Virtual Method
GioBufferedInputStreamfill
Declaration [src]
gssize
fill (
GBufferedInputStream* stream,
gssize count,
GCancellable* cancellable,
GError** error
)
Description [src]
Tries to read count
bytes from the stream into the buffer.
Will block during this read.
If count
is zero, returns zero and does nothing. A value of count
larger than G_MAXSSIZE
will cause a
G_IO_ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT
error.
On success, the number of bytes read into the buffer is returned.
It is not an error if this is not the same as the requested size, as it
can happen e.g. near the end of a file. Zero is returned on end of file
(or if count
is zero), but never otherwise.
If count
is -1 then the attempted read size is equal to the number of
bytes that are required to fill the buffer.
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.
If an operation was partially finished when the operation was cancelled the
partial result will be returned, without an error.
On error -1
is returned and error
is set accordingly.
For the asynchronous, non-blocking, version of this function, see
g_buffered_input_stream_fill_async()
.
Parameters
count
-
Type:
gssize
The number of bytes that will be read from the stream.
cancellable
-
Type:
GCancellable
Optional
GCancellable
object,NULL
to ignore.The argument can be NULL
.The data is owned by the caller of the method. 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 aNULL
GError*
.The argument will be left initialized to NULL
by the virtual function 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.
