gio.unix_credentials_message

Module for UnixCredentialsMessage class

class UnixCredentialsMessage UnixCredentialsMessageGidBuilder UnixCredentialsMessageGidBuilderImpl

Types 3

classUnixCredentialsMessage : gio.socket_control_message.SocketControlMessage

This gio.socket_control_message.SocketControlMessage contains a gio.credentials.Credentials instance. It may be sent using gio.socket.Socket.sendMessage and received using gio.socket.Socket.receiveMessage over UNIX sockets (ie: sockets in the gio.types.SocketFamily.Unix family).

For an easier way to send and receive credentials over stream-oriented UNIX sockets, see gio.unix_connection.UnixConnection.sendCredentials and gio.unix_connection.UnixConnection.receiveCredentials. To receive credentials of a foreign process connected to a socket, use gio.socket.Socket.getCredentials.

Since GLib 2.72, GUnixCredentialMessage is available on all platforms. It requires underlying system support (such as Windows 10 with AF_UNIX) at run time.

Before GLib 2.72, <gio/gunixcredentialsmessage.h> belonged to the UNIX-specific GIO interfaces, thus you had to use the gio-unix-2.0.pc pkg-config file when using it. This is no longer necessary since GLib 2.72.

Methods
GType _getGType()
GType _gType() @property
UnixCredentialsMessage self()Returns `this`, for use in `with` statements.
UnixCredentialsMessageGidBuilder builder()Get builder for [gio.unix_credentials_message.UnixCredentialsMessage] Returns: New builder object
gio.credentials.Credentials credentials() @propertyGet `credentials` property. Returns: The credentials stored in the message.
gio.unix_credentials_message.UnixCredentialsMessage newWithCredentials(gio.credentials.Credentials credentials)Creates a new #GUnixCredentialsMessage holding credentials.
bool isSupported()Checks if passing #GCredentials on a #GSocket is supported on this platform. Returns: true if supported, false otherwise
gio.credentials.Credentials getCredentials()Gets the credentials stored in message. Returns: A #GCredentials instance. Do not free, it is owned by message.
Constructors
