All Implemented Interfaces:

Proxy

@Generated("io.github.jwharm.JavaGI")
public class ContentProvider
extends GObject

Provides content for the clipboard or for drag-and-drop operations in a number of formats.

To create a GdkContentProvider, use forValue(org.gnome.gobject.Value) or forBytes(java.lang.String, byte[]).

GDK knows how to handle common text and image formats out-of-the-box. See ContentSerializer and ContentDeserializer if you want to add support for application-specific data formats.

Constructor Details

ContentProvider

public ContentProvider(MemorySegment address)

Create a ContentProvider proxy instance for the provided memory address.

Parameters:

address - the memory address of the native object

ContentProvider

public ContentProvider()

Creates a new ContentProvider.

Method Details

getType

public static @Nullable Type getType()

Get the GType of the ContentProvider class

Returns:

the GType

getMemoryLayout

public static MemoryLayout getMemoryLayout()

The memory layout of the native struct.

Returns:

the memory layout

asParent

protected ContentProvider asParent()

Returns this instance as if it were its parent type. This is mostly synonymous to the Java super keyword, but will set the native typeclass function pointers to the parent type. When overriding a native virtual method in Java, "chaining up" with super.methodName() doesn't work, because it invokes the overridden function pointer again. To chain up, call asParent().methodName(). This will call the native function pointer of this virtual method in the typeclass of the parent type.

Overrides:

asParent in class GObject

forBytes

public static ContentProvider forBytes(String mimeType,
 byte[] bytes)

Create a content provider that provides the given bytes as data for the given mimeType.

Parameters:

mimeType - the mime type

bytes - a GBytes with the data for mimeType

Returns:

a new GdkContentProvider

forValue

public static ContentProvider forValue(Value value)

Create a content provider that provides the given value.

Parameters:

value - a GValue

Returns:

a new GdkContentProvider

typed

public static ContentProvider typed(Type type,
 Object... varargs)

Create a content provider that provides the value of the given type.

The value is provided using G_VALUE_COLLECT(), so the same rules apply as when calling g_object_new() or g_object_set().

Parameters:

type - Type of value to follow

varargs - value

Returns:

a new GdkContentProvider

union

public static ContentProvider union(@Nullable ContentProvider @Nullable [] providers)

Creates a content provider that represents all the given providers.

Whenever data needs to be written, the union provider will try the given providers in the given order and the first one supporting a format will be chosen to provide it.

This allows an easy way to support providing data in different formats. For example, an image may be provided by its file and by the image contents with a call such as

gdk_content_provider_new_union ((GdkContentProvider *[2]) {
                                   gdk_content_provider_new_typed (G_TYPE_FILE, file),
                                   gdk_content_provider_new_typed (GDK_TYPE_TEXTURE, texture)
                                 }, 2);
 

Parameters:

providers - The GdkContentProviders to present the union of

Returns:

a new GdkContentProvider

contentChanged

public void contentChanged()

Emits the ::content-changed signal.

getValue

public boolean getValue(Value value)
                 throws GErrorException

Gets the contents of this ContentProvider stored in value.

The value will have been initialized to the GType the value should be provided in. This given GType does not need to be listed in the formats returned by refFormats(). However, if the given GType is not supported, this operation can fail and G_IO_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED will be reported.

Parameters:

value - the GValue to fill

Returns:

true if the value was set successfully. Otherwise error will be set to describe the failure.

Throws:

GErrorException - see GError

refFormats

public ContentFormats refFormats()

Gets the formats that the provider can provide its current contents in.

Returns:

The formats of the provider

refStorableFormats

public ContentFormats refStorableFormats()

Gets the formats that the provider suggests other applications to store the data in.

An example of such an application would be a clipboard manager.

This can be assumed to be a subset of refFormats().

Returns:

The storable formats of the provider

writeMimeTypeAsync

public void writeMimeTypeAsync(String mimeType,
 OutputStream stream,
 int ioPriority,
 @Nullable Cancellable cancellable,
 @Nullable AsyncReadyCallback callback)

Asynchronously writes the contents of this ContentProvider to stream in the given mimeType.

The given mime type does not need to be listed in the formats returned by refFormats(). However, if the given GType is not supported, G_IO_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED will be reported.

The given stream will not be closed.

Parameters:

mimeType - the mime type to provide the data in

stream - the GOutputStream to write to

ioPriority - I/O priority of the request.

cancellable - optional GCancellable object, null to ignore.

callback - callback to call when the request is satisfied

writeMimeTypeFinish

public boolean writeMimeTypeFinish(AsyncResult result)
                            throws GErrorException

Finishes an asynchronous write operation.

See writeMimeTypeAsync(java.lang.String, org.gnome.gio.OutputStream, int, org.gnome.gio.Cancellable, org.gnome.gio.AsyncReadyCallback).

Parameters:

result - a GAsyncResult

Returns:

true if the operation was completed successfully. Otherwise error will be set to describe the failure.

Throws:

GErrorException - see GError

attachClipboard

protected void attachClipboard(Clipboard clipboard)

detachClipboard

protected void detachClipboard(Clipboard clipboard)

onContentChanged

public SignalConnection<ContentProvider.ContentChangedCallback> onContentChanged(ContentProvider.ContentChangedCallback handler)

Emitted whenever the content provided by this provider has changed.

Parameters:

handler - the signal handler

Returns:

a signal handler ID to keep track of the signal connection

See Also:

• ContentProvider.ContentChangedCallback.run()

emitContentChanged

public void emitContentChanged()

Emits the "content-changed" signal. See onContentChanged(org.gnome.gdk.ContentProvider.ContentChangedCallback).

builder

public static ContentProvider.Builder<? extends ContentProvider.Builder> builder()

A ContentProvider.Builder object constructs a ContentProvider with the specified properties. Use the various set...() methods to set properties, and finish construction with ContentProvider.Builder.build().

Returns:

the builder object
