gio.unix_fdmessage

Module for UnixFDMessage class

Types 3

This gio.socket_control_message.SocketControlMessage contains a gio.unix_fdlist.UnixFDList. 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). The file descriptors are copied between processes by the kernel.

For an easier way to send and receive file descriptors over stream-oriented UNIX sockets, see gio.unix_connection.UnixConnection.sendFd and gio.unix_connection.UnixConnection.receiveFd.

Note that <gio/gunixfdmessage.h> belongs to the UNIX-specific GIO interfaces, thus you have to use the gio-unix-2.0.pc pkg-config file or the GioUnix-2.0 GIR namespace when using it.

Methods
GType _gType() @property
UnixFDMessage self()Returns `this`, for use in `with` statements.
UnixFDMessageGidBuilder builder()Get builder for [gio.unix_fdmessage.UnixFDMessage] Returns: New builder object
gio.unix_fdlist.UnixFDList fdList() @propertyGet `fdList` property. Returns: The [gio.unix_fdlist.UnixFDList] object to send with the message.
gio.unix_fdmessage.UnixFDMessage newWithFdList(gio.unix_fdlist.UnixFDList fdList)Creates a new #GUnixFDMessage containing list.
bool appendFd(int fd)Adds a file descriptor to message.
gio.unix_fdlist.UnixFDList getFdList()Gets the #GUnixFDList contained in message. This function does not return a reference to the caller, but the returned list is valid for the lifetime of message. Returns: the #GUnixFDList from message
int[] stealFds()Returns the array of file descriptors that is contained in this object.
Constructors
this(void * ptr, Flag!"Take" take)
this()Creates a new #GUnixFDMessage containing an empty file descriptor list. Returns: a new #GUnixFDMessage

Fluent builder implementation template for gio.unix_fdmessage.UnixFDMessage

Methods
T fdList(gio.unix_fdlist.UnixFDList propval)Set `fdList` property. Params: propval = The [gio.unix_fdlist.UnixFDList] object to send with the message. Returns: Builder instance for fluent chaining
Methods
UnixFDMessage build()Create object from builder. Returns: New object
