void
g_main_context_set_poll_func (

Description

Sets the function to use to handle polling of file descriptors. It will be used instead of the poll() system call (or GLib’s replacement function, which is used where poll() isn’t available).

This function could possibly be used to integrate the GLib event loop with an external event loop.

This method is not directly available to language bindings.

Type: GPollFunc

The function to call to poll all file descriptors.
