GUnixInputStream

GUnixInputStream — Streaming input operations for Unix file descriptors

Synopsis


#include <gio/gunixinputstream.h>

                    GUnixInputStream;
GInputStream*       g_unix_input_stream_new             (int fd,
                                                         gboolean close_fd_at_close);

Description

GUnixInputStream implements GInputStream for reading from a unix file descriptor, including asynchronous operations. The file descriptor must be selectable, so it doesn't work with opened files.

Details

GUnixInputStream

typedef struct _GUnixInputStream GUnixInputStream;

Implements GInputStream for reading from selectable unix file descriptors

g_unix_input_stream_new ()

GInputStream*       g_unix_input_stream_new             (int fd,
                                                         gboolean close_fd_at_close);

Creates a new GUnixInputStream for the given fd. If close_fd_at_close is TRUE, the file descriptor will be closed when the stream is closed.

fd : unix file descriptor.
close_fd_at_close : a gboolean.
Returns : a GUnixInputStream.
