattern for g_object_new()?

Templating will get you only as far as you're going to make the
template flexible enough.

You probably want to look at GNOME Builder's snippet functionality, if
you want to generate code.

Additionally, we had a UI tool ages ago called "Turbine", which was
fairly flexible:

https://git.gnome.org//browse/turbine

You could fork it and update its templates. to follow best practices

In general, though, I don't think we're going to have this tool
shipped as part of GLib; after all, we have never landed an interface
definition language to generate code either.

Ciao,
 Emmanuele.
