Ide.SessionAddin.save_page_async
Description: Reference for Ide.SessionAddin.save_page_async

### Virtual Method

# Ide SessionAddinsave_page_async

#### Declaration

    void
    save_page_async (
      IdeSessionAddin* self,
      IdePage* page,
      GCancellable* cancellable,
      GAsyncReadyCallback callback,
      gpointer user_data
    )

#### Description

Asynchronous request to save a page’s session state.

The addin implementation must not attempt to save the page’s position within its parent `IdeGrid`. Instead it must only save how to restore the content of the page (e.g. opening URI foo://path/to/file at position X:Y). It is the `IdeSession` that manages the position of the pages, which means session addins implementation can be much simpler. See also ide_session_addin_save_page_finish().

The resulting state will be provided when restoring the page at a future time with ide_session_addin_restore_page_async().
