thunar_folder_get_for_file ()

ThunarFolder *
thunar_folder_get_for_file (ThunarFile *file);

Opens the specified file as ThunarFolder and returns a reference to the folder.

The caller is responsible to free the returned object using g_object_unref() when no longer needed.

thunar_folder_get_corresponding_file ()

ThunarFile *
thunar_folder_get_corresponding_file (const ThunarFolder *folder);

Returns the ThunarFile corresponding to this folder .

No reference is taken on the returned ThunarFile for the caller, so if you need a persistent reference to the file, you'll have to call g_object_ref() yourself.

thunar_folder_get_files ()

GHashTable *
thunar_folder_get_files (const ThunarFolder *folder);

Returns the hashtable of files currently known for folder . The data is owned by the ThunarFile instance and should not be modified or freed.

gboolean
thunar_folder_get_loading (const ThunarFolder *folder);

Tells whether the contents of the folder are currently being loaded.

thunar_folder_has_folder_monitor ()

gboolean
thunar_folder_has_folder_monitor (const ThunarFolder *folder);

Tells whether the folder has a folder monitor running
