public class UnixFDList
extends GObject

A GUnixFDList contains a list of file descriptors. It owns the file descriptors that it contains, closing them when finalized.

It may be wrapped in a GUnixFDMessage and sent over a Socket in the G_SOCKET_FAMILY_UNIX family by using Socket.sendMessage(org.gnome.gio.SocketAddress, org.gnome.gio.OutputVector[], org.gnome.gio.SocketControlMessage[], int, org.gnome.gio.Cancellable) and received using Socket.receiveMessage(io.github.jwharm.javagi.base.Out<org.gnome.gio.SocketAddress>, org.gnome.gio.InputVector[], io.github.jwharm.javagi.base.Out<org.gnome.gio.SocketControlMessage[]>, io.github.jwharm.javagi.base.Out<java.lang.Integer>, org.gnome.gio.Cancellable).

Before 2.74, <gio/gunixfdlist.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.

Since 2.74, the API is available for Windows.

Constructor Details

UnixFDList

public UnixFDList(MemorySegment address)

Create a UnixFDList proxy instance for the provided memory address.

Parameters:

address - the memory address of the native object

UnixFDList

public UnixFDList()

Creates a new GUnixFDList containing no file descriptors.

Method Details

getType

public static Type getType()

Get the GType of the UnixFDList class

Returns:

the GType

getMemoryLayout

public static MemoryLayout getMemoryLayout()

The memory layout of the native struct.

Returns:

the memory layout

asParent

protected UnixFDList asParent()

Returns this instance as if it were its parent type. This is mostly synonymous to the Java super keyword, but will set the native typeclass function pointers to the parent type. When overriding a native virtual method in Java, "chaining up" with super.methodName() doesn't work, because it invokes the overridden function pointer again. To chain up, call asParent().methodName(). This will call the native function pointer of this virtual method in the typeclass of the parent type.

Overrides:

asParent in class GObject

fromArray

public static UnixFDList fromArray(int[] fds)

Creates a new GUnixFDList containing the file descriptors given in fds. The file descriptors become the property of the new list and may no longer be used by the caller. The array itself is owned by the caller.

Each file descriptor in the array should be set to close-on-exec.

If nFds is -1 then fds must be terminated with -1.

Parameters:

fds - the initial list of file descriptors

Returns:

a new GUnixFDList

append

public int append(int fd)
           throws GErrorException

Adds a file descriptor to this UnixFDList.

The file descriptor is duplicated using dup(). You keep your copy of the descriptor and the copy contained in this UnixFDList will be closed when this UnixFDList is finalized.

A possible cause of failure is exceeding the per-process or system-wide file descriptor limit.

The index of the file descriptor in the list is returned. If you use this index with g_unix_fd_list_get() then you will receive back a duplicated copy of the same file descriptor.

Parameters:

fd - a valid open file descriptor

Returns:

the index of the appended fd in case of success, else -1 (and error is set)

Throws:

GErrorException - see GError

get

public int get(int index)
        throws GErrorException

Gets a file descriptor out of this UnixFDList.

index specifies the index of the file descriptor to get. It is a programmer error for index to be out of range; see g_unix_fd_list_get_length().

The file descriptor is duplicated using dup() and set as close-on-exec before being returned. You must call close() on it when you are done.

A possible cause of failure is exceeding the per-process or system-wide file descriptor limit.

Parameters:

index - the index into the list

Returns:

the file descriptor, or -1 in case of error

Throws:

GErrorException - see GError

getLength

public int getLength()

Gets the length of this UnixFDList (ie: the number of file descriptors contained within).

Returns:

the length of this UnixFDList

peekFds

public int[] peekFds()

Returns the array of file descriptors that is contained in this object.

After this call, the descriptors remain the property of this UnixFDList. The caller must not close them and must not free the array. The array is valid only until this UnixFDList is changed in any way.

If length is non-null then it is set to the number of file descriptors in the returned array. The returned array is also terminated with -1.

This function never returns null. In case there are no file descriptors contained in this UnixFDList, an empty array is returned.

Returns:

an array of file descriptors

stealFds

public int[] stealFds()

Returns the array of file descriptors that is contained in this object.

After this call, the descriptors are no longer contained in this UnixFDList. Further calls will return an empty list (unless more descriptors have been added).

The return result of this function must be freed with g_free(). The caller is also responsible for closing all of the file descriptors. The file descriptors in the array are set to close-on-exec.

If length is non-null then it is set to the number of file descriptors in the returned array. The returned array is also terminated with -1.

This function never returns null. In case there are no file descriptors contained in this UnixFDList, an empty array is returned.

Returns:

an array of file descriptors

builder

public static UnixFDList.Builder<? extends UnixFDList.Builder> builder()

A UnixFDList.Builder object constructs a UnixFDList with the specified properties. Use the various set...() methods to set properties, and finish construction with UnixFDList.Builder.build().
