Method

GdkPixdataPixdatadeserialize

deprecated: 2.32

Declaration [src]

gboolean
gdk_pixdata_deserialize (
  GdkPixdata* pixdata,
  guint stream_length,
  const guint8* stream,
  GError** error
)

Description [src]

Deserializes (reconstruct) a GdkPixdata structure from a byte stream.

The byte stream consists of a straightforward writeout of the GdkPixdata fields in network byte order, plus the pixel_data bytes the structure points to.

The pixdata contents are reconstructed byte by byte and are checked for validity.

This function may fail with GDK_PIXBUF_ERROR_CORRUPT_IMAGE or GDK_PIXBUF_ERROR_UNKNOWN_TYPE.

Deprecated since: 2.32

Use GResource instead.

Parameters

stream_length

Type: guint

Length of the stream used for deserialization.

stream

Type: An array of guint8

Stream of bytes containing a serialized GdkPixdata structure.

The length of the array is specified in the stream_length argument.

The data is owned by the caller of the function.

error

Type: GError **

The return location for a recoverable error.

The argument can be NULL.

If the return location is not NULL, then you must initialize it to a NULL GError*.

The argument will left initialized to NULL by the method 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: gboolean

Upon successful deserialization TRUE is returned, FALSE otherwise.
