Description:
public virtual async FileInfo query_info_async (string attributes, FileQueryInfoFlags flags, int io_priority = DEFAULT, Cancellable? cancellable = null) throws Error
Asynchronously gets the requested information about specified this.
The result is a FileInfo object that contains key-value attributes (such as type or size for the file).

public static int main (string[] args) {
if (args.length != 2) {
print ("%s FILE\n", args[0]);
return 0;
}
MainLoop loop = new MainLoop ();
File file = File.new_for_commandline_arg (args[1]);
file.query_info_async.begin ("standard::icon", 0, Priority.DEFAULT, null, (obj, res) => {
try {
FileInfo info = file.query_info_async.end (res);
Icon icon = info.get_icon ();
print ("%s\n", icon.to_string ());
} catch (Error e) {
print ("Error: %s\n", e.message);
}
loop.quit ();
