Interface for VPN editor plugins.

GTypeInterface g_iface;

the parent interface

get_editor ()

returns an NMVpnEditor, pre-filled with values from connection if non-NULL.

get_capabilities ()

returns a bitmask of capabilities.

import_from_file ()

Try to import a connection from the specified path. On success, return a partial NMConnection object. On error, return NULL and set error with additional information. Note that error can be NULL, in which case no additional error information should be provided.

export_to_file ()

Export the given connection to the specified path. Return TRUE on success. On error, return FALSE and set error with additional error information. Note that error can be NULL, in which case no additional error information should be provided.

get_suggested_filename ()

For a given connection, return a suggested file name. Returned value will be NULL or a suggested file name to be freed by the caller.

Load the shared libary plugin_name and create a new NMVpnEditorPlugin instace via the NMVpnEditorPluginFactory function.

If plugin_name is not an absolute path name, it assumes the file is in the plugin directory of NetworkManager. In any case, the call will do certain checks on the file before passing it to dlopen. A consequence for that is, that you cannot omit the ".so" suffix.

plugin_name :

The path or name of the shared library to load. The path must either be an absolute filename to an existing file. Alternatively, it can be the name (without path) of a library in the plugin directory of NetworkManager.

check_service :

if not-null, check that the loaded plugin advertises the given service.

check_owner :

if non-negative, check whether the file is owned by UID check_owner or by root. In this case also check that the file is not writable by anybody else.

check_file :

optional callback to validate the file prior to loading the shared library. [scope call]

user_data :

user data for check_file

error :

on failure the error reason.

Returns :

a new plugin instance or NULL on error. [transfer full]
