UnixCredentialsMessage

This #GSocketControlMessage contains a #GCredentials instance. It may be sent using g_socket_send_message() and received using g_socket_receive_message() over UNIX sockets (ie: sockets in the %G_SOCKET_FAMILY_UNIX family).

For an easier way to send and receive credentials over stream-oriented UNIX sockets, see g_unix_connection_send_credentials() and g_unix_connection_receive_credentials(). To receive credentials of a foreign process connected to a socket, use g_socket_get_credentials().

Constructors

this this(GUnixCredentialsMessage* gUnixCredentialsMessage, bool ownedRef): Sets our main struct and passes it to the parent class.
this this(): Creates a new #GUnixCredentialsMessage with credentials matching the current processes.
this this(Credentials credentials): Creates a new #GUnixCredentialsMessage holding @credentials.

Members

Functions

getCredentials Credentials getCredentials(): Gets the credentials stored in @message.
getStruct void* getStruct(): the main Gtk struct as a void*
getUnixCredentialsMessageStruct GUnixCredentialsMessage* getUnixCredentialsMessageStruct(bool transferOwnership): Get the main Gtk struct

Static functions

getType GType getType()
isSupported bool isSupported(): Checks if passing #GCredentials on a #GSocket is supported on this platform.

Variables

gUnixCredentialsMessage GUnixCredentialsMessage* gUnixCredentialsMessage;: the main Gtk struct

From SocketControlMessage

gSocketControlMessage GSocketControlMessage* gSocketControlMessage;: the main Gtk struct
getSocketControlMessageStruct GSocketControlMessage* getSocketControlMessageStruct(bool transferOwnership): Get the main Gtk struct
getStruct void* getStruct(): the main Gtk struct as a void*
getType GType getType()
deserialize SocketControlMessage deserialize(int level, int type, ubyte[] data): Tries to deserialize a socket control message of a given @level and @type. This will ask all known (to GType) subclasses of #GSocketControlMessage if they can understand this kind of message and if so deserialize it into a #GSocketControlMessage.
getLevel int getLevel(): Returns the "level" (i.e. the originating protocol) of the control message. This is often SOL_SOCKET.
getMsgType int getMsgType(): Returns the protocol specific type of the control message. For instance, for UNIX fd passing this would be SCM_RIGHTS.
getSize size_t getSize(): Returns the space required for the control message, not including headers or alignment.
serialize void serialize(void* data): Converts the data in the message to bytes placed in the message.
