GioSocketConnection

Description 

class Gio.SocketConnection : Gio.IOStream {
  parent_instance: GIOStream,
  priv: GSocketConnectionPrivate*
}

GSocketConnection is a GIOStream for a connected socket. They can be created either by GSocketClient when connecting to a host, or by GSocketListener when accepting a new client.

The type of the GSocketConnection object returned from these calls depends on the type of the underlying socket that is in use. For instance, for a TCP/IP connection it will be a GTcpConnection.

Choosing what type of object to construct is done with the socket connection factory, and it is possible for third parties to register custom socket connection types for specific combination of socket family/type/protocol using g_socket_connection_factory_register_type().

To close a GSocketConnection, use g_io_stream_close(). Closing both substreams of the GIOStream separately will not close the underlying GSocket.

Instance methods

g_socket_connection_connect

Connect connection to the specified remote address.

since: 2.32

g_socket_connection_connect_async

Asynchronously connect connection to the specified remote address.

since: 2.32

g_socket_connection_connect_finish

Gets the result of a g_socket_connection_connect_async() call.

since: 2.32

g_socket_connection_get_local_address

Try to get the local address of a socket connection.

since: 2.22

g_socket_connection_get_remote_address

Try to get the remote address of a socket connection.

since: 2.22

g_socket_connection_get_socket

Gets the underlying GSocket object of the connection. This can be useful if you want to do something unusual on it not supported by the GSocketConnection APIs.

since: 2.22

g_socket_connection_is_connected

Checks if connection is connected. This is equivalent to calling g_socket_is_connected() on connection‘s underlying GSocket.

Methods inherited from GIOStream (10)
g_io_stream_clear_pending

Clears the pending flag on stream.

since: 2.22

g_io_stream_close

Closes the stream, releasing resources related to it. This will also close the individual input and output streams, if they are not already closed.

since: 2.22

g_io_stream_close_async

Requests an asynchronous close of the stream, releasing resources related to it. When the operation is finished callback will be called. You can then call g_io_stream_close_finish() to get the result of the operation.

since: 2.22

g_io_stream_close_finish

Closes a stream.

since: 2.22

g_io_stream_get_input_stream

Gets the input stream for this object. This is used for reading.

since: 2.22

g_io_stream_get_output_stream

Gets the output stream for this object. This is used for writing.

since: 2.22

g_io_stream_has_pending

Checks if a stream has pending actions.

since: 2.22

g_io_stream_is_closed

Checks if a stream is closed.

since: 2.22

g_io_stream_set_pending

Sets stream to have actions pending. If the pending flag is already set or stream is closed, it will return FALSE and set error.

since: 2.22

g_io_stream_splice_async

Asynchronously splice the output stream of stream1 to the input stream of stream2, and splice the output stream of stream2 to the input stream of stream1.

since: 2.28
