Method
GLibSourceset_dispose_function
since: 2.64
Description
Set dispose
as dispose function on source
. dispose
will be called once
the reference count of source
reaches 0 but before any of the state of the
source is freed, especially before the finalize function is called.
This means that at this point source
is still a valid GSource
and it is
allow for the reference count to increase again until dispose
returns.
The dispose function can be used to clear any “weak” references to the
source
in other data structures in a thread-safe way where it is possible
for another thread to increase the reference count of source
again while
it is being freed.
The finalize function can not be used for this purpose as at that point
source
is already partially freed and not valid anymore.
This should only ever be called from GSource
implementations.
Available since: 2.64
