gio.unix_credentials_message

Module for [UnixCredentialsMessage] class

class UnixCredentialsMessage UnixCredentialsMessageGidBuilder UnixCredentialsMessageGidBuilderImpl

Types 3

classUnixCredentialsMessage : gio.socket_control_message.SocketControlMessage

This [gio.socket_control_message.SocketControlMessage] contains a [gio.credentials.Credentials] instance. It may be sent using [gio.socket.Socket.sendMessage] and received using [gio.socket.Socket.receiveMessage] over UNIX sockets (ie: sockets in the [gio.types.SocketFamily.Unix] family).

For an easier way to send and receive credentials over stream-oriented UNIX sockets, see [gio.unix_connection.UnixConnection.sendCredentials] and [gio.unix_connection.UnixConnection.receiveCredentials]. To receive credentials of a foreign process connected to a socket, use [gio.socket.Socket.getCredentials].

Since GLib 2.72, GUnixCredentialMessage is available on all platforms. It requires underlying system support (such as Windows 10 with AF_UNIX) at run time.

Before GLib 2.72, <gio/gunixcredentialsmessage.h> belonged to the UNIX-specific GIO interfaces, thus you had to use the gio-unix-2.0.pc pkg-config file when using it. This is no longer necessary since GLib 2.72.

Methods
GType _getGType()
GType _gType() @property
UnixCredentialsMessage self()Returns `this`, for use in `with` statements.
UnixCredentialsMessageGidBuilder builder()Get builder for [gio.unixcredentialsmessage.UnixCredentialsMessage] Returns: New builder object
gio.credentials.Credentials credentials() @propertyGet `credentials` property. Returns: The credentials stored in the message.
gio.unix_credentials_message.UnixCredentialsMessage newWithCredentials(gio.credentials.Credentials credentials)Creates a new #GUnixCredentialsMessage holding credentials.
bool isSupported()Checks if passing #GCredentials on a #GSocket is supported on this platform. Returns: true if supported, false otherwise
gio.credentials.Credentials getCredentials()Gets the credentials stored in message. Returns: A #GCredentials instance. Do not free, it is owned by message.
Constructors
this(void * ptr, Flag!"Take" take)
this()Creates a new #GUnixCredentialsMessage with credentials matching the current processes. Returns: a new #GUnixCredentialsMessage
classUnixCredentialsMessageGidBuilderImpl(T) : gio.socket_control_message.SocketControlMessageGidBuilderImpl!T
Methods
T credentials(gio.credentials.Credentials propval)Set `credentials` property. Params: propval = The credentials stored in the message. Returns: Builder instance for fluent chaining
