}
If subclassed, Nemo will call update_file_info(_full) to notify extensions of which files are being viewed by the user. This gives extensions an opportunity to invoke actions on the files, or to add emblems or attributes.

This method is called by Nemo for each file or folder that exists under the current directory listing. There is no return value.

a Nemo.FileInfo object |
Returns : |
None or a Nemo.OperationResult enum |
This method is called by Nemo for each file or folder that exists under the
current directory listing. Originally, Nemo.InfoProvider
only provided the update_file_info
method, which blocked Nemo when the method required a lot of computation time. This method was
created to allow an extension to tell Nemo that it will be spending time on an operation and that
Nemo should not block itself during that time.
In order to notify Nemo of your extension's intentions, you must return a
Nemo.OperationResult
enum.
Then, when the operation has completed, call the Nemo.info_provider_update_complete_invoke method, passing the provider,
handle and closure variables as parameters.
This method was created for backwards compatibility reasons. If your
extension used the update_file_info
method and you want non-blocking
usage, you should switch to this method.
cancel_update(provider,
handle);
|
the current Nemo.InfoProvider instance |
|
a gobject.gpointer generated by a specific update_file_info_full call |
This method is called by Nemo when an update_file_info_full call is in progress
but is no longer required. This may happen because the user is moving directories or a file
has been deleted, etc. You may use the handle parameter here to match the
handle parameter passed in update_file_info_full
.
info_provider_update_complete_invoke(provider,
handle,
closure,
result= Nemo.OperationResult.COMPLETE);
|
the current Nemo.InfoProvider instance |
|
a gobject.gpointer generated by a specific update_file_info_full call |
|
a C Closure that must be passed to Nemo.info_provider_update_complete_invoke if that method is called |
|
an optional parameter. If left out, Nemo.OperationResult.COMPLETE is assumed.
Otherwise, you may pass any any of the Nemo.OperationResult enums. |
An extension must call this method for each update_file_info_full method that
returns the Nemo.OperationResult.IN_PROGRESS
enum.
The method must be called with the provider, handle, and closure parameters which were passed to the earlier update_file_info_full
method.
