guess_content_type


Description:

[ CCode ( array_length = false , array_null_terminated = true ) ]
[ Version ( since = "2.18" ) ]
public abstract async string[] guess_content_type (bool force_rescan, Cancellable? cancellable = null) throws Error

Tries to guess the type of content stored on this.

Returns one or more textual identifiers of well-known content types (typically prefixed with "x-content/"), e.g. x-content/image-dcf for camera memory cards. See the shared-mime-info specification for more on x-content types.

This is an asynchronous operation (see guess_content_type_sync for the synchronous version), and is finished by calling guess_content_type.end with the this and AsyncResult data returned in the callback.

Parameters:

this

a Mount

force_rescan

Whether to force a rescan of the content. Otherwise a cached result will be used if available

cancellable

optional Cancellable object, null to ignore

callback

a TaskReadyCallback

user_data
