thunarx_provider_plugin_get_resident ()

gboolean
thunarx_provider_plugin_get_resident (const ThunarxProviderPlugin *plugin);

Determines whether the application is allowed to unload plugin from memory when no longer needed and reload it on demand. If FALSE is returned, then the application may unload plugin , else if TRUE is returned the application will take care that plugin is never unloaded from memory during the lifetime of the application.

thunarx_provider_plugin_set_resident ()

void
thunarx_provider_plugin_set_resident (ThunarxProviderPlugin *plugin,
                                      gboolean resident);

This method is used to instruct the application that plugin must be kept in memory during the lifetime of the application. The default is to allow the application to unload plugin from the memory when no longer needed. If this method is invoked with a resident value of TRUE then the application will never try to unload plugin .

This method has no effect unless called from the thunar_extension_initialize method of the plugin .

thunarx_provider_plugin_register_type ()

GType
thunarx_provider_plugin_register_type (ThunarxProviderPlugin *plugin,
                                       GType type_parent,
                                       const gchar *type_name,
                                       const GTypeInfo *type_info,
                                       GTypeFlags type_flags);

Looks up or registers a type that is implemented with a particular type plugin . If a type with name type_name was previously registered, the GType identifier for the type is returned, otherwise the type is newly registered, and the resulting GType identifier returned.

When reregistering a type (typically because a module is unloaded then reloaded, and reinitialized), module and type_parent must be the same as they were previously.

thunarx_provider_plugin_add_interface ()

void
thunarx_provider_plugin_add_interface (ThunarxProviderPlugin *plugin,
                                       GType instance_type,
                                       GType interface_type,
                                       const GInterfaceInfo *interface_info);

Registers an additional interface for a type, whose interface lives in the given type plugin . If the interface was already registered for the type in this plugin , nothing will be done.

As long as any instances of the type exist, the type plugin will not be unloaded.

thunarx_provider_plugin_register_enum ()

GType
thunarx_provider_plugin_register_enum (ThunarxProviderPlugin *plugin,
                                       const gchar *name,
                                       const GEnumValue *const_static_values);

Looks up or registers an enumeration that is implemented with a particular type plugin . If a type with name name was previously registered, the GType identifier for the type is returned, otherwise the type is newly registered, and the resulting GType identifier returned.

As long as any instances of the type exist, the type plugin will not be unloaded.

thunarx_provider_plugin_register_flags ()

GType
thunarx_provider_plugin_register_flags
                               (ThunarxProviderPlugin *plugin,
                                const gchar *name,
                                const GFlagsValue *const_static_values);

Looks up or registers a flags type that is implemented with a particular type plugin . If a type with name qname was previously registered, the GType identifier for the type is returned, otherwise the type is newly registered, and the resulting GType identifier returned.

As long as any instances of the type exist, the type plugin will not be unloaded.
