Declaration

g_file_query_settable_attributes (
  GFile* file,
  GCancellable* cancellable,
  GError** error
)

Description

Obtain the list of settable attributes for the file.

Returns the type and full attribute name of all the attributes that can be set on this file. This doesn’t mean setting it will always succeed though, you might get an access failure, or some specific file may not support a specific attribute.

If cancellable is not NULL, then the operation can be cancelled by triggering the cancellable object from another thread. If the operation was cancelled, the error G_IO_ERROR_CANCELLED will be returned.

Parameters

`cancellable`	`GCancellable`
	Optional `GCancellable` object, `NULL` to ignore.
	The argument can be `NULL`.
	The data is owned by the caller of the function.
`error`	`GError **`
	The return location for a `GError*`, or `NULL`.

Return value

Returns:	`GFileAttributeInfoList`
	A `GFileAttributeInfoList` describing the settable attributes. When you are done with it, release it with `g_file_attribute_info_list_unref()`
	The caller of the method takes ownership of the data, and is responsible for freeing it.
