gboolean
e_book_backend_sync_open (
  EBookBackendSync* backend,
  GCancellable* cancellable,
  GError** error
)

Description [src]

Opens” the backend. Opening a backend is something of an outdated concept, but the operation is hanging around for a little while longer. This usually involves some custom initialization logic, and testing of remote authentication if applicable.

If an error occurs, the function will set error and return FALSE.

Available since: 3.34

Parameters

cancellable

Type: GCancellable

Optional GCancellable object, or NULL.

The argument can be NULL.
The data is owned by the caller of the method.
error

Type: GError **

The return location for a recoverable error.

The argument can be NULL.
If the return location is not NULL, then you must initialize it to a NULL GError*.
The argument will be left initialized to NULL by the method if there are no errors.
In case of error, the argument will be set to a newly allocated GError; the caller will take ownership of the data, and be responsible for freeing it.

Return value

Type: gboolean

TRUE on success, FALSE on failure.
