Emitted when the drive's state has changed.
This signal is emitted when the GDrive have been disconnected. If the recipient is holding references to the object they should release them so the object can be finalized.
Emitted when the physical eject button (if any) of a drive has been pressed.
Emitted when the physical stop button (if any) of a drive has been pressed. Since 2.22
Checks if a drive can be ejected.
Checks if a drive can be polled for media changes.
Checks if a drive can be started. Since 2.22
Checks if a drive can be started degraded. Since 2.22
Checks if a drive can be stopped. Since 2.22
Warning g_drive_eject has been deprecated since version 2.22 and should not be used in newly-written code. Use g_drive_eject_with_operation() instead. Asynchronously ejects a drive. When the operation is finished, callback will be called. You can then call g_drive_eject_finish() to obtain the result of the operation.
Warning g_drive_eject_finish has been deprecated since version 2.22 and should not be used in newly-written code. Use g_drive_eject_with_operation_finish() instead. Finishes ejecting a drive.
Ejects a drive. This is an asynchronous operation, and is finished by calling g_drive_eject_with_operation_finish() with the drive and GAsyncResult data returned in the callback. Since 2.22
Finishes ejecting a drive. If any errors occurred during the operation, error will be set to contain the errors and FALSE will be returned. Since 2.22
Gets the kinds of identifiers that drive has. Use g_drive_get_identifer() to obtain the identifiers themselves.
Gets the icon for drive.
Gets the identifier of the given kind for drive.
Gets the name of drive.
Gets a hint about how a drive can be started/stopped. Since 2.22
Get a list of mountable volumes for drive. The returned list should be freed with g_list_free(), after its elements have been unreffed with g_object_unref().
Checks if the drive has media. Note that the OS may not be polling the drive for media changes; see g_drive_is_media_check_automatic() for more details.
Check if drive has any mountable volumes.
Checks if drive is capabable of automatically detecting media changes.
Checks if the drive supports removable media.
Asynchronously polls drive to see if media has been inserted or removed. When the operation is finished, callback will be called. You can then call g_drive_poll_for_media_finish() to obtain the result of the operation.
Finishes an operation started with g_drive_poll_for_media() on a drive.
Asynchronously starts a drive. When the operation is finished, callback will be called. You can then call g_drive_start_finish() to obtain the result of the operation. Since 2.22
Finishes starting a drive. Since 2.22
Asynchronously stops a drive. When the operation is finished, callback will be called. You can then call g_drive_stop_finish() to obtain the result of the operation. Since 2.22
Finishes stopping a drive. Since 2.22
the main Gtk struct
Description GDrive - this represent a piece of hardware connected to the machine. It's generally only created for removable hardware or hardware with removable media. GDrive is a container class for GVolume objects that stem from the same piece of media. As such, GDrive abstracts a drive with (or without) removable media and provides operations for querying whether media is available, determing whether media change is automatically detected and ejecting the media. If the GDrive reports that media isn't automatically detected, one can poll for media; typically one should not do this periodically as a poll for media operation is potententially expensive and may spin up the drive creating noise. GDrive supports starting and stopping drives with authentication support for the former. This can be used to support a diverse set of use cases including connecting/disconnecting iSCSI devices, powering down external disk enclosures and starting/stopping multi-disk devices such as RAID devices. Note that the actual semantics and side-effects of starting/stopping a GDrive may vary according to implementation. To choose the correct verbs in e.g. a file manager, use g_drive_get_start_stop_type(). For porting from GnomeVFS note that there is no equivalent of GDrive in that API.
