ESourceExtension — Base class for ESource extensions

Synopsis

#include <libedataserver/libedataserver.h>

struct              ESourceExtension;
struct              ESourceExtensionClass;
ESource *           e_source_extension_ref_source       (ESourceExtension *extension);
ESource *           e_source_extension_get_source       (ESourceExtension *extension);

Description

ESourceExtension is an abstract base class for ESource extension objects. An ESourceExtension object basically just maps the keys in a key file group to a set of GObject properties. The name of the key file group doubles as the name of the ESourceExtension object.

ESourceExtension objects are accessed through e_source_get_extension().

Details

struct ESourceExtension

struct ESourceExtension {
	GObject parent;
	ESourceExtensionPrivate *priv;
};

Contains only private data that should be read and manipulated using the functions below.

Since 3.6


struct ESourceExtensionClass

struct ESourceExtensionClass {
	GObjectClass parent_class;

	const gchar *name;
};

e_source_extension_ref_source ()

ESource *           e_source_extension_ref_source       (ESourceExtension *extension);

Returns the ESource instance to which the extension belongs.

The returned ESource is referenced for thread-safety. Unreference the ESource with g_object_unref() when finished with it.

extension :

an ESourceExtension

Returns :

the ESource instance. [transfer full]

Since 3.8


e_source_extension_get_source ()

ESource *           e_source_extension_get_source       (ESourceExtension *extension);

Warning

e_source_extension_get_source has been deprecated since version 3.8 and should not be used in newly-written code. Use e_source_extension_ref_source() instead.

Returns the ESource instance to which extension belongs.

Note this function is not thread-safe. The returned ESource could be finalized by another thread while the caller is still using it.

extension :

an ESourceExtension

Returns :

the ESource instance. [transfer none]
