Method

HexDocumentread_finish

Declaration

gboolean
hex_document_read_finish (
  HexDocument* doc,
  GAsyncResult* result,
  GError** error
)

Description

Obtain the result of a completed file read operation.

This method is mostly a wrapper around hex_buffer_read_finish() but takes some additional steps and emits the appropriate signals applicable to the document object above and beyond the buffer.

This method is typically called from the GAsyncReadyCallback function passed to hex_document_read_async() to obtain the result of the operation.

Parameters

result

Type: GAsyncResult

Result of the task.

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 if the operation was successful; FALSE otherwise.
