81 * GCancellable::cancelled:
82 * @cancellable: a #GCancellable.
84 * Emitted when the operation has been cancelled.
86 * Can be used by implementations of cancellable operations. If the
87 * operation is cancelled from another thread, the signal will be
88 * emitted in the thread that cancelled the operation, not the
89 * thread that is running the operation.
91 * Note that disconnecting from this signal (or any signal) in a
92 * multi-threaded program is prone to race conditions. For instance
93 * it is possible that a signal handler may be invoked even after
94 * a call to g_signal_handler_disconnect() for that handler has
95 * already returned.
97 * There is also a problem when cancellation happens right before
98 * connecting to the signal. If this happens the signal will
99 * unexpectedly not be emitted, and checking before connecting to
100 * the signal leaves a race condition where this is still happening.
102 * In order to make it safe and easy to connect handlers there
103 * are two helper functions: g_cancellable_connect() and
104 * g_cancellable_disconnect() which protect against problems
105 * like this.
107 * An example of how to us this:
108 * |[<!-- language="C" -->
109 * // Make sure we don't do unnecessary work if already cancelled
110 * if (g_cancellable_set_error_if_cancelled (cancellable, error))
111 * return;
113 * // Set up all the data needed to be able to handle cancellation
114 * // of the operation
115 * my_data = my_data_new (...);
117 * id = 0;
118 * if (cancellable)
119 * id = g_cancellable_connect (cancellable,
120 * G_CALLBACK (cancelled_handler)
121 * data, NULL);
123 * // cancellable operation here...
125 * g_cancellable_disconnect (cancellable, id);
127 * // cancelled_handler is never called after this, it is now safe
128 * // to free the data
129 * my_data_free (my_data);
130 * ]|
132 * Note that the cancelled signal is emitted in the thread that
133 * the user cancelled from, which may be the main thread. So, the
134 * cancellable signal should not do something that can block.
