Details

GVfs

typedef struct _GVfs GVfs;

Virtual File System object.

g_vfs_get_file_for_path ()

GFile*              g_vfs_get_file_for_path             (GVfs *vfs,
                                                         const char *path);

Gets a GFile for path.

vfs :

 a GVfs.

path :

 a string containing a VFS path.

Returns :

 a GFile.

g_vfs_get_file_for_uri ()

GFile*              g_vfs_get_file_for_uri              (GVfs *vfs,
                                                         const char *uri);

Gets a GFile for uri.

This operation never fails, but the returned object might not support any I/O operation if the uri is malformed or if the uri type is not supported.

vfs :

 aGVfs.

uri :

 a string containing a URI path.

Returns :

 a GFile.

g_vfs_parse_name ()

GFile*              g_vfs_parse_name                    (GVfs *vfs,
                                                         const char *parse_name);

This operation never fails, but the returned object might not support any I/O operations if the parse_name cannot be parsed by the GVfs module.

vfs :

 a GVfs.

parse_name :

 a string to be parsed by the VFS module.

Returns :

 a GFile for the given parse_name.

g_vfs_get_default ()

GVfs*               g_vfs_get_default                   (void);

Gets the default GVfs for the system.

Returns :

 a GVfs.

g_vfs_get_local ()

GVfs*               g_vfs_get_local                     (void);

Gets the local GVfs for the system.

Returns :

 a GVfs.

g_vfs_is_active ()

gboolean            g_vfs_is_active                     (GVfs *vfs);

Checks if the VFS is active.

vfs :

 a GVfs.

Returns :

 TRUE if construction of the vfs was successful and it is now active.
