GUnixOutputStream

GUnixOutputStream — Streaming output operations for UNIX file descriptors

Functions

Properties

gboolean close-fd Read / Write
gint fd Read / Write / Construct Only

Types and Values

Object Hierarchy

    GObject
    ╰── GOutputStream
        ╰── GUnixOutputStream

Implemented Interfaces

GUnixOutputStream implements GPollableOutputStream and GFileDescriptorBased.

Includes

#include <gio/gunixoutputstream.h>

Description

GUnixOutputStream implements GOutputStream for writing to a UNIX file descriptor, including asynchronous operations. (If the file descriptor refers to a socket or pipe, this will use poll() to do asynchronous I/O. If it refers to a regular file, it will fall back to doing asynchronous I/O in another thread.)

Note that <gio/gunixoutputstream.h> belongs to the UNIX-specific GIO interfaces, thus you have to use the gio-unix-2.0.pc pkg-config file when using it.

Functions

g_unix_output_stream_new ()

GOutputStream *
g_unix_output_stream_new (gint fd,
                          gboolean close_fd);

Creates a new GUnixOutputStream for the given fd .

If close_fd , is TRUE, the file descriptor will be closed when the output stream is destroyed.

Parameters

fd

a UNIX file descriptor

 

close_fd

TRUE to close the file descriptor when done

 

Returns

a new GOutputStream


g_unix_output_stream_set_close_fd ()

void
g_unix_output_stream_set_close_fd (GUnixOutputStream *stream,
                                   gboolean close_fd);

Sets whether the file descriptor of stream shall be closed when the stream is closed.

Parameters

stream

a GUnixOutputStream

 

close_fd

TRUE to close the file descriptor when done

 

Since: 2.20


g_unix_output_stream_get_close_fd ()

gboolean
g_unix_output_stream_get_close_fd (GUnixOutputStream *stream);

Returns whether the file descriptor of stream will be closed when the stream is closed.

Parameters

stream

a GUnixOutputStream

 

Returns

TRUE if the file descriptor is closed when done

Since: 2.20


g_unix_output_stream_get_fd ()

gint
g_unix_output_stream_get_fd (GUnixOutputStream *stream);

Return the UNIX file descriptor that the stream writes to.

Parameters

stream

a GUnixOutputStream

 

Returns

The file descriptor of stream

Since: 2.20

Types and Values

struct GUnixOutputStream

struct GUnixOutputStream;

Implements GOutputStream for outputting to selectable unix file descriptors
