Read/write file pipes in vala/glib

问题:

I am using the glib vala function glib.process.spawn_async_with_pipes()(http://references.valadoc.org/#!api=glib-2.0/GLib.Process.spawn_async_with_pipes), which outputs some ints corresponding to stdin, stdout, and stderr. How would I use these pipes in Vala?

回答1:

Modified example which also writes stuff to stdin:

private static bool process_line (IOChannel channel, IOCondition condition, string stream_name) {
    if (condition == IOCondition.HUP) {
        stdout.printf ("%s: The fd has been closed.\n", stream_name);
        return false;
    }

    try {
        string line;
        channel.read_line (out line, null, null);
        stdout.printf ("%s: %s", stream_name, line);
    } catch (IOChannelError e) {
        stdout.printf ("%s: IOChannelError: %s\n", stream_name, e.message);
        return false;
    } catch (ConvertError e) {
        stdout.printf ("%s: ConvertError: %s\n", stream_name, e.message);
        return false;
    }

    return true;
}

public static int main (string[] args) {
    MainLoop loop = new MainLoop ();
    try {
        string[] spawn_args = {"ls", "-l", "-h"};
        string[] spawn_env = Environ.get ();
        Pid child_pid;

        int standard_input;
        int standard_output;
        int standard_error;

        Process.spawn_async_with_pipes ("/",
        spawn_args,
        spawn_env,
        SpawnFlags.SEARCH_PATH | SpawnFlags.DO_NOT_REAP_CHILD,
        null,
        out child_pid,
        out standard_input,
        out standard_output,
        out standard_error);

        // stdout:
        IOChannel output = new IOChannel.unix_new (standard_output);
        output.add_watch (IOCondition.IN | IOCondition.HUP, (channel, condition) => {
            return process_line (channel, condition, "stdout");
        });

        // stderr:
        IOChannel error = new IOChannel.unix_new (standard_error);
        error.add_watch (IOCondition.IN | IOCondition.HUP, (channel, condition) => {
            return process_line (channel, condition, "stderr");
        });

        // stdin
        GLib.FileStream input = GLib.FileStream.fdopen (standard_input, "w");
        input.write ("Hello, spawned process!".data);

        ChildWatch.add (child_pid, (pid, status) => {
            // Triggered when the child indicated by child_pid exits
            Process.close_pid (pid);
            loop.quit ();
        });

        loop.run ();
    } catch (SpawnError e) {
        stdout.printf ("Error: %s\n", e.message);
    }
    return 0;
}

Instead of a GLib.FileStream.fdopen, you could also just use Posix.write and friends, GLib.UnixOutputStream, etc.
