Method

GioDataInputStreamread_uint16

Declaration

guint16
g_data_input_stream_read_uint16 (
  GDataInputStream* stream,
  GCancellable* cancellable,
  GError** error
)

Description

Reads an unsigned 16-bit/2-byte value from stream.

In order to get the correct byte order for this read operation, see g_data_input_stream_get_byte_order() and g_data_input_stream_set_byte_order().

Parameters

cancellable

Type: GCancellable

Optional GCancellable object, NULL to ignore.

The argument can be NULL.
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 left initialized to NULL by the method 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: guint16

An unsigned 16-bit/2-byte value read from the stream or 0 if an error occurred.
