write
Description:
public abstract ssize_t write (uint8[] buffer, Cancellable? cancellable = null) throws IOError
Tries to write buffer.length bytes from buffer into the stream.
Will block during the operation.
If count is 0, returns 0 and does nothing. A value of buffer.length larger than g_maxssize will
cause a g_io_error_invalid_argument error.
On success, the number of bytes written to the stream is returned. It is not an error if this is not the same as the requested size, as it can
happen e.g. on a partial I/O error, or if there is not enough storage in the stream. All writes block until at least one byte is written or an
error occurs; 0 is never returned (unless buffer.length is 0).
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.
If an operation was partially finished when the operation was cancelled the partial result will be returned, without an error.
On error -1 is returned and throws is set accordingly.
Parameters:
| this |
a OutputStream. |
| buffer |
the buffer containing the data to write. |
| cancellable |
optional cancellable object |
| count |
the number of bytes to write |
Returns:
|
Number of bytes written, or -1 on error |
