Functions

gnome_keyring_is_available ()

gboolean
gnome_keyring_is_available (void);

When using libsecret, use GCancellable to cancel asynchronous requests.

Cancel an asynchronous request.

If a callback was registered when making the asynchronous request, that callback function will be called with a result of GNOME_KEYRING_RESULT_CANCELLED

Parameters

request

The request returned from the asynchronous call function.
