steal_fds


Description:

[ CCode ( array_length_pos = 0.1 ) ]
[ Version ( since = "2.24" ) ]
public int[] steal_fds ()

Returns the array of file descriptors that is contained in this object.

After this call, the descriptors are no longer contained in this. Further calls will return an empty list ( unless more descriptors have been added).

The return result of this function must be freed with g_free. The caller is also responsible for closing all of the file descriptors. The file descriptors in the array are set to close-on-exec.

If return.length is non-null then it is set to the number of file descriptors in the returned array. The returned array is also terminated with -1.

This function never returns null. In case there are no file descriptors contained in this, an empty array is returned.

Parameters:

this

a UnixFDList

length

pointer to the length of the returned array, or null

Returns:

an array of file descriptors
