gFileLoadContentsAsync {RGtk2} | R Documentation

## gFileLoadContentsAsync

### Description

Starts an asynchronous load of the `file`'s contents.

### Usage

    gFileLoadContentsAsync(object, cancellable = NULL, callback,
        user.data = NULL)

### Arguments

``object`` | input `GFile`.
``cancellable`` | optional `GCancellable` object, `NULL` to ignore.
``callback`` | a `GAsyncReadyCallback` to call when the request is satisfied
``user.data`` | the data to pass to callback function

### Details

For more details, see `gFileLoadContents` which is the synchronous version of this call.

When the load operation has completed, `callback` will be called with `user` data. To finish the operation, call `gFileLoadContentsFinish` with the `GAsyncResult` returned by the `callback`.

If `cancellable` is not `NULL`, then the operation can be cancelled by triggering the cancellable object from another thread. If the operation was cancelled, the error `G_IO_ERROR_CANCELLED` will be returned.
