Description

Creates a new file attribute matcher, which matches attributes against a given string. GFileAttributeMatchers are reference counted structures, and are created with a reference count of 1. If the number of references falls to 0, the GFileAttributeMatcher is automatically destroyed.

Usage

gFileAttributeMatcherNew(attributes)

Arguments

attributes
an attribute string to match.

Value

GFileAttributeMatcher] a GFileAttributeMatcher.

Details

The attribute string should be formatted with specific keys separated from namespaces with a double colon. Several "namespace::key" strings may be concatenated with a single comma (e.g. "standard::type,standard::is-hidden"). The wildcard "*" may be used to match all keys and namespaces, or "namespace::*" will match all keys in a given namespace. Examples of strings to use:
"*"
matches all attributes.
"standard::is-hidden"
matches only the key is-hidden in the standard namespace.
"standard::type,unix::*"
matches the type key in the standard namespace and all keys in the unix namespace.
