Description

GdictClientContext is an implementation of the GdictContext interface. It implements the Dictionary Protocol as defined by the RFC 2229 in order to connect to a dictionary server.

You should rarely instantiate this object directely: use an appropriate GdictSource instead.

Functions

gdict_client_context_error_quark ()

GQuark
gdict_client_context_error_quark (void);

Returns

gdict_client_context_new ()

GdictContext *
gdict_client_context_new (const gchar *hostname,
                          gint port);

Creates a new GdictClientContext object for hostname . Use this object to connect and query the dictionary server using the Dictionary Protocol as defined by RFC 2229.

Parameters

hostname

the hostname of a dictionary server, or NULL for the default server

  

port

port to be used when connecting to the dictionary server, or -1 for the default port

  

Returns

the newly created GdictClientContext object. You should free it using g_object_unref().

gdict_client_context_set_hostname ()

void
gdict_client_context_set_hostname (GdictClientContext *context,
                                   const gchar *hostname);

Sets hostname as the hostname of the dictionary server to be used. If hostname is NULL, the default dictionary server will be used.

Parameters

context

a GdictClientContext

  

hostname

the hostname of a Dictionary server, or NULL

  

gdict_client_context_get_hostname ()

const gchar *
gdict_client_context_get_hostname (GdictClientContext *context);

Gets the hostname of the dictionary server used by context .

Parameters

context

a GdictClientContext

  

Returns

the hostname of a dictionary server. The returned string is owned by the GdictClientContext object and should never be modified or freed.

gdict_client_context_set_port ()

void
gdict_client_context_set_port (GdictClientContext *context,
                               gint port);

Sets the port of the dictionary server to be used when connecting.

If port is -1, the default port will be used.

Parameters

context

a GdictClientContext

  

port

port of the dictionary server to be used, or -1

  

gdict_client_context_get_port ()

guint
gdict_client_context_get_port (GdictClientContext *context);

Gets the port of the dictionary server used by context .

Parameters

context

a GdictClientContext

  

Returns

the number of the port.

gdict_client_context_set_client ()

void
gdict_client_context_set_client (GdictClientContext *context,
                                 const gchar *client);

Sets client as the client name to be used when advertising ourselves when a connection the the dictionary server has been established. If client is NULL, the default client name will be used.

Parameters

context

a GdictClientContext

  

client

the client name to use, or NULL

  

gdict_client_context_get_client ()

const gchar *
gdict_client_context_get_client (GdictClientContext *context);

Gets the client name used by context . See gdict_client_context_set_client().

Parameters

context

a GdictClientContext

  

Returns

the client name. The returned string is owned by the GdictClientContext object and should never be modified or freed.

Types and Values

GDICT_CLIENT_CONTEXT_ERROR

#define GDICT_CLIENT_CONTEXT_ERROR (gdict_client_context_error_quark ())

enum GdictClientContextError

GdictClientContext error enumeration
