Declaration [src]
void
g_source_set_name (
GSource* source,
const char* name
)
Description [src]
Sets a name for the source, used in debugging and profiling.
The name defaults to NULL.
The source name should describe in a human-readable way what the source does. For example, “X11 event queue” or “GTK repaint idle handler” or whatever it is.
It is permitted to call this function multiple times, but is not
recommended due to the potential performance impact. For example,
one could change the name in the “check” function of a GSourceFuncs
to include details like the event type in the source name.
Use caution if changing the name while another thread may be
accessing it with g_source_get_name(); that function does not copy
the value, and changing the value will free it while the other thread
may be attempting to use it.
Also see g_source_set_static_name().
