Socket communication layer in GDK

Our socket is connectionless, and is blind to the source of the message.

Types

Variables

struct _GdkSocketPrivate{ GdkWindow * window; GdkDisplay * display; gchar * name; GdkSocketStatus status; GdkNativeWindow target; };

Methods

/* Constructor */ GdkSocket * gdk_socket_init (GdkSocket * self); GdkSocket * gdk_socket_new (gchar *name); /* Send message to target socket by its GdkNativeWindow ID */ gboolean gdk_socket_send (GdkSocket * self, GdkNativeWindow target, gpointer data, guint bytes); /* Find a target's GdkNativeWindow ID via its name, only the first one is returned */ GdkNativeWindow gdk_socket_find_target_by_name (GdkSocket * self, gchar * target_name); /* Broadcast a message to all the target socket that has a name target_name */ void gdk_socket_broadcast (GdkSocket * self, gchar * target_name, gpointer data, guint bytes); /* Deconstruction */ void gdk_socket_finalize (GdkSocket *self); void gdk_socket_dispose (GdkSocket *self);
