Properties

$gtype: GType<Gio.AppInfo>
prototype: Gio.AppInfo

Methods

  • Gets the default application for handling URIs with the given URI scheme.

    A URI scheme is the initial part of the URI, up to but not including the :. For example, http, ftp or sip.

    Parameters

    • uri_scheme: string

      a string containing a URI scheme.

    Returns Gio.AppInfo

  • Gets a list of fallback Gio.AppInfos for a given content type, i.e. those applications which claim to support the given content type by MIME type subclassing and not directly.

    Parameters

    • content_type: string

      the content type to find a Gio.AppInfo for

    Returns Gio.AppInfo[]

  • Utility function that launches the default application registered to handle the specified uri. Synchronous I/O is done on the uri to detect the type of the file if required.

    The D-Bus–activated applications don’t have to be started if your application terminates too soon after this function. To prevent this, use Gio.AppInfo.launch_default_for_uri_async instead.

    Parameters

    Returns boolean
