GLibUriis_valid

since: 2.66

Declaration [src]

gboolean
g_uri_is_valid (
  const gchar* uri_string,
  GUriFlags flags,
  GError** error
)

Description [src]

Parses uri_string according to flags, to determine whether it is a valid absolute URI, i.e. it does not need to be resolved relative to another URI using g_uri_parse_relative().

If it’s not a valid URI, an error is returned explaining how it’s invalid.

See g_uri_split(), and the definition of GUriFlags, for more information on the effect of flags.

Available since: 2.66

Parameters

uri_string

Type: const gchar*

A string containing an absolute URI.

The data is owned by the caller of the function.

The value is a NUL terminated UTF-8 string.

flags

Type: GUriFlags

Flags for parsing uri_string.

error

Type: GError **

The return location for a recoverable error.

The argument can be NULL.

If the return location is not NULL, then you must initialize it to a NULL GError*.

The argument will be left initialized to NULL by the function if there are no errors.

In case of error, the argument will be set to a newly allocated GError; the caller will take ownership of the data, and be responsible for freeing it.

Return value

Type: gboolean

TRUE if uri_string is a valid absolute URI, FALSE on error.
