Dex – 1

DexAsyncResult is used to integrate a DexFuture with GAsyncResult.

DexBlock represents a callback closure that can be scheduled to run within a specific GMainContext.

DexCancellable is a simple cancellation primitive which allows for you to create DexFuture that will reject upon cancellation.

DexDelayed is a future which will resolve or reject the value of another DexFuture when dex_delayed_release() is called.

DexFiber is a fiber (a stack-based coroutine) which itself is a DexFuture.

DexFuture is the base class representing a future which may resolve with a value or reject with error at some point in the future.

This class provides a GListModel implementation that will expand to the contents of another GListModel from a DexFuture.

DexFutureSet represents a set of DexFuture.

DexMainScheduler is the scheduler used on the default thread of an application. It is meant to integrate with your main loop.

DexObject is the basic building block of types defined within libdex. Futures, Schedulers, and Channels all inherit from DexObject which provides features like thread-safe weak pointers and memory management operations.

DexPromise is a convenient DexFuture for propagating a result or rejection in application and library code.

DexScheduler is the base class used by schedulers.

DexStaticFuture represents a future that is resolved from the initial state.

DexThreadPoolScheduler is a DexScheduler that will dispatch work items and fibers to sub-schedulers on a specific operating system thread.

DexTimeout is a DexFuture that will reject after the configured period of time.

DexUnixSignal is a DexFuture that will resolve when a specific unix signal has been received.

This function prototype is used for spawning fibers. A fiber is a lightweight, cooperative-multitasking feature where the fiber is given its own stack. The fiber runs until it reaches a point of suspension (using dex_await() or similar) or exits the fiber.

A DexFutureCallback can be executed from a DexBlock as response to another DexFuture resolving or rejecting.

A function which will be run on a dedicated thread.

Asynchronously copies a file and returns a DexFuture which can be observed for the result.

Asynchronously deletes a file and returns a DexFuture which can be observed for the result.

Reads count bytes from an input stream into a pre-allocated buffer. The buffer must stay valid for the lifetime of this future.

Reads count bytes from the stream.

Similar to g_mkdir_with_parents() but runs on a dedicated thread.

unstable since: 1.1
