<p>Provides a base class for implementing asynchronous function results.</p>
<p>Asynchronous operations are broken up into two separate operations
which are chained together by a <a class="link" href="GAsyncResult.html#GAsyncReadyCallback" title="GAsyncReadyCallback ()"><span class="type">GAsyncReadyCallback</span></a>. To begin
an asynchronous operation, provide a <a class="link" href="GAsyncResult.html#GAsyncReadyCallback" title="GAsyncReadyCallback ()"><span class="type">GAsyncReadyCallback</span></a> to the
asynchronous function. This callback will be triggered when the
operation has completed, and will be passed a <a class="link" href="GAsyncResult.html" title="GAsyncResult"><span class="type">GAsyncResult</span></a> instance
filled with the details of the operation's success or failure, the
object the asynchronous function was started for and any error codes
returned. The asynchronous callback function is then expected to call
the corresponding "<code class="function">_finish()</code>" function, passing the object the
function was called for, the <a class="link" href="GAsyncResult.html" title="GAsyncResult"><span class="type">GAsyncResult</span></a> instance, and (optionally)
an <em class="parameter"><code>error</code></em>
to grab any error conditions that may have occurred.</p>
<p>The "<code class="function">_finish()</code>" function for an operation takes the generic result
(of type <a class="link" href="GAsyncResult.html" title="GAsyncResult"><span class="type">GAsyncResult</span></a>) and returns the specific result that the
operation in question yields (e.g. a <a class="link" href="GFileEnumerator.html" title="GFileEnumerator"><span class="type">GFileEnumerator</span></a> for a
"enumerate children" operation). If the result or error status of the
operation is not needed, there is no need to call the "<code class="function">_finish()</code>"
function; GIO will take care of cleaning up the result and error
information after the <a class="link" href="GAsyncResult.html#GAsyncReadyCallback" title="GAsyncReadyCallback ()"><span class="type">GAsyncReadyCallback</span></a> returns. You can pass
<a href="../glib-Standard-Macros.html#NULL:CAPS"><code class="literal">NULL</code></a> for the <a class="link" href="GAsyncResult.html#GAsyncReadyCallback" title="GAsyncReadyCallback ()"><span class="type">GAsyncReadyCallback</span></a> if you don't need to take any
action at all after the operation completes. Applications may also
take a reference to the <a class="link" href="GAsyncResult.html" title="GAsyncResult"><span class="type">GAsyncResult</span></a> and call "<code class="function">_finish()</code>" later;
however, the "<code class="function">_finish()</code>" function may be called at most once.</p>
<p>Example of a typical asynchronous operation flow:</p>

<p>The callback for an asynchronous operation is called only once, and is
always called, even in the case of a cancelled operation. On cancellation
the result is a <a class="link" href="gio-GIOError.html#G-IO-ERROR-CANCELLED:CAPS"><code class="literal">G_IO_ERROR_CANCELLED</code></a> error.</p>
<div class="refsect3">
<a name="io-priority"></a><h4>I/O Priority</h4>
<p>Many I/O-related asynchronous operations have a priority parameter,
which is used in certain cases to determine the order in which
operations are executed. They are not used to determine system-wide
I/O scheduling. Priorities are integers, with lower numbers indicating
higher priority. It is recommended to choose priorities between
<a href="../glib-The-Main-Event-Loop.html#G-PRIORITY-LOW:CAPS"><code class="literal">G_PRIORITY_LOW</code></a> and <a href="../glib-The-Main-Event-Loop.html#G-PRIORITY-HIGH:CAPS"><code class="literal">G_PRIORITY_HIGH</code></a>, with <a href="../glib-The-Main-Event-Loop.html#G-PRIORITY-DEFAULT:CAPS"><code class="literal">G_PRIORITY_DEFAULT</code></a>
