gCancellableReleaseFd: gCancellableReleaseFd
Description
Releases a resources previously allocated by gCancellableGetFd
or gCancellableMakePollfd()
.Usage
gCancellableReleaseFd(object)
Details
For compatibility reasons with older releases, calling this function
is not strictly required, the resources will be automatically freed
when the cancellable
is finalized. However, the cancellable
will
block scarce file descriptors until it is finalized if this function
is not called. This can cause the application to run out of file
descriptors when many GCancellables
are used at the same time.
Since 2.22
