## Public Member Functions
sigc::connection | connect (const sigc::slot< bool, IOCondition >& slot, int fd, IOCondition condition, int priority=PRIORITY_DEFAULT)
| Connects an I/O handler.

| Connects an I/O channel.

## Member Function Documentation

sigc::connection Glib::SignalIO::connect | ( | const sigc::slot< bool, IOCondition >& | slot,
|  | int | fd,
|  | IOCondition | condition,
|  | int | priority = `PRIORITY_DEFAULT`
| ) |  |

Connects an I/O handler.

     Glib::signal_io().connect(sigc::ptr_fun(&io_handler), fd, Glib::IO_IN | Glib::IO_HUP);

is equivalent to:

     const Glib::RefPtr<Glib::IOSource> io_source = Glib::IOSource::create(fd, Glib::IO_IN | Glib::IO_HUP);
     io_source->connect(sigc::ptr_fun(&io_handler));
     io_source->attach(Glib::MainContext::get_default());

Parameters:

  slot | A slot to call when polling fd results in an event that matches condition. The event will be passed as a parameter to slot. If io_handler returns `false` the signal is disconnected.
  fd | The file descriptor (or a `HANDLE` on Win32 systems) to watch.
  condition | The conditions to watch for.
  priority | The priority of the new event source.

Returns:
  A connection handle, which can be used to disconnect the handler.

sigc::connection Glib::SignalIO::connect | ( | const sigc::slot< bool, IOCondition >& | slot,
|  | const Glib::RefPtr< IOChannel >& | channel,
|  | IOCondition | condition,
|  | int | priority = `PRIORITY_DEFAULT`
| ) |  |

Connects an I/O channel.

     Glib::signal_io().connect(sigc::ptr_fun(&io_handler), channel, Glib::IO_IN | Glib::IO_HUP);

is equivalent to:

     const Glib::RefPtr<Glib::IOSource> io_source = Glib::IOSource::create(channel, Glib::IO_IN | Glib::IO_HUP);
     io_source->connect(sigc::ptr_fun(&io_handler));
     io_source->attach(Glib::MainContext::get_default());

Parameters:

  slot | A slot to call when polling channel results in an event that matches condition. The event will be passed as a parameter to slot. If io_handler returns `false` the signal is disconnected.
  channel | The IOChannel object to watch.
  condition | The conditions to watch for.
  priority | The priority of the new event source.

Returns:
  A connection handle, which can be used to disconnect the handler.
