Method

RestProxyCallcontinuous

Declaration [src]

gboolean
rest_proxy_call_continuous (
  RestProxyCall* call,
  RestProxyCallContinuousCallback callback,
  GObject* weak_object,
  gpointer userdata,
  GError** error
)

Description [src]

Asynchronously invoke call but expect a continuous stream of content. This means that the body data will not be accumulated and thus you cannot use rest_proxy_call_get_payload()

When there is data callback will be called and when the connection is closed or the stream ends callback will also be called.

If weak_object is disposed during the call then this call will be cancelled. If the call is cancelled then the callback will be invoked with an error state.

You may unref the call after calling this function since there is an internal reference, or you may unref in the callback.

This method is not directly available to language bindings.

Parameters

callback

Type: RestProxyCallContinuousCallback

A RestProxyCallContinuousCallback to invoke when data is available.

weak_object

Type: GObject

The GObject to weakly reference and tie the lifecycle to.

The data is owned by the caller of the method.
userdata

Type: gpointer

Data to pass to callback.

The argument can be NULL.
The data is owned by the caller of the method.
error

Type: GError **

The return location for a recoverable error.

The argument can be NULL.
If the return location is not NULL, then you must initialize it to a NULL GError*.
The argument will be left initialized to NULL by the method if there are no errors.
In case of error, the argument will be set to a newly allocated GError; the caller will take ownership of the data, and be responsible for freeing it.

Return value

Type: gboolean

TRUE on success.
