Ide.g_file_get_children_async
Description: Reference for Ide.g_file_get_children_async

### Function

# Ideg_file_get_children_async

#### Declaration

    void
    ide_g_file_get_children_async (
      GFile* file,
      const gchar* attributes,
      GFileQueryInfoFlags flags,
      gint io_priority,
      GCancellable* cancellable,
      GAsyncReadyCallback callback,
      gpointer user_data
    )

#### Description

This function is like `g_file_enumerate_children_async()` except that it returns a `GPtrArray` of `GFileInfo` instead of an enumerator.

This can be convenient when you know you need all of the `GFileInfo` accessable at once, or the size will be small.
