Drop.readValueAsync

Asynchronously request the drag operation's contents converted to the given type.

When the operation is finished callback will be called. You must then call gdk.drop.Drop.readValueFinish to get the resulting gobject.value.Value.

ioPriority int

the I/O priority of the request.
