<title>Variable Argument Conversions</title>

<para>
|

This page attempts to document how to perform variable argument
|
|
conversions with GVariant.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Conversions occur according to format strings. A format string is a two-way mapping between a single
|
|
<link linkend='GVariant'>GVariant</link> value and one or more C values.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
A conversion from C values into a <link linkend='GVariant'>GVariant</link> value is made using the
|
|
<link linkend='g-variant-new'><function>g_variant_new()</function></link> function. A conversion from a
|
|
<link linkend='GVariant'>GVariant</link> into C values is made using the
|
|
<link linkend='g-variant-get'><function>g_variant_get()</function></link> function.

This section exhaustively describes all possibilities for GVariant format strings. There are no valid forms of

format strings other than those described here. Please note that the format string syntax is likely to expand in the
|

future.

Note that in C, small integer types in variable argument lists are promoted up to <link
|
|
linkend='gint'><type>int</type></link> or <link linkend='guint'><type>unsigned int</type></link> as appropriate, and
|
|
read back accordingly. <link linkend='gint'><type>int</type></link> is 32 bits on every platform on which GLib is
|
|
currently supported. This means that you can use C expressions of type <link linkend='gint'><type>int</type></link>
|
|
with <link linkend='g-variant-new'><function>g_variant_new()</function></link> and format characters
|
|
'<literal>b</literal>', '<literal>y</literal>', '<literal>n</literal>', '<literal>q</literal>',
|
|
'<literal>i</literal>', '<literal>u</literal>' and '<literal>h</literal>'. Specifically, you can use integer
|
|
literals with these characters.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
When using the '<literal>x</literal>' and '<literal>t</literal>' characters, you must ensure that the value that you
|
|
provide is 64 bit. This means that you should use a cast or make use of the
|
|
<link linkend='G-GINT64-CONSTANT:CAPS'><literal>G_GINT64_CONSTANT</literal></link> or
|
|
<link linkend='G-GUINT64-CONSTANT:CAPS'><literal>G_GUINT64_CONSTANT</literal></link> macros.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
No type promotion occurs when using <link linkend='g-variant-get'><function>g_variant_get()</function></link> since
|
|
it operates with pointers. The pointers must always point to a memory region of exactly the correct size.

Characters: <literal>m</literal>

</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Maybe types are handled in two separate ways depending on the format string that follows the
|
|
'<literal>m</literal>'. The method that is used currently depends entirely on the character immediately following the
|
|
'<literal>m</literal>'.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
The first way is used with format strings starting with '<literal>a</literal>', '<literal>s</literal>',
|
|
'<literal>o</literal>', '<literal>g</literal>', '<literal>v</literal>', '<literal>@</literal>',
|
|
'<literal>*</literal>', '<literal>?</literal>', '<literal>r</literal>', '<literal>&</literal>', or
|
|
'<literal>^</literal>'. In all of these cases, for non-maybe types,
|
|
<link linkend='g-variant-new'><function>g_variant_new()</function></link> takes a pointer to a
|
|
non-<link linkend='NULL:CAPS'><literal>NULL</literal></link> value and
|
|
<link linkend='g-variant-get'><function>g_variant_get()</function></link> returns (by reference) a
|
|
non-<link linkend='NULL:CAPS'><literal>NULL</literal></link> pointer. When any of these format strings are
|
|
prefixed with an '<literal>m</literal>', the type of arguments that are collected does not change in any way, but
|
|
<link linkend='NULL:CAPS'><literal>NULL</literal></link> becomes a permissible value, to indicate the Nothing case.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Note that the "special exception" introduced in the array section for constructing empty arrays is ignored
|
|
here. Using a <literal>NULL</literal> pointer with the format string '<literal>mas</literal>' constructs
|
|
the Nothing value -- not an empty array.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
The second way is used with all other format strings. For
|
|
<link linkend='g-variant-new'><function>g_variant_new()</function></link> an additional
|
|
<link linkend='gboolean'><type>gboolean</type></link> argument is collected and for
|
|
<link linkend='g-variant-get'><function>g_variant_get()</function></link> an additional
|
|
<code>(<link linkend='gboolean'>gboolean</link> *)</code>. Following this argument, the arguments that are normally
|
|
collected for the equivalent non-maybe type will be collected.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
If <link linkend='FALSE:CAPS'><literal>FALSE</literal></link> is given to
|
|
<link linkend='g-variant-new'><function>g_variant_new()</function></link> then the Nothing value is constructed and
|
|
the collected arguments are ignored. Otherwise (if <link linkend='TRUE:CAPS'><literal>TRUE</literal></link> was
|
|
given), the arguments are used in the normal way to create the Just value.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
If <link linkend='NULL:CAPS'><literal>NULL</literal></link> is given to
|
|
<link linkend='g-variant-get'><function>g_variant_get()</function></link> then the value is ignored. If a
|
|
non-<link linkend='NULL:CAPS'><literal>NULL</literal></link> pointer is given then it is used to return by reference
|
|
whether the value was Just. In the case that the value was Just, the
|
|
<link linkend='gboolean'><type>gboolean</type></link> will be set to
|
|
<link linkend='TRUE:CAPS'><literal>TRUE</literal></link> and the value will be stored in the arguments in the usual
|
|
way. In the case that the value was Nothing, the <link linkend='gboolean'><type>gboolean</type></link> will be set to
|
|
<link linkend='FALSE:CAPS'><literal>FALSE</literal></link> and the arguments will be collected in the normal way
|
|
but have their values set to binary zero.

The '<code>&</code>' character is used to indicate that serialized data should be directly exchanged via a
|
|
pointer.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Currently, the only use for this character is when it is applied to a string (ie: '<literal>&s</literal>',
|
|
'<literal>&o</literal>' or '<code>&g</code>'). For
|
|
<link linkend='g-variant-new'><function>g_variant_new()</function></link> this has absolutely no effect. The string
|
|
is collected and duplicated normally. For <link linkend='g-variant-get'><function>g_variant_get()</function></link>
|
|
it means that instead of creating a newly allocated copy of the string, a pointer to the serialized data is
|
|
returned. This pointer should not be freed. Validity checks are performed to ensure that the string data will
|
|
always be properly nul-terminated.

<para>
|

The '<literal>^</literal>' character currently supports conversion to and from bytestrings or to and from arrays
|
|
of strings or bytestrings. It does not support byte arrays. It has a number of forms.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
In all forms, when used with <link linkend='g-variant-new'><function>g_variant_new()</function></link> one
|
|
pointer value is collected from the variable arguments and passed to a function (as given in the table below).
|
|
The result of that function is used as the value for this position. When used with
|
|
<link linkend='g-variant-get'><function>g_variant_get()</function></link> one pointer value is produced by using
|
|
the function (given in the table) and returned by reference.
