Method

GLibSourceget_context

Declaration [src]

GMainContext*
g_source_get_context (
  GSource* source
)

Description [src]

Gets the GMainContext with which the source is associated.

You can call this on a source that has been destroyed, provided that the GMainContext it was attached to still exists (in which case it will return that GMainContext). In particular, you can always call this function on the source returned from g_main_current_source(). But calling this function on a source whose GMainContext has been destroyed is an error.

If the associated GMainContext could be destroy concurrently from a different thread, then this function is not safe to call and g_source_dup_context() should be used instead.

Return value

Type: GMainContext

The GMainContext with which the source is associated, or NULL if the context has not yet been added to a source.

The returned data is owned by the instance.

The return value can be NULL.
