Class

GioFileOutputStream

Description

class Gio.FileOutputStream : Gio.OutputStream {
  parent_instance: GOutputStream
}

GFileOutputStream provides output streams that write their content to a file.

GFileOutputStream implements GSeekable, which allows the output stream to jump to arbitrary positions in the file and to truncate the file, provided the filesystem of the file supports these operations.

To find the position of a file output stream, use g_seekable_tell(). To find out if a file output stream supports seeking, use g_seekable_can_seek().To position a file output stream, use g_seekable_seek(). To find out if a file output stream supports truncating, use g_seekable_can_truncate(). To truncate a file output stream, use g_seekable_truncate().

Implements

Instance methods

g_file_output_stream_get_etag

Gets the entity tag for the file when it has been written. This must be called after the stream has been written and closed, as the etag can change while writing.

g_file_output_stream_query_info

Queries a file output stream for the given attributes. This function blocks while querying the stream. For the asynchronous version of this function, see g_file_output_stream_query_info_async(). While the stream is blocked, the stream will set the pending flag internally, and any other operations on the stream will fail with G_IO_ERROR_PENDING.

g_file_output_stream_query_info_async

Asynchronously queries the stream for a GFileInfo. When completed, callback will be called with a GAsyncResult which can be used to finish the operation with g_file_output_stream_query_info_finish().

g_file_output_stream_query_info_finish

Finalizes the asynchronous query started by g_file_output_stream_query_info_async().

Methods inherited from GOutputStream (31)

Please see GOutputStream for a full list of methods.

Methods inherited from GObject (43)

Please see GObject for a full list of methods.

Methods inherited from GSeekable (5)
g_seekable_can_seek

Tests if the stream supports the GSeekableIface.

g_seekable_can_truncate

Tests if the length of the stream can be adjusted with g_seekable_truncate().

g_seekable_seek

Seeks in the stream by the given offset, modified by type.

g_seekable_tell

Tells the current position within the stream.

g_seekable_truncate

Sets the length of the stream to offset. If the stream was previously larger than offset, the extra data is discarded. If the stream was previously shorter than offset, it is extended with NUL (‘\0’) bytes.

Signals

Signals inherited from GObject (1)
GObject::notify

The notify signal is emitted on an object when one of its properties has its value set through g_object_set_property(), g_object_set(), et al.
