Source.setCallback

void setCallback(glib.types.SourceFunc func)

Sets the callback function for a source. The callback for a source is called from the source's dispatch function.

The exact type of func depends on the type of source; ie. you should not count on func being called with data as its first parameter. Cast func with G_SOURCE_FUNC() to avoid warnings about incompatible function types.

See [memory management of sources][mainloop-memory-management] for details on how to handle memory management of data.

Typically, you won't use this function. Instead use functions specific to the type of source you are using, such as [glib.global.idleAdd] or [glib.global.timeoutAdd].

It is safe to call this function multiple times on a source which has already been attached to a context. The changes will take effect for the next time the source is dispatched after this call returns.

Note that [glib.source.Source.destroy] for a currently attached source has the effect of also unsetting the callback.

Parameters
