send_to_mainloop_async


Description:

public void send_to_mainloop_async (owned SourceFunc func)

Used from an I/O job to send a callback to be run asynchronously in the thread that the job was started from.

Note:

Use g_main_context_invoke.

The callback will be run when the main loop is available, but at that time the I/O job might have finished. The return value from the callback is ignored.

Note that if you are passing the user_data from push on to this function you have to ensure that it is not freed before func is called, either by passing null as notify to push or by using refcounting for user_data.

Parameters:

this

a IOSchedulerJob

func

a TaskSourceFunc callback that will be called in the original thread

notify

a DestroyNotify for user_data, or null

user_data

data to pass to func
