start_mountable


Description:

[ Version ( since = "2.22" ) ]
public abstract async bool start_mountable (DriveStartFlags flags, MountOperation? start_operation, Cancellable? cancellable = null) throws Error

Starts a file of type g_file_type_mountable.

Using start_operation, you can request callbacks when, for instance, passwords are needed during authentication.

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.

When the operation is finished, callback will be called. You can then call mount_mountable.end to get the result of the operation.

start_operation

a MountOperation, or null to avoid user interaction

cancellable

optional Cancellable object, null to ignore

a TaskReadyCallback to call when the request is satisfied, or null
