Function

RestParamnew_with_owner

Declaration [src]

RestParam*
rest_param_new_with_owner (
  const char* name,
  gconstpointer data,
  gsize length,
  const char* content_type,
  const char* filename,
  gpointer owner,
  GDestroyNotify owner_dnotify
)

Description [src]

Create a new RestParam called name with length bytes of data as the value. content_type is the type of the data as a MIME type, for example “text/plain” for simple string parameters.

If the parameter is a file upload it can be passed as filename.

When the RestParam is freed, it will call owner_dnotify, passing owner to it. This allows you to do something like this:

GMappedFile *map = g_mapped_file_new (filename, FALSE, &error);
RestParam *param = rest_param_new_with_owner ("media",
                                              g_mapped_file_get_contents (map),
                                              g_mapped_file_get_length (map),
                                              "image/jpeg",
                                              filename,
                                              map,
                                              (GDestroyNotify)g_mapped_file_unref);
