add_and_activate_connection2

Description:

[ Version ( since = "1.16" ) ]
public async ActiveConnection add_and_activate_connection2 (Connection? @partial, Device? device, string? specific_object, Variant options, Cancellable? cancellable, out Variant? out_result) throws Error

Adds a new connection using the given details (if any) as a template, automatically filling in missing settings with the capabilities of the given device and specific object.

The new connection is then asynchronously activated as with activate_connection_async. Cannot be used for VPN connections at this time.

Note that the callback is invoked when NetworkManager has started activating the new connection, not when it finishes. You can used the returned ActiveConnection object (in particular, state) to track the activation to its completion.

This is identical to add_and_activate_connection_async but takes a further options parameter. Currently, the following options are supported by the daemon: * "persist": A string describing how the connection should be stored. The default is "disk", but it can be modified to "memory" (until the daemon quits) or "volatile" (will be deleted on disconnect). * "bind-activation": Bind the connection lifetime to something. The default is "none", meaning an explicit disconnect is needed. The value "dbus-client" means the connection will automatically be deactivated when the calling D-Bus client disappears from the system bus.

Parameters:

this	a Client
device	the Device
specific_object	the object path of a connection-type-specific object this activation should use. This parameter is currently ignored for wired and mobile broadband connections, and the value of null should be used (i.e., no specific object). For Wi-Fi or WiMAX connections, pass the object path of a AccessPoint or WimaxNsp owned by `device`, which you can get using get_path, and which will be used to complete the details of the newly added connection.
options	a Variant containing a dictionary with options, or null
cancellable	a Cancellable, or null
callback	callback to be called when the activation has started
partial	an Connection to add; the connection may be partially filled (or even null) and will be completed by NetworkManager using the given `device` and `specific_object` before being added
user_data	caller-specific data passed to `callback`
