gVolumeGetActivationRoot: gVolumeGetActivationRoot
In RGtk2: R Bindings for Gtk 2.8.0 and Above

Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s)

Gets the activation root for a GVolume if it is known ahead of mount time. Returns NULL otherwise. If not NULL and if volume is mounted, then the result of gMountGetRoot on the GMount object obtained from gVolumeGetMount will always either be equal or a prefix of what this function returns. In other words, in code

1	gVolumeGetActivationRoot(object)

object

a GVolume

  GMount *mount;
  GFile *mount_root
  GFile *volume_activation_root;

  mount = g_volume_get_mount (volume); /* mounted, so never NULL */
  mount_root = g_mount_get_root (mount);
  volume_activation_root = g_volume_get_activation_root(volume); /* assume not NULL */

then the expression

1 2	(g_file_has_prefix (volume_activation_root, mount_root) \|\| g_file_equal (volume_activation_root, mount_root))

will always be TRUE.

Activation roots are typically used in GVolumeMonitor implementations to find the underlying mount to shadow, see gMountIsShadowed for more details. Since 2.18

[GFile] the activation root of volume or NULL.
