Description

Details

GsfInputStdio

typedef struct _GsfInputStdio GsfInputStdio;


gsf_input_stdio_new ()

GsfInput*           gsf_input_stdio_new                 (char const *filename,
                                                         GError **err);

filename :

in utf8.

err :

optionally NULL.

Returns :

a new file or NULL.

gsf_input_stdio_new_FILE ()

GsfInput*           gsf_input_stdio_new_FILE            (char const *filename,
                                                         FILE *file,
                                                         gboolean keep_open);

Assumes ownership of file. If keep_open is true, ownership reverts to caller when the GsfObject is closed.

filename :

The filename corresponding to file.

file :

an existing stdio FILE *

keep_open :

Should file be closed when the wrapper is closed

Returns :

a new GsfInput wrapper for file. Note: the file must be seekable, so this will not work for stdin when that is a tty or pipe.

GsfOutputStdio

typedef struct _GsfOutputStdio GsfOutputStdio;


gsf_output_stdio_new ()

GsfOutput*          gsf_output_stdio_new                (char const *filename,
                                                         GError **err);

filename :

name of file to create or replace.

err :

optionally NULL.

Returns :

a new file or NULL.

gsf_output_stdio_new_full ()

GsfOutput*          gsf_output_stdio_new_full           (char const *filename,
                                                         GError **err,
                                                         char const *first_property_name,
                                                         ...);

filename :

name of file to create or replace.

err :

optionally NULL.

first_property_name :

NULL terminated list of properties

... :

Returns :

a new file or NULL.

gsf_output_stdio_new_valist ()

GsfOutput*          gsf_output_stdio_new_valist         (char const *filename,
                                                         GError **err,
                                                         char const *first_property_name,
                                                         va_list var_args);

filename :

err :

first_property_name :

var_args :

Returns :


gsf_output_stdio_new_FILE ()

GsfOutput*          gsf_output_stdio_new_FILE           (char const *filename,
                                                         FILE *file,
                                                         gboolean keep_open);

Assumes ownership of file. If keep_open is true, ownership reverts to caller when the GsfObject is closed.

filename :

The filename corresponding to file.

file :

an existing stdio FILE *

keep_open :

Should file be closed when the wrapper is closed

Returns :

a new GsfOutput wrapper for file. Warning: the result will be seekable only if file is seekable. If it is seekable, the resulting GsfOutput object will seek relative to file's beginning, not its current location at the time the GsfOutput object is created.
