Function

GimpConfigPathexpand_to_files

since: 2.10

Declaration [src]

GList*
gimp_config_path_expand_to_files (
  const gchar* path,
  GError** error
)

Description [src]

Paths as stored in the gimprc have to be treated special. The string may contain special identifiers such as for example ${gimp_dir} that have to be substituted before use. Also the user’s filesystem may be in a different encoding than UTF-8 (which is what is used for the gimprc).

This function runs path through gimp_config_path_expand() and gimp_path_parse(), then turns the filenames returned by gimp_path_parse() into GFile using g_file_new_for_path().

Available since: 2.10

Parameters

path

Type: const gchar*

A NUL-terminated string in UTF-8 encoding.

The data is owned by the caller of the function.
The value is a NUL terminated UTF-8 string.
error

Type: GError **

The return location for a recoverable error.

The argument can be NULL.
If the return location is not NULL, then you must initialize it to a NULL GError*.
The argument will left initialized to NULL by the function if there are no errors.
In case of error, the argument will be set to a newly allocated GError; the caller will take ownership of the data, and be responsible for freeing it.

Return value

Type: A list of None

             a `GList` of newly allocated `GFile` objects.

The caller of the function takes ownership of the data, and is responsible for freeing it.
