GioFileEnumeratorget_child

Declaration

GFile*
g_file_enumerator_get_child (
  GFileEnumerator* enumerator,
  GFileInfo* info
)

Description

Return a new GFile which refers to the file named by info in the source directory of enumerator. This function is primarily intended to be used inside loops with g_file_enumerator_next_file().

To use this, G_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_STANDARD_NAME must have been listed in the attributes list used when creating the GFileEnumerator.

This is a convenience method that’s equivalent to:

  gchar *name = g_file_info_get_name (info);
  GFile *child = g_file_get_child (g_file_enumerator_get_container (enumr),
                                   name);

Available since: 2.36

Return value
