Method

GioSubprocesscommunicate_utf8

Declaration [src]

gboolean
g_subprocess_communicate_utf8 (
  GSubprocess* subprocess,
  const char* stdin_buf,
  GCancellable* cancellable,
  char** stdout_buf,
  char** stderr_buf,
  GError** error
)

Description [src]

Like g_subprocess_communicate(), but validates the output of the process as UTF-8, and returns it as a regular NUL terminated string.

On error, stdout_buf and stderr_buf will be set to undefined values and should not be used.

Parameters

stdin_buf
