request_image


Description:

[ Version ( since = "2.6" ) ]
public void request_image (ClipboardImageReceivedFunc callback)

Requests the contents of the clipboard as image.

When the image is later received, it will be converted to a Pixbuf, and callback will be called.

The pixbuf parameter to callback will contain the resulting Pixbuf if the request succeeded, or null if it failed. This could happen for various reasons, in particular if the clipboard was empty or if the contents of the clipboard could not be converted into an image.

Parameters:

this

a Clipboard

callback

a function to call when the image is received, or the retrieval fails. (It will always be called one way or the other.)

user_data

user data to pass to callback.
