Optionalproperties: Partial<Gio.SimpleAsyncResult.ConstructorProps>Internal$signalsCompile-time signal type information.
This instance property is generated only for TypeScript type checking. It is not defined at runtime and should not be accessed in JS code.
Static$gtypeCreates a binding between source_property on source and target_property
on target.
Whenever the source_property is changed the target_property is
updated using the same value. For instance:
g_object_bind_property (action, "active", widget, "sensitive", 0);
Will result in the "sensitive" property of the widget GObject.Object instance to be updated with the same value of the "active" property of the action GObject.Object instance.
If flags contains GObject.BindingFlags.BIDIRECTIONAL then the binding will be mutual:
if target_property on target changes then the source_property on source
will be updated as well.
The binding will automatically be removed when either the source or the
target instances are finalized. To remove the binding without affecting the
source and the target you can just call g_object_unref() on the returned
GObject.Binding instance.
Removing the binding by calling g_object_unref() on it must only be done if
the binding, source and target are only used from a single thread and it
is clear that both source and target outlive the binding. Especially it
is not safe to rely on this if the binding, source or target can be
finalized from different threads. Keep another reference to the binding and
use g_binding_unbind() instead to be on the safe side.
A GObject.Object can have multiple bindings.

Creates a binding between source_property on source and target_property
on target, allowing you to set the transformation functions to be used by
the binding.
If flags contains GObject.BindingFlags.BIDIRECTIONAL then the binding will be mutual:
if target_property on target changes then the source_property on source
will be updated as well. The transform_from function is only used in case
of bidirectional bindings, otherwise it will be ignored
The binding will automatically be removed when either the source or the
target instances are finalized. This will release the reference that is
being held on the GObject.Binding instance; if you want to hold on to the
GObject.Binding instance, you will need to hold a reference to it.
To remove the binding, call g_binding_unbind().
A GObject.Object can have multiple bindings.
The same user_data parameter will be used for both transform_to
and transform_from transformation functions; the notify function will
be called once, when the binding is removed. If you need different data
for each transformation function, please use
g_object_bind_property_with_closures() instead.

Blocks a handler of an instance so it will not be called during any signal emissions
Handler ID of the handler to be blocked
Completes an asynchronous I/O job immediately. Must be called in
the thread where the asynchronous result was to be delivered, as it
invokes the callback directly. If you are in a different thread use
g_simple_async_result_complete_in_idle().
Calling this function takes a reference to simple for as long as
is needed to complete the call.
Completes an asynchronous function in an idle handler in the
thread-default main context (see GLib.MainContext.push_thread_default)
of the thread that simple was initially created in
(and re-pushes that context around the invocation of the callback).

is needed to complete the call.
SignalconnectSignalconnect_Disconnects a handler from an instance so it will not be called during any future or currently ongoing emissions of the signal it has been connected to.

SignalemitThis function is intended for GObject.Object implementations to re-enforce
a [floating][floating-ref] object reference. Doing this is seldom
required: all GInitiallyUnowneds are created with a floating reference
which usually just needs to be sunken by calling g_object_ref_sink().
Increases the freeze count on object. If the freeze count is
non-zero, the emission of "notify" signals on object is
stopped. The signals are queued until the freeze count is decreased
to zero. Duplicate notifications are squashed so that at most one
GObject.Object::notify signal is emitted for each property modified while the
object is frozen.
This is necessary for accessors that modify multiple properties to prevent premature notification while the object is still being modified.

Gets a property of an object.
The value can be:
In general, a copy is made of the property contents and the caller is responsible for freeing the memory by calling GObject.Value.unset.
Note that GObject.Object.get_property is really intended for language bindings, GObject.Object.get is much more convenient for C programming.

Optionalsource_tag: anyan application-defined tag
TRUE if res has the indicated source_tag, FALSE if not.
If res is a Gio.SimpleAsyncResult, this is equivalent to
Gio.SimpleAsyncResult.propagate_error. Otherwise it returns
FALSE.
This can be used for legacy error handling in async *_finish()
wrapper functions that traditionally handled Gio.SimpleAsyncResult
error returns themselves rather than calling into the virtual method.
This should not be used in new code; Gio.AsyncResult errors that are
set by virtual methods should also be extracted by virtual methods,
to enable subclasses to chain up correctly.
TRUE if error is has been filled in with an error from res, FALSE if not.
Emits a "notify" signal for the property property_name on object.
When possible, eg. when signaling a property change from within the class
that registered the property, you should use g_object_notify_by_pspec()
instead.
Note that emission of the notify signal may be blocked with
g_object_freeze_notify(). In this case, the signal emissions are queued
and will be emitted (in reverse order) when g_object_thaw_notify() is
called.
the name of a property installed on the class of object.
Emits a "notify" signal for the property specified by pspec on object.
This function omits the property name lookup, hence it is faster than
g_object_notify().
One way to avoid using g_object_notify() from within the
class that registered the properties, and using g_object_notify_by_pspec()
instead, is to store the GParamSpec used with
g_object_class_install_property() inside a static array, e.g.:
typedef enum
{
PROP_FOO = 1,
PROP_LAST
} MyObjectProperty;
static GParamSpec *properties[PROP_LAST];
static void
my_object_class_init (MyObjectClass *klass)
{
properties[PROP_FOO] = g_param_spec_int ("foo", NULL, NULL,
0, 100,
50,
G_PARAM_READWRITE | G_PARAM_STATIC_STRINGS);
g_object_class_install_property (gobject_class,
PROP_FOO,
properties[PROP_FOO]);
}
and then notify a change on the "foo" property with:
g_object_notify_by_pspec (self, properties[PROP_FOO]);
the GObject.ParamSpec of a property installed on the class of object.
Propagates an error from within the simple asynchronous result to a given destination.
If the Gio.Cancellable given to a prior call to
g_simple_async_result_set_check_cancellable() is cancelled then this
function will return true with dest set appropriately.
true if the error was propagated to dest. false otherwise.
Increases the reference count of object.
Since GLib 2.56, if GLIB_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED is 2.56 or greater, the type
of object will be propagated to the return type (using the GCC typeof()
extension), so any casting the caller needs to do on the return type must be
explicit.
the same object
Increase the reference count of object, and possibly remove the
[floating][floating-ref] reference, if object has a floating reference.
In other words, if the object is floating, then this call "assumes ownership" of the floating reference, converting it to a normal reference by clearing the floating flag while leaving the reference count unchanged. If the object is not floating, then this call adds a new normal reference increasing the reference count by one.
Since GLib 2.56, the type of object will be propagated to the return type
under the same conditions as for g_object_ref().
object
Releases all references to other objects. This can be used to break reference cycles.
This function should only be called from object system implementations.
Sets multiple properties of an object at once. The properties argument should be a dictionary mapping property names to values.

Sets a Gio.Cancellable to check before dispatching results.
This function has one very specific purpose: the provided cancellable
is checked at the time of g_simple_async_result_propagate_error() If
it is cancelled, these functions will return an "Operation was
cancelled" error (Gio.IOErrorEnum.CANCELLED).
Implementors of cancellable asynchronous functions should use this in order to provide a guarantee to their callers that cancelling an async operation will reliably result in an error being returned for that operation (even if a positive result for the operation has already been sent as an idle to the main context to be dispatched).
The checking described above is done regardless of any call to the
unrelated g_simple_async_result_set_handle_cancellation() function.
Optionalcheck_cancellable: Gio.Cancellablea Gio.Cancellable to check, or null to unset
Each object carries around a table of associations from strings to pointers. This function lets you set an association.
If the object already had an association with that name, the old association will be destroyed.
Internally, the key is converted to a GLib.Quark using g_quark_from_string().
This means a copy of key is kept permanently (even after object has been
finalized) — so it is recommended to only use a small, bounded set of values
for key in your program, to avoid the GLib.Quark storage growing unbounded.

Optionaldata: anydata to associate with that key
Sets whether to handle cancellation within the asynchronous operation.
This function has nothing to do with

the data if found, or null if no such data exists.
This function gets back user data pointers stored via
g_object_set_qdata() and removes the data from object
without invoking its destroy() function (if any was
set).
Usually, calling this function is only required to update
user data pointers with a destroy notifier, for example:
void
object_add_to_user_list (GObject *object,
const gchar *new_string)
{
// the quark, naming the object data
GQuark quark_string_list = g_quark_from_static_string ("my-string-list");
// retrieve the old string list
GList *list = g_object_steal_qdata (object, quark_string_list);
// prepend new string
list = g_list_prepend (list, g_strdup (new_string));
// this changed 'list', so we need to set it again
g_object_set_qdata_full (object, quark_string_list, list, free_string_list);
}
static void
free_string_list (gpointer data)
{
GList *node, *list = data;
for (node = list; node; node = node->next)
g_free (node->data);
g_list_free (list);
}
Using g_object_get_qdata() in the above example, instead of
g_object_steal_qdata() would have left the destroy function set,
and thus the partial string list would have been freed upon
g_object_set_qdata_full().

Reverts the effect of a previous call to
g_object_freeze_notify(). The freeze count is decreased on object
and when it reaches zero, queued "notify" signals are emitted.
Duplicate notifications for each property are squashed so that at most one GObject.Object::notify signal is emitted for each property, in the reverse order in which they have been queued.
It is an error to call this function when the freeze count is zero.
Unblocks a handler so it will be called again during any signal emissions

Decreases the reference count of object. When its reference count
drops to 0, the object is finalized (i.e. its memory is freed).
If the pointer to the GObject.Object may be reused in future (for example, if it is
an instance variable of another object), it is recommended to clear the
pointer to null rather than retain a dangling pointer to a potentially
invalid GObject.Object instance. Use g_clear_object() for this.
Virtualvfunc_the constructed function is called by g_object_new() as the
final step of the object creation process. At the point of the call, all
construction properties have been set on the object. The purpose of this
call is to allow for object initialisation steps that can only be performed
after construction properties have been set. constructed implementors
should chain up to the constructed call of their parent class to allow it
to complete its initialisation.
Virtualvfunc_Virtualvfunc_the dispose function is supposed to drop all references to other
objects, but keep the instance otherwise intact, so that client method
invocations still work. It may be run multiple times (due to reference
loops). Before returning, dispose should chain up to the dispose method
of the parent class.
Virtualvfunc_instance finalization function, should finish the finalization of
the instance begun in dispose and chain up to the finalize method of the
parent class.
Virtualvfunc_Virtualvfunc_Virtualvfunc_Gets the user data from a Gio.AsyncResult.
Virtualvfunc_Checks if res has the given source_tag (generally a function
pointer indicating the function res was created by).
Optionalsource_tag: anyan application-defined tag
Virtualvfunc_Emits a "notify" signal for the property property_name on object.
When possible, eg. when signaling a property change from within the class
that registered the property, you should use g_object_notify_by_pspec()
instead.
Note that emission of the notify signal may be blocked with
g_object_freeze_notify(). In this case, the signal emissions are queued
and will be emitted (in reverse order) when g_object_thaw_notify() is
called.
Virtualvfunc_the generic setter for all properties of this type. Should be
overridden for every type with properties. If implementations of
set_property don't emit property change notification explicitly, this will
be done implicitly by the type system. However, if the notify signal is
emitted explicitly, the type system will not emit it a second time.
This function essentially limits the life time of the closure to
the life time of the object. That is, when the object is finalized,
the closure is invalidated by calling g_closure_invalidate() on
it, in order to prevent invocations of the closure with a finalized
(nonexisting) object. Also, g_object_ref() and g_object_unref() are
added as marshal guards to the closure, to ensure that an extra
reference count is held on object during invocation of the
closure. Usually, this function will be called on closures that
use this object as closure data.

Staticis_Ensures that the data passed to the _finish function of an async operation is consistent. Three checks are performed.
First, result is checked to ensure that it is really a
Gio.SimpleAsyncResult. Second, source is checked to ensure that it
matches the source object of result. Third, source_tag is
checked to ensure that it is equal to the source_tag argument given
to g_simple_async_result_new() (which, by convention, is a pointer
to the _async function corresponding to the _finish function from
which this function is called). (Alternatively, if either
source_tag or result's source tag is null, then the source tag
check is skipped.)

Staticinterface_Find the GObject.ParamSpec with the given name for an

name of a property to look up.
Staticinterface_Add a property to an interface; this is only useful for interfaces
that are added to GObject-derived types. Adding a property to an
interface forces all objects classes with that interface to have a
compatible property. The compatible property could be a newly
created GObject.ParamSpec, but normally
g_object_class_override_property() will be used so that the object
class only needs to provide an implementation and inherits the
property description, default value, bounds, and so forth from the
interface property.
This function is meant to be called from the interface's default
vtable initialization function (the class_init member of
GObject.TypeInfo.) It must not be called after after class_init has
been called for any object types implementing this interface.

As of GLib 2.46, Gio.SimpleAsyncResult is deprecated in favor of Gio.Task, which provides a simpler API.
Gio.SimpleAsyncResult implements Gio.AsyncResult.
Gio.SimpleAsyncResult handles Gio.AsyncReadyCallbacks, error reporting, operation cancellation and the final state of an operation, completely transparent to the application. Results can be returned as a pointer e.g. for functions that return data that is collected asynchronously, a boolean value for checking the success or failure of an operation, or a
gssizefor operations which return the number of bytes modified by the operation; all of the simple return cases are covered.Most of the time, an application will not need to know of the details of this API; it is handled transparently, and any necessary operations are handled by Gio.AsyncResult’s interface. However, if implementing a new GIO module, for writing language bindings, or for complex applications that need better control of how asynchronous operations are completed, it is important to understand this functionality.
Gio.SimpleAsyncResults are tagged with the calling function to ensure that asynchronous functions and their finishing functions are used together correctly.
To create a new Gio.SimpleAsyncResult, call Gio.SimpleAsyncResult.new. If the result needs to be created for a GLib.Error, use Gio.SimpleAsyncResult.new_from_error or Gio.SimpleAsyncResult.new_take_error. If a GLib.Error is not available (e.g. the asynchronous operation doesn’t take a GLib.Error argument), but the result still needs to be created for an error condition, use Gio.SimpleAsyncResult.new_error (or Gio.SimpleAsyncResult.set_error_va if your application or binding requires passing a variable argument list directly), and the error can then be propagated through the use of Gio.SimpleAsyncResult.propagate_error.
An asynchronous operation can be made to ignore a cancellation event by calling Gio.SimpleAsyncResult.set_handle_cancellation with a Gio.SimpleAsyncResult for the operation and
FALSE. This is useful for operations that are dangerous to cancel, such as close (which would cause a leak if cancelled before being run).Gio.SimpleAsyncResult can integrate into GLib’s event loop, GLib.MainLoop, or it can use GLib.Threads. Gio.SimpleAsyncResult.complete will finish an I/O task directly from the point where it is called. Gio.SimpleAsyncResult.complete_in_idle will finish it from an idle handler in the thread-default main context (see GLib.MainContext.push_thread_default) where the Gio.SimpleAsyncResult was created. Gio.SimpleAsyncResult.run_in_thread will run the job in a separate thread and then use Gio.SimpleAsyncResult.complete_in_idle to deliver the result.
To set the results of an asynchronous function, Gio.SimpleAsyncResult.set_op_res_gpointer, Gio.SimpleAsyncResult.set_op_res_gboolean, and Gio.SimpleAsyncResult.set_op_res_gssize are provided, setting the operation's result to a
gpointer,gboolean, orgssize, respectively.Likewise, to get the result of an asynchronous function, Gio.SimpleAsyncResult.get_op_res_gpointer, Gio.SimpleAsyncResult.get_op_res_gboolean, and Gio.SimpleAsyncResult.get_op_res_gssize are provided, getting the operation’s result as a
gpointer,gboolean, andgssize, respectively.For the details of the requirements implementations must respect, see Gio.AsyncResult. A typical implementation of an asynchronous operation using Gio.SimpleAsyncResult looks something like this:
