class Gio::IOModule

Overview

Provides an interface and default functions for loading and unloading modules. This is used internally to make GIO extensible, but can also be used by others to implement module loading.

Class Method Detail

def self.g_type : UInt64 #

Returns the type id (GType) registered in GLib type system.


[View source]
def self.query : Enumerable(String) #

Optional API for GIO modules to implement.

Should return a list of all the extension points that may be implemented in this module.

This method will not be called in normal use, however it may be called when probing existing modules and recording which extension points that this model is used for. This means we won't have to load and initialize this module unless its needed.

If this function is not implemented by the module the module will always be loaded, initialized and then unloaded on application startup so that it can register its extension points during init.

Note that a module need not actually implement all the extension points that g_io_module_query() returns, since the exact list of extension may depend on runtime issues. However all extension points actually implemented must be returned by g_io_module_query() (if defined).

When installing a module that implements g_io_module_query() you must run gio-querymodules in order to build the cache files required for lazy loading.

Since 2.56, this function should be named g_io_<modulename>_query, where modulename is the plugin’s filename with the lib or libgio prefix and everything after the first dot removed, and with - replaced with _ throughout. For example, libgiognutls-helper.so becomes gnutls_helper. Using the new symbol names avoids name clashes when building modules statically. The old symbol names continue to be supported, but cannot be used for static builds.
