Detailed Description

PollableInputStream - Interface for pollable input streams.

PollableInputStream is implemented by InputStreams that can be polled for readiness to read. This can be used when interfacing with a non-GIO API that expects UNIX-file-descriptor-style asynchronous I/O rather than GIO-style.

Since glibmm 2.34:

Member Function Documentation

static void Gio::PollableInputStream::add_interface ( GType  gtype_implementer)
static
bool Gio::PollableInputStream::can_poll ( ) const

Checks if stream is actually pollable.

Some classes may implement PollableInputStream but have only certain instances of that class be pollable. If this method returns false, then the behavior of other PollableInputStream methods is undefined.

For any given stream, the value returned by this method is constant; a stream cannot switch from pollable to non-pollable or vice versa.

Since glibmm 2.28:
Returns
true if stream is pollable, false if not.
virtual bool Gio::PollableInputStream::can_poll_vfunc ( ) const
protectedvirtual
static GType Gio::PollableInputStream::get_type ( )
static

Get the GType for this class, for use with the underlying GObject type system.

GPollableInputStream* Gio::PollableInputStream::gobj ( )
inline

Provides access to the underlying C GObject.

const GPollableInputStream* Gio::PollableInputStream::gobj ( ) const
inline

Provides access to the underlying C GObject.

bool Gio::PollableInputStream::is_readable ( ) const

Checks if stream can be read.

Note that some stream types may not be able to implement this 100% reliably, and it is possible that a call to g_input_stream_read() after this returns true would still block. To guarantee non-blocking behavior, you should always use g_pollable_input_stream_read_nonblocking(), which will return a Gio::Error::WOULD_BLOCK error rather than blocking.

Since glibmm 2.28:
Returns
true if stream is readable, false if not. If an error has occurred on stream, this will result in g_pollable_input_stream_is_readable() returning true, and the next attempt to read will return the error.
virtual bool Gio::PollableInputStream::is_readable_vfunc ( ) const
protectedvirtual
PollableInputStream& Gio::PollableInputStream::operator= ( PollableInputStream&&  src)
noexcept
gssize Gio::PollableInputStream::read_nonblocking ( void *  buffer,
gsize  count,
const Glib::RefPtr< Cancellable >&  cancellable 
)

Attempts to read up to count bytes from stream into buffer, as with g_input_stream_read().

If stream is not currently readable, this will immediately return Gio::Error::WOULD_BLOCK, and you can use g_pollable_input_stream_create_source() to create a Source that will be triggered when stream is readable.

Note that since this method never blocks, you cannot actually use cancellable to cancel it. However, it will return an error if cancellable has already been cancelled when you call, which may happen if you call this method after a source triggers due to having been cancelled.

Virtual: read_nonblocking

Parameters
bufferA buffer to read data into (which should be at least count bytes long).
countThe number of bytes you want to read.
cancellableA Cancellable, or nullptr.
Returns
The number of bytes read, or -1 on error (including Gio::Error::WOULD_BLOCK).
Exceptions
Glib::Error
gssize Gio::PollableInputStream::read_nonblocking ( void *  buffer,
gsize  count 
)

A read_nonblocking() convenience overload.
