Function

GioResourcenew_from_data

since: 2.32

Declaration [src]

GResource*
g_resource_new_from_data (
  GBytes* data,
  GError** error
)

Description [src]

Creates a GResource from a reference to the binary resource bundle.

This will keep a reference to data while the resource lives, so the data should not be modified or freed.

If you want to use this resource in the global resource namespace you need to register it with g_resources_register().

Note: data must be backed by memory that is at least pointer aligned. Otherwise this function will internally create a copy of the memory since GLib 2.56, or in older versions fail and exit the process.

If data is empty or corrupt, G_RESOURCE_ERROR_INTERNAL will be returned.

Available since: 2.32

Parameters

data

Type: GBytes

A GBytes.

The data is owned by the caller of the function.

error

Type: GError **

The return location for a recoverable error.

The argument can be NULL.

If the return location is not NULL, then you must initialize it to a NULL GError*.

The argument will be left initialized to NULL by the function if there are no errors.

In case of error, the argument will be set to a newly allocated GError; the caller will take ownership of the data, and be responsible for freeing it.

Return value

Type: GResource

A new GResource, or NULL on error.

The caller of the function takes ownership of the data, and is responsible for freeing it.
