Variant.getVa

This function is intended to be used by libraries based on GVariant that want to provide g_variant_get()-like functionality to their users. The API is more general than g_variant_get() to allow a wider range of possible uses. format_string must still point to a valid format string, but it only need to be nul-terminated if endptr is NULL. If endptr is non-NULL then it is updated to point to the first character past the end of the format string. app is a pointer to a va_list. The arguments, according to format_string, are collected from this va_list and the list is left pointing to the argument following the last. These two generalisations allow mixing of multiple calls to g_variant_new_va() and g_variant_get_va() within a single actual varargs call by the user. format_string determines the C types that are used for unpacking the values and also determines if the values are copied or borrowed, see the section on GVariant Format Strings. Since 2.24
