85 * GCancellable::cancelled:
86 * @cancellable: a #GCancellable.
88 * Emitted when the operation has been cancelled.
90 * Can be used by implementations of cancellable operations. If the
91 * operation is cancelled from another thread, the signal will be
92 * emitted in the thread that cancelled the operation, not the
93 * thread that is running the operation.
95 * Note that disconnecting from this signal (or any signal) in a
96 * multi-threaded program is prone to race conditions. For instance
97 * it is possible that a signal handler may be invoked even
98 * <emphasis>after</emphasis> a call to
99 * g_signal_handler_disconnect() for that handler has already
100 * returned.
102 * There is also a problem when cancellation happen
103 * right before connecting to the signal. If this happens the
104 * signal will unexpectedly not be emitted, and checking before
105 * connecting to the signal leaves a race condition where this is
106 * still happening.
108 * In order to make it safe and easy to connect handlers there
109 * are two helper functions: g_cancellable_connect() and
110 * g_cancellable_disconnect() which protect against problems
111 * like this.
113 * An example of how to us this:
114 * |[
115 * /<!-- -->* Make sure we don't do any unnecessary work if already cancelled *<!-- -->/
116 * if (g_cancellable_set_error_if_cancelled (cancellable))
117 * return;
119 * /<!-- -->* Set up all the data needed to be able to
120 * * handle cancellation of the operation *<!-- -->/
121 * my_data = my_data_new (...);
123 * id = 0;
124 * if (cancellable)
125 * id = g_cancellable_connect (cancellable,
126 * G_CALLBACK (cancelled_handler)
127 * data, NULL);
129 * /<!-- -->* cancellable operation here... *<!-- -->/
131 * g_cancellable_disconnect (cancellable, id);
133 * /<!-- -->* cancelled_handler is never called after this, it
134 * * is now safe to free the data *<!-- -->/
135 * my_data_free (my_data);
136 * ]|
138 * Note that the cancelled signal is emitted in the thread that
139 * the user cancelled from, which may be the main thread. So, the
140 * cancellable signal should not do something that can block.
