Description

Details

ipatch_util_value_bool_true

extern GValue *ipatch_util_value_bool_true;

ipatch_util_value_bool_false

extern GValue *ipatch_util_value_bool_false;

IPATCH_UTIL_VALUE_BOOL()

#define             IPATCH_UTIL_VALUE_BOOL(b)

ipatch_util_value_hash ()

guint               ipatch_util_value_hash              (GValue *val);

Hash a GValue. The hash value can then be used in a GHashTable for example.

`val` :	GValue to hash
Returns :	Hash value corresponding to the `val` key.

ipatch_util_value_array_hash ()

guint               ipatch_util_value_array_hash        (GValueArray *valarray);

Hash a GValueArray. The hash value can then be used in a GHashTable for example.

`valarray` :	GValueArray to hash
Returns :	Hash value corresponding to the sum of all values returned by `ipatch_util_value_hash()` for each GValue in the array.

ipatch_util_file_size ()

guint64             ipatch_util_file_size               (const char *fname,
                                                         GError **err);

Get the size of a file (tired of using stat every time?).

`fname` :	Path of file to get size of.
`err` :	Location to store error or NULL
Returns :	File size. Will return 0 on error, but `err` must be checked if it is set to determine if an error really occurred.
