Constructor

TermboxTerminalnew_for_fds

Declaration

TbgTerminal*
tbg_terminal_new_for_fds (
  int read_fd,
  int write_fd,
  GError** error
)

Description

Initialize termbox from separate terminal file descriptors and return the terminal singleton.

If a terminal already exists, this fails with TBG_ERROR_INIT_ALREADY. Use tbg_terminal_get_default() to retrieve the existing terminal. Otherwise this initializes termbox using read_fd and write_fd and creates a new TbgTerminal. The caller retains ownership of both file descriptors and must keep them valid for the lifetime of the terminal.

This wraps tb_init_rwfd().

Parameters

read_fd

Type: int

Terminal file descriptor to read from.

write_fd

Type: int

Terminal file descriptor to write to.

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 be left initialized to NULL by the constructor 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: TbgTerminal

A TbgTerminal, or NULL on error.

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

The return value can be NULL.
