Declaration [src]

GIOStream*
upload (
  ValentChannel* channel,
  JsonNode* packet,
  GCancellable* cancellable,
  GError** error
)

Description [src]

Accept an auxiliary connection, usually to upload data.

Implementations should set the payloadTransferInfo field with information the peer can use to open a connection and wait to accept that connection. In most cases the remote device with expect the caller to write to the stream and then close it when finished.

For example, a TCP-based implementation could start listening on a port then send the packet with that port in the payloadTransferInfo dictionary. When a connection is accepted the caller can perform operations on it as required.

Available since: 1.0

Parameters

A KDE Connect packet.

The argument can be NULL.

The argument will be left initialized to NULL by the virtual function if there are no errors.

In case of error, the argument will be set to a newly allocated GError; the caller will take ownership of the data, and be responsible for freeing it.

Return value

Type: GIOStream

A GIOStream.

The caller of the method takes ownership of the returned data, and is responsible for freeing it.
