GIOChannel is expecting UTF8 text encoding for its data by default. If you want
to use it for raw binary data you need to use:
g_io_channel_set_encoding (giochannel,
NULL, /* encoding; force binary data */
NULL); /* error */
Here is also a function to setup binary non-buffered GIOChannel from its any
previous state. GLib produces some warnings if used in straightforward way:
void captive_giochannel_setup (GIOChannel *giochannel)
{
GIOStatus erriostatus;
g_return_if_fail (giochannel != NULL);
if (g_io_channel_get_encoding (giochannel)) {
if (! g_io_channel_get_buffered (giochannel)) /* Prevent: Need to have NULL \
encoding to set the buffering state ... */ g_io_channel_set_buffered (giochannel, \
TRUE); /* Prevent: Need to set the channel buffered before setting the encoding. */ \
erriostatus = g_io_channel_set_encoding (giochannel, NULL, /* encoding; force binary \
data */ NULL); /* error */
g_assert (erriostatus == G_IO_STATUS_NORMAL);
}
erriostatus = g_io_channel_flush (giochannel,
NULL); /* error */
g_assert (erriostatus == G_IO_STATUS_NORMAL);
g_io_channel_set_buffered (giochannel, FALSE);
}
Regards,
Lace
