Description

A GtkSourceFileLoader object permits to load the contents of a GFile or a GInputStream into a GtkSourceBuffer.

A file loader should be used only for one load operation, including errors handling. If an error occurs, you can reconfigure the loader and relaunch the operation with gtk_source_file_loader_load_async().

Running a GtkSourceFileLoader is an undoable action for the GtkSourceBuffer. That is, gtk_source_buffer_begin_not_undoable_action() and gtk_source_buffer_end_not_undoable_action() are called, which delete the undo/redo history.

After a file loading, the buffer is reset to the contents provided by the GFile or GInputStream, so the buffer is set as “unmodified”, that is, gtk_text_buffer_set_modified() is called with FALSE. If the contents isn't saved somewhere (for example if you load from stdin), then you should probably call gtk_text_buffer_set_modified() with TRUE after calling gtk_source_file_loader_load_finish().

This class is no longer maintained, patches are not accepted. There is work in progress in the Tepl library to have a better implementation.

Functions

gtk_source_file_loader_new ()

GtkSourceFileLoader *
gtk_source_file_loader_new (GtkSourceBuffer *buffer,
                            GtkSourceFile *file);

Creates a new GtkSourceFileLoader object. The contents is read from the GtkSourceFile's location. If not already done, call gtk_source_file_set_location() before calling this constructor. The previous location is anyway not needed, because as soon as the file loading begins, the buffer is emptied.

Parameters

buffer

the GtkSourceBuffer to load the contents into.

  

file

the GtkSourceFile.

  

Returns

a new GtkSourceFileLoader object.

Since: 3.14

gtk_source_file_loader_new_from_stream ()

GtkSourceFileLoader *
gtk_source_file_loader_new_from_stream
                               (GtkSourceBuffer *buffer,
                                GtkSourceFile *file,
                                GInputStream *stream);

Creates a new GtkSourceFileLoader object. The contents is read from stream .

Parameters

buffer

the GtkSourceBuffer to load the contents into.

  

file

the GtkSourceFile.

  

stream

the GInputStream to load, e.g. stdin.

  

Returns

a new GtkSourceFileLoader object.

Since: 3.14

gtk_source_file_loader_set_candidate_encodings ()

void
gtk_source_file_loader_set_candidate_encodings
                               (GtkSourceFileLoader *loader,
                                GSList *candidate_encodings);

Sets the candidate encodings for the file loading. The encodings are tried in the same order as the list.

For convenience, candidate_encodings can contain duplicates. Only the first occurrence of a duplicated encoding is kept in the list.

By default the candidate encodings are (in that order in the list):

  1. If set, the GtkSourceFile's encoding as returned by gtk_source_file_get_encoding().

  2. The default candidates as returned by gtk_source_encoding_get_default_candidates().

Parameters

loader

a GtkSourceFileLoader.

  

candidate_encodings

a list of GtkSourceEncodings.

Property Details

The “buffer” property

  “buffer”                   GtkSourceBuffer *

The GtkSourceBuffer to load the contents into. The GtkSourceFileLoader object has a weak reference to the buffer.

Flags: Read / Write / Construct Only

Since: 3.14

The “file” property

  “file”                     GtkSourceFile *

The GtkSourceFile. The GtkSourceFileLoader object has a weak reference to the file.

Flags: Read / Write / Construct Only

Since: 3.14

The “input-stream” property

  “input-stream”             GInputStream *

The GInputStream to load. Useful for reading stdin. If this property is set, the “location” property is ignored.

Flags: Read / Write / Construct Only

Since: 3.14

The “location” property

  “location”                 GFile *
