VtePtyset_size

Declaration [src]

gboolean
vte_pty_set_size (
  VtePty* pty,
  int rows,
  int columns,
  GError** error
)

Description [src]

Attempts to resize the pseudo terminal’s window size. If successful, the OS kernel will send SIGWINCH to the child process group.

If setting the window size failed, error will be set to a GIOError.

Parameters

rows

Type: int

The desired number of rows.

columns

Type: int

The desired number of columns.

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 with error filled in.
