Description

Functions

nm_remote_connection_error_quark ()

GQuark
nm_remote_connection_error_quark (void);

Registers an error quark for NMRemoteConnection if necessary.

Returns

the error quark used for NMRemoteConnection errors.


NMRemoteConnectionResultFunc ()

void
(*NMRemoteConnectionResultFunc) (NMRemoteConnection *connection,

                                 gpointer user_data);

Called when NetworkManager has finished an asynchronous operation on a connection, like commit changes, deleting, saving, etc.

Parameters

connection

the connection for which an operation was performed

 

error

on failure, a descriptive error

 

user_data

user data passed to function which began the operation

 

NMRemoteConnectionGetSecretsFunc ()

void
(*NMRemoteConnectionGetSecretsFunc) (NMRemoteConnection *connection,

                                     gpointer user_data);

Called when NetworkManager returns secrets in response to a request for secrets via nm_remote_connection_get_secrets().

Parameters

connection

the connection for which secrets were requested

 

secrets

on success, a hash table of hash tables, with each inner hash mapping a setting property to a GValue containing that property's value.

[element-type utf8 GLib.HashTable]

error

on failure, a descriptive error

 

user_data

user data passed to nm_remote_connection_get_secrets()

callback

a function to be called when the save completes.

[scope async][allow-none]

user_data

caller-specific data to be passed to callback .

[closure]
