Class
GioUnixSocketAddress
Description
class Gio.UnixSocketAddress : Gio.SocketAddress {
parent_instance: GSocketAddress
}Support for UNIX-domain (also known as local) sockets, corresponding to
struct sockaddr_un.
UNIX domain sockets are generally visible in the filesystem.
However, some systems support abstract socket names which are not
visible in the filesystem and not affected by the filesystem
permissions, visibility, etc. Currently this is only supported
under Linux. If you attempt to use abstract sockets on other
systems, function calls may return G_IO_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED
errors. You can use g_unix_socket_address_abstract_names_supported()
to see if abstract names are supported.
Since GLib 2.72, GUnixSocketAddress is available on all platforms. It
requires underlying system support (such as Windows 10 with AF_UNIX) at
run time.
Before GLib 2.72, <gio/gunixsocketaddress.h> belonged to the UNIX-specific
GIO interfaces, thus you had to use the gio-unix-2.0.pc pkg-config file
when using it. This is no longer necessary since GLib 2.72.
Constructors
g_unix_socket_address_new_abstract
Creates a new G_UNIX_SOCKET_ADDRESS_ABSTRACT_PADDED
GUnixSocketAddress for path.
deprecated: Unknown
g_unix_socket_address_new_with_type
Creates a new GUnixSocketAddress of type type with name path.
since: 2.26
Functions
g_unix_socket_address_abstract_names_supported
Checks if abstract UNIX domain socket names are supported.
since: 2.22
Instance methods
Methods inherited from GSocketAddress (3)
g_socket_address_get_family
Gets the socket family type of address.
since: 2.22
g_socket_address_get_native_size
Gets the size of address‘s native struct sockaddr.
You can use this to allocate memory to pass to g_socket_address_to_native().
since: 2.22
g_socket_address_to_native
Converts a GSocketAddress to a native struct sockaddr, which can
be passed to low-level functions like connect() or bind().
since: 2.22
Methods inherited from GSocketConnectable (3)
g_socket_connectable_enumerate
Creates a GSocketAddressEnumerator for connectable.
since: 2.22
g_socket_connectable_proxy_enumerate
Creates a GSocketAddressEnumerator for connectable that will
return a GProxyAddress for each of its addresses that you must connect
to via a proxy.
since: 2.26
g_socket_connectable_to_string
Format a GSocketConnectable as a string. This is a human-readable format for
use in debugging output, and is not a stable serialization format. It is not
suitable for use in user interfaces as it exposes too much information for a user.
since: 2.48
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.
