Detailed Description

FileInputStream provides input streams that take their content from a file.

FileInputStream implements Seekable, which allows the input stream to jump to arbitrary positions in the file, provided the file system of the file allows it. Use the methods of the Seekable base class for seeking and positioning.

Since glibmm 2.16:

Member Function Documentation

static GType Gio::FileInputStream::get_type ( )
static

Get the GType for this class, for use with the underlying GObject type system.

GFileInputStream* Gio::FileInputStream::gobj ( )
inline

Provides access to the underlying C GObject.

const GFileInputStream* Gio::FileInputStream::gobj ( ) const
inline

Provides access to the underlying C GObject.

GFileInputStream* Gio::FileInputStream::gobj_copy ( )

Provides access to the underlying C instance. The caller is responsible for unrefing it. Use when directly setting fields in structs.

Glib::RefPtr<FileInfo> Gio::FileInputStream::query_info ( const Glib::RefPtr< Cancellable >&  cancellable,
const std::string attributes = "*" 
)

Queries a file input stream the given attributes.

This function blocks while querying the stream. For the asynchronous (non-blocking) version of this function, see query_info_async(). While the stream is blocked, the stream will set the pending flag internally, and any other operations on the stream will throw a Gio::Error with PENDING.

Parameters
attributesA file attribute query string.
cancellableA Cancellable object.
Returns
A FileInfo, or an empty RefPtr on error.
Glib::RefPtr<FileInfo> Gio::FileInputStream::query_info ( const std::string attributes = "*")

Queries a file input stream the given attributes.

This function blocks while querying the stream. For the asynchronous (non-blocking) version of this function, see query_info_async(). While the stream is blocked, the stream will set the pending flag internally, and any other operations on the stream will throw a Gio::Error with PENDING.

Parameters
attributesA file attribute query string.
Returns
A FileInfo, or an empty RefPtr on error.
void Gio::FileInputStream::query_info_async ( const SlotAsyncReady slot,
const Glib::RefPtr< Cancellable >&  cancellable,
const std::string attributes = "*",
int  io_priority = Glib::PRIORITY_DEFAULT 
)

Queries the stream information asynchronously.

For the synchronous version of this function, see query_info().

The operation can be cancelled by triggering the cancellable object from another thread. If the operation was cancelled, a Gio::Error with CANCELLED will be thrown.

When the operation is finished, slot will be called. You can then call query_info_finish() to get the result of the operation.

Parameters
slotA callback slot which will be called when the request is satisfied.
cancellableA Cancellable object which can be used to cancel the operation.
attributesA file attribute query string.
io_priorityThe I/O priority of the request.
void Gio::FileInputStream::query_info_async ( const SlotAsyncReady slot,
const std::string attributes = "*",
int  io_priority = Glib::PRIORITY_DEFAULT 
)

Queries the stream information asynchronously.

For the synchronous version of this function, see query_info().

When the operation is finished, slot will be called. You can then call query_info_finish() to get the result of the operation.

Parameters
slotA callback slot which will be called when the request is satisfied.
attributesA file attribute query string.
io_priorityThe I/O priority of the request.
Glib::RefPtr<FileInfo> Gio::FileInputStream::query_info_finish ( const Glib::RefPtr< AsyncResult >&  result)

Finishes an asynchronous info query operation.

Parameters
resultA AsyncResult.
Returns
FileInfo.

Parameters
