Implemented Interfaces

MbimDevice implements GAsyncInitable.

Description

MbimDevice is a generic type in charge of controlling the access to the managed MBIM port.

A MbimDevice can only handle one single MBIM port.

Functions

mbim_device_new ()

void
mbim_device_new (GFile *file,
                 GCancellable *cancellable,
                 GAsyncReadyCallback callback,
                 gpointer user_data);

Asynchronously creates a MbimDevice object to manage file . When the operation is finished, callback will be invoked. You can then call mbim_device_new_finish() to get the result of the operation.

Parameters

file

a GFile.

 

cancellable

optional GCancellable object, NULL to ignore.

 

callback

a GAsyncReadyCallback to call when the initialization is finished.

 

user_data
