DataInputStream.readUntilAsync

The asynchronous version of gio.data_input_stream.DataInputStream.readUntil. It is an error to have two outstanding calls to this function.

Note that, in contrast to gio.data_input_stream.DataInputStream.readUntil, 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 gio.data_input_stream.DataInputStream.readUntilFinish to get the result of the operation.

Don't use this function in new code. Its functionality is inconsistent with gio.data_input_stream.DataInputStream.readUntil. Both functions will be marked as deprecated in a future release. Use gio.data_input_stream.DataInputStream.readUptoAsync instead.

Detailed Description

Deprecated: Use gio.data_input_stream.DataInputStream.readUptoAsync instead, which has more consistent behaviour regarding the stop character.
