g_subprocess_newv (
  const gchar* const* argv,
  GSubprocessFlags flags,
  GError** error
)

Description [src]

Create a new process with the given flags and argument list.

The argument list is expected to be NULL-terminated.

Available since: 2.40

This constructor is renamed to () in language bindings.

Parameters

argv

Type: An array of filename

Commandline arguments for the subprocess.

The array must be NULL-terminated.

The data is owned by the caller of the function.

Each element is a platform-native string, using the preferred OS encoding on Unix and UTF-8 on Windows..

flags

Type: GSubprocessFlags

Flags that define the behaviour of the subprocess.

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 constructor 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: GSubprocess

A newly created GSubprocess, or NULL on error (and error will be set).

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