Usage

gSocketCreateSource(object, condition, cancellable = NULL)

Arguments

object
condition
a GIOCondition mask to monitor
cancellable
a GCancellable or NULL

Value

GSource, free with gSourceUnref().

Details

The callback on the source is of the GSocketSourceFunc type. It is meaningless to specify G_IO_ERR or G_IO_HUP in condition; these conditions will always be reported output if they are true. cancellable if not NULL can be used to cancel the source, which will cause the source to trigger, reporting the current condition (which is likely 0 unless cancellation happened at the same time as a condition change). You can check for this in the callback using gCancellableIsCancelled. Since 2.22
