Struct
EDataServerAsyncClosure
since: 3.6
Description [src]
struct EAsyncClosure {
/* No available fields */
}
EAsyncClosure provides a simple way to run an asynchronous function
synchronously without blocking a running GMainLoop or using threads.
1) Create an EAsyncClosure with e_async_closure_new().
2) Call the asynchronous function passing e_async_closure_callback() as the GAsyncReadyCallback argument and the EAsyncClosure as the data argument.
3) Call e_async_closure_wait() and collect the GAsyncResult.
4) Call the corresponding asynchronous “finish” function, passing the
GAsyncResult returned by e_async_closure_wait().
5) If needed, repeat steps 2-4 for additional asynchronous functions
using the same EAsyncClosure.
6) Finally, free the EAsyncClosure with e_async_closure_free().

Functions
e_async_closure_callback
Pass this function as the GAsyncReadyCallback argument of an asynchronous
function, and the EAsyncClosure as the data argument.
since: 3.6
e_async_closure_new_with_context
Creates a new EAsyncClosure for use with asynchronous functions
using the context as the main context.
since: 3.40
Instance methods
e_async_closure_wait
Call this function immediately after starting an asynchronous operation.
The function waits for the asynchronous operation to complete and returns its GAsyncResult to be passed to the operation’s “finish” function.
