FileIOStream

GFileIOStream provides io streams that both read and write to the same file handle.

GFileIOStream implements GSeekable, which allows the io stream to jump to arbitrary positions in the file and to truncate the file, provided the filesystem of the file supports these operations.

To find the position of a file io stream, use g_seekable_tell().

To find out if a file io stream supports seeking, use g_seekable_can_seek(). To position a file io stream, use g_seekable_seek(). To find out if a file io stream supports truncating, use g_seekable_can_truncate(). To truncate a file io stream, use g_seekable_truncate().

The default implementation of all the gio.FileIOStream operations and the implementation of GSeekable just call into the same operations on the output stream.

class FileIOStream : IOStream , SeekableIF {

protected

GFileIOStream* gFileIOStream;

GFileIOStream* getFileIOStreamStruct(bool transferOwnership);

void* getStruct();

this(GFileIOStream* gFileIOStream, bool ownedRef);

static GType getType();

string getEtag();

FileInfo queryInfo(string attributes, Cancellable cancellable);

void queryInfoAsync(string attributes, int ioPriority, Cancellable cancellable, GAsyncReadyCallback callback, void* userData);

FileInfo queryInfoFinish(AsyncResultIF result);

}

Constructors

this this(GFileIOStream* gFileIOStream, bool ownedRef): Sets our main struct and passes it to the parent class.

Functions

getEtag string getEtag(): Gets the entity tag for the file when it has been written. This must be called after the stream has been written and closed, as the etag can change while writing.
getFileIOStreamStruct GFileIOStream* getFileIOStreamStruct(bool transferOwnership): Get the main Gtk struct
getStruct void* getStruct(): the main Gtk struct as a void*
queryInfo FileInfo queryInfo(string attributes, Cancellable cancellable): Queries a file io stream for the given attributes. This function blocks while querying the stream. For the asynchronous version of this function, see g_file_io_stream_query_info_async(). While the stream is blocked, the stream will set the pending flag internally, and any other operations on the stream will fail with G_IO_ERROR_PENDING.
queryInfoAsync void queryInfoAsync(string attributes, int ioPriority, Cancellable cancellable, GAsyncReadyCallback callback, void* userData): Asynchronously queries the stream for a gio.FileInfo When completed, callback will be called with a GAsyncResult which can be used to finish the operation with g_file_io_stream_query_info_finish().
queryInfoFinish FileInfo queryInfoFinish(AsyncResultIF result): Finalizes the asynchronous query started by g_file_io_stream_query_info_async().

From IOStream

gIOStream GIOStream* gIOStream;: the main Gtk struct
getIOStreamStruct GIOStream* getIOStreamStruct(bool transferOwnership): Get the main Gtk struct
getStruct void* getStruct(): the main Gtk struct as a void*
getType GType getType()
spliceFinish bool spliceFinish(AsyncResultIF result): Finishes an asynchronous io stream splice operation.
clearPending void clearPending(): Clears the pending flag on stream.
close bool close(Cancellable cancellable): Closes the stream, releasing resources related to it. This will also close the individual input and output streams, if they are not already closed.
closeAsync void closeAsync(int ioPriority, Cancellable cancellable, GAsyncReadyCallback callback, void* userData): Requests an asynchronous close of the stream, releasing resources related to it. When the operation is finished callback will be called. You can then call g_io_stream_close_finish() to get the result of the operation.
closeFinish bool closeFinish(AsyncResultIF result): Closes a stream.
getInputStream InputStream getInputStream(): Gets the input stream for this object. This is used for reading.
getOutputStream OutputStream getOutputStream(): Gets the output stream for this object. This is used for writing.
hasPending bool hasPending(): Checks if a stream has pending actions.
isClosed bool isClosed(): Checks if a stream is closed.
setPending bool setPending(): Sets stream to have actions pending. If the pending flag is already set or stream is closed, it will return FALSE and set error.
spliceAsync void spliceAsync(IOStream stream2, GIOStreamSpliceFlags flags, int ioPriority, Cancellable cancellable, GAsyncReadyCallback callback, void* userData): Asyncronously splice the output stream of stream1 to the input stream of stream2, and splice the output stream of stream2 to the input stream of stream1.

From SeekableIF

getSeekableStruct GSeekable* getSeekableStruct(bool transferOwnership): Get the main Gtk struct
getStruct void* getStruct(): the main Gtk struct as a void*
getType GType getType()
canSeek bool canSeek(): Tests if the stream supports the GSeekableIface
canTruncate bool canTruncate(): Tests if the length of the stream can be adjusted with g_seekable_truncate().
seek bool seek(long offset, GSeekType type, Cancellable cancellable): Seeks in the stream by the given offset, modified by type.
tell long tell(): Tells the current position within the stream.
truncate bool truncate(long offset, Cancellable cancellable): Sets the length of the stream to offset. If the stream was previously larger than offset, the extra data is discarded. If the stream was previouly shorter than offset, it is extended with NUL ('\0') bytes.
