32 * @short_description: Asynchronously failable object initialization interface
33 * @include: gio/gio.h
34 * @see_also: #GInitable
36 * This is the asynchronous version of #GInitable; it behaves the same
37 * in all ways except that initialization is asynchronous. For more details
38 * see the descriptions on #GInitable.
40 * A class may implement both the #GInitable and #GAsyncInitable interfaces.
42 * Users of objects implementing this are not intended to use the interface
43 * method directly; instead it will be used automatically in various ways.
44 * For C applications you generally just call g_async_initable_new_async()
45 * directly, or indirectly via a foo_thing_new_async() wrapper. This will call
46 * g_async_initable_init_async() under the cover, calling back with %NULL and
47 * a set %GError on failure.
49 * A typical implementation might look something like this:
51 * |[
52 * enum {
53 * NOT_INITIALIZED,
54 * INITIALIZING,
55 * INITIALIZED
56 * };
58 * static void
59 * _foo_ready_cb (Foo *self)
60 * {
61 * GList *l;
63 * self->priv->state = INITIALIZED;
65 * for (l = self->priv->init_results; l != NULL; l = l->next)
66 * {
67 * GSimpleAsyncResult *simple = l->data;
69 * if (!self->priv->success)
70 * g_simple_async_result_set_error (simple, ...);
72 * g_simple_async_result_complete (simple);
73 * g_object_unref (simple);
74 * }
76 * g_list_free (self->priv->init_results);
77 * self->priv->init_results = NULL;
78 * }
80 * static void
81 * foo_init_async (GAsyncInitable *initable,
82 * int io_priority,
83 * GCancellable *cancellable,
84 * GAsyncReadyCallback callback,
85 * gpointer user_data)
86 * {
87 * Foo *self = FOO (initable);
88 * GSimpleAsyncResult *simple;
90 * simple = g_simple_async_result_new (G_OBJECT (initable)
91 * callback,
92 * user_data,
93 * foo_init_async);
95 * switch (self->priv->state)
96 * {
97 * case NOT_INITIALIZED:
98 * _foo_get_ready (self);
99 * self->priv->init_results = g_list_append (self->priv->init_results,
100 * simple);
101 * self->priv->state = INITIALIZING;
102 * break;
103 * case INITIALIZING:
104 * self->priv->init_results = g_list_append (self->priv->init_results,
105 * simple);
106 * break;
107 * case INITIALIZED:
108 * if (!self->priv->success)
109 * g_simple_async_result_set_error (simple, ...);
111 * g_simple_async_result_complete_in_idle (simple);

159 g_async_initable_default_init (GAsyncInitableInterface *iface)
161 iface->init_async = g_async_initable_real_init_async;
162 iface->init_finish = g_async_initable_real_init_finish;
166 * g_async_initable_init_async:
167 * @initable: a #GAsyncInitable.
168 * @io_priority: the <link linkend="io-priority">I/O priority</link>
169 * of the operation.
170 * @cancellable: optional #GCancellable object, %NULL to ignore.
171 * @callback: a #GAsyncReadyCallback to call when the request is satisfied
172 * @user_data: the data to pass to callback function
174 * Starts asynchronous initialization of the object implementing the
175 * interface. This must be done before any real use of the object after
176 * initial construction. If the object also implements #GInitable you can
177 * optionally call g_initable_init() instead.
179 * When the initialization is finished, @callback will be called. You can
180 * then call g_async_initable_init_finish() to get the result of the
181 * initialization.
183 * Implementations may also support cancellation. If @cancellable is not
184 * %NULL, then initialization can be cancelled by triggering the cancellable
185 * object from another thread. If the operation was cancelled, the error
186 * %G_IO_ERROR_CANCELLED will be returned. If @cancellable is not %NULL, and
187 * the object doesn't support cancellable initialization, the error
188 * %G_IO_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED will be returned.
190 * As with #GInitable, if the object is not initialized, or initialization
191 * returns with an error, then all operations on the object except
192 * g_object_ref() and g_object_unref() are considered to be invalid, and
193 * have undefined behaviour. They will often fail with g_critical() or
194 * g_warning(), but this must not be relied on.
196 * Implementations of this method must be idempotent: i.e. multiple calls
197 * to this function with the same argument should return the same results.
198 * Only the first call initializes the object; further calls return the result
199 * of the first call. This is so that it's safe to implement the singleton
200 * pattern in the GObject constructor function.
202 * For classes that also support the #GInitable interface, the default
203 * implementation of this method will run the g_initable_init() function
204 * in a thread, so if you want to support asynchronous initialization via
205 * threads, just implement the #GAsyncInitable interface without overriding
206 * any interface methods.
