Method

GLibVariantstore

since: 2.24

Declaration

void
g_variant_store (
  GVariant* value,
  gpointer data
)

Description

Stores the serialized form of value at data. data should be large enough. See g_variant_get_size().

The stored data is in machine native byte order but may not be in fully-normalised form if read from an untrusted source. See g_variant_get_normal_form() for a solution.

As with g_variant_get_data(), to be able to deserialize the serialized variant successfully, its type and (if the destination machine might be different) its endianness must also be available.

This function is approximately O(n) in the size of data.

Available since: 2.24

Parameters

data

Type: gpointer

The location to store the serialized data at.

The data is owned by the caller of the function.
