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): Sets our main struct and passes it to the parent class
this this(): Creates a new GUnixCredentialsMessage with credentials matching the current processes. Since 2.26
this this(Credentials credentials): Creates a new GUnixCredentialsMessage holding credentials. Since 2.26

Functions

getCredentials Credentials getCredentials(): Gets the credentials stored in message. Since 2.26
getStruct void* getStruct(): the main Gtk struct as a void*
getUnixCredentialsMessageStruct GUnixCredentialsMessage* getUnixCredentialsMessageStruct(): Undocumented in source. Be warned that the author may not have intended to support it.
setStruct void setStruct(GObject* obj): Undocumented in source. Be warned that the author may not have intended to support it.

Static functions

isSupported int isSupported(): Checks if passing GCredentials on a GSocket is supported on this platform. Since 2.26

Variables

deserialize SocketControlMessage deserialize(int level, int type, gsize size, void* 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. If there is no implementation for this kind of control message, NULL will be returned. Since 2.22
getLevel int getLevel(): Returns the "level" (i.e. the originating protocol) of the control message. This is often SOL_SOCKET. Since 2.22
getMsgType int getMsgType(): Returns the protocol specific type of the control message. For instance, for UNIX fd passing this would be SCM_RIGHTS. Since 2.22
getSize gsize getSize(): Returns the space required for the control message, not including headers or alignment. Since 2.22
serialize void serialize(void* data): Converts the data in the message to bytes placed in the message. data is guaranteed to have enough space to fit the size returned by g_socket_control_message_get_size() on this object. Since 2.22
