17 * @title: GUnixFDList
18 * @short_description: An object containing a set of UNIX file descriptors
19 * @include: gio/gunixfdlist.h
20 * @see_also: #GUnixFDMessage
22 * A #GUnixFDList contains a list of file descriptors. It owns the file
23 * descriptors that it contains, closing them when finalized.
25 * It may be wrapped in a #GUnixFDMessage and sent over a #GSocket in
26 * the %G_SOCKET_ADDRESS_UNIX family by using g_socket_send_message()
27 * and received using g_socket_receive_message().
29 * Note that <filename>&lt;gio/gunixfdlist.h&gt;</filename> belongs to
30 * the UNIX-specific GIO interfaces, thus you have to use the
31 * <filename>gio-unix-2.0.pc</filename> pkg-config file when using it.
