find_enclosing_mount


Description:

public abstract Mount find_enclosing_mount (Cancellable? cancellable = null) throws Error

Gets a Mount for the File.

Mount is returned only for user interesting locations, see VolumeMonitor. If the File for this does not have a mount, throws will be set to g_io_error_not_found and null will be returned.

If cancellable is not null, then the operation can be cancelled by triggering the cancellable object from another thread. If the operation was cancelled, the error g_io_error_cancelled will be returned.

public static int main (string[] args) {
try {
File file = File.new_for_commandline_arg (args[0]);
Mount mount = file.find_enclosing_mount ();
print ("%s\n", mount.get_name ());
} catch (Error e) {
print ("Error: %s\n", e.message);
}
return 0;
}
