Class

GioIOModule

Description

final class Gio.IOModule : GObject.TypeModule {
  /* No available fields */
}

Provides an interface and default functions for loading and unloading modules. This is used internally to make GIO extensible, but can also be used by others to implement module loading.

Ancestors

Implements

Constructors

g_io_module_new

Creates a new GIOModule that will load the specific shared library when in use.

Functions

g_io_module_query

Optional API for GIO modules to implement.

since: 2.24

Instance methods

g_io_module_load

Required API for GIO modules to implement.

g_io_module_unload

Required API for GIO modules to implement.

Methods inherited from GTypeModule (7)
g_type_module_add_interface

Registers an additional interface for a type, whose interface lives in the given type plugin. If the interface was already registered for the type in this plugin, nothing will be done.

g_type_module_register_enum

Looks up or registers an enumeration that is implemented with a particular type plugin. If a type with name type_name was previously registered, the GType identifier for the type is returned, otherwise the type is newly registered, and the resulting GType identifier returned.

since: 2.6

g_type_module_register_flags

Looks up or registers a flags type that is implemented with a particular type plugin. If a type with name type_name was previously registered, the GType identifier for the type is returned, otherwise the type is newly registered, and the resulting GType identifier returned.

since: 2.6

g_type_module_register_type

Looks up or registers a type that is implemented with a particular type plugin. If a type with name type_name was previously registered, the GType identifier for the type is returned, otherwise the type is newly registered, and the resulting GType identifier returned.

g_type_module_set_name

Sets the name for a GTypeModule.

g_type_module_unuse

Decreases the use count of a GTypeModule by one. If the result is zero, the module will be unloaded. (However, the GTypeModule will not be freed, and types associated with the GTypeModule are not unregistered. Once a GTypeModule is initialized, it must exist forever.)

g_type_module_use

Increases the use count of a GTypeModule by one. If the use count was zero before, the plugin will be loaded. If loading the plugin fails, the use count is reset to its prior value.

Methods inherited from GTypePlugin (4)
g_type_plugin_complete_interface_info

Calls the complete_interface_info function from the GTypePluginClass of plugin. There should be no need to use this function outside of the GObject type system itself.

g_type_plugin_complete_type_info

Calls the complete_type_info function from the GTypePluginClass of plugin. There should be no need to use this function outside of the GObject type system itself.

g_type_plugin_unuse

Calls the unuse_plugin function from the GTypePluginClass of plugin. There should be no need to use this function outside of the GObject type system itself.

g_type_plugin_use

Calls the use_plugin function from the GTypePluginClass of plugin. There should be no need to use this function outside of the GObject type system itself.

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.
