UnixCredentialsMessage

Object Hierarchy:

Description:

public class UnixCredentialsMessage : SocketControlMessage

This SocketControlMessage contains a Credentials instance.

It may be sent using send_message and received using receive_message over UNIX sockets (ie: sockets in the g_socket_family_unix family).

For an easier way to send and receive credentials over stream-oriented UNIX sockets, see send_credentials and receive_credentials. To receive credentials of a foreign process connected to a socket, use get_credentials.
