Declaration [src]

GFileAttributeMatcher*
g_file_attribute_matcher_subtract (

Description [src]

Subtracts all attributes of subtract from matcher and returns a matcher that supports those attributes.

Note that currently it is not possible to remove a single attribute when the matcher matches the whole namespace - or remove a namespace or attribute when the matcher matches everything. This is a limitation of the current implementation, but may be fixed in the future.
