Description:

public class FileInputStream : InputStream, Seekable

GFileInputStream provides input streams that take their content from a file.

GFileInputStream implements Seekable, which allows the input stream to jump to arbitrary positions in the file, provided the filesystem of the file allows it. To find the position of a file input stream, use tell. To find out if a file input stream supports seeking, use g_seekable_stream_can_seek. To position a file input stream, use seek .

Methods:

public virtual bool can_seek ()
public virtual weak FileInfo query_info (string attributes, Cancellable? cancellable = null) throws Error
Queries a file input stream the given attributes. This function blocks while querying the stream. For the asynchronous (non-blocking) version of this function, see query_info_async. While the stream is blocked, the stream will set the pending flag internally, and any other operations on the stream will fail with PENDING.
public virtual async weak FileInfo query_info_async (string attributes, int io_priority = DEFAULT, Cancellable? cancellable = null) throws Error
Queries the stream information asynchronously. When the operation is finished callback will be called. You can then call g_file_input_stream_query_info_finish to get the result of the operation.
public virtual bool seek (int64 offset, SeekType type, Cancellable? cancellable = null) throws Error
public virtual int64 tell ()
