Function

GcrSystemPromptopen_for_prompter

Declaration [src]

GcrPrompt*
gcr_system_prompt_open_for_prompter (
  const gchar* prompter_name,
  gint timeout_seconds,
  GCancellable* cancellable,
  GError** error
)

Description [src]

Opens a system prompt. If prompter_name is NULL, then the default system prompter is used.

Most system prompters only allow showing one prompt at a time, and if another prompt is shown then this method will block for up to timeout_seconds seconds. If timeout_seconds is equal to -1, then this will block indefinitely until the prompt can be opened. If timeout_seconds expires, then this function will fail with a GCR_SYSTEM_PROMPT_IN_PROGRESS error.
