Method

SecretPromptperform_sync

Declaration [src] 

GVariant*
secret_prompt_perform_sync (
  SecretPrompt* self,
  const gchar* window_id,
  GCancellable* cancellable,
  const GVariantType* return_type,
  GError** error
)

Description [src]

Runs a prompt and performs the prompting.

Returns a variant result if the prompt was completed and not dismissed. The type of result depends on the action the prompt is completing, and is defined in the Secret Service DBus API specification.

If window_id is non-null then it is used as an XWindow id on Linux. The API expects this id to be converted to a string using the %d printf format. The Secret Service can make its prompt transient for the window with this id. In some Secret Service implementations this is not possible, so the behavior depending on this should degrade gracefully.

This method may block indefinitely and should not be used in user interface threads.

Parameters

window_id

Type: const gchar*

String form of XWindow id for parent window to be transient for.

The argument can be NULL.
The data is owned by the caller of the function.
The value is a NUL terminated UTF-8 string.
cancellable

Type: GCancellable

Optional cancellation object.

The argument can be NULL.
The data is owned by the caller of the function.
return_type

Type: GVariantType

The variant type of the prompt result.

The data is owned by the caller of the function.
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 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: GVariant

NULL if the prompt was dismissed or an error occurred.

The caller of the method takes ownership of the data, and is responsible for freeing it.
