Gio.DataInputStream.read_until_async

### Method

# Gio DataInputStreamread_until_async

deprecated: 2.56 since: 2.20

#### Declaration

    void
    g_data_input_stream_read_until_async (
      GDataInputStream* stream,
      const gchar* stop_chars,
      gint io_priority,
      GCancellable* cancellable,
      GAsyncReadyCallback callback,
      gpointer user_data
    )

#### Description

The asynchronous version of g_data_input_stream_read_until(). It is an error to have two outstanding calls to this function.

Note that, in contrast to g_data_input_stream_read_until(), this function does not consume the stop character that it finds. You must read it for yourself.

When the operation is finished, `callback` will be called. You can then call `g_data_input_stream_read_until_finish()` to get the result of the operation.

Don’t use this function in new code. Its functionality is inconsistent with g_data_input_stream_read_until(). Both functions will be marked as deprecated in a future release. Use `g_data_input_stream_read_upto_async()` instead.

Available since: 2.20

Deprecated since: 2.56

Use `g_data_input_stream_read_upto_async()` instead, which has more consistent behaviour regarding the stop character.
