Socket.accept

Accept incoming connections on a connection-based socket. This removes the first outstanding connection request from the listening socket and creates a #GSocket object for it.

The socket must be bound to a local address with gio.socket.Socket.bind and must be listening for incoming connections (gio.socket.Socket.listen).

If there are no outstanding connections then the operation will block or return gio.types.IOErrorEnum.WouldBlock if non-blocking I/O is enabled. To be notified of an incoming connection, wait for the glib.types.IOCondition.In condition.

Parameters

cancellable gio.cancellable.Cancellable

Return Value

Type: gio.socket.Socket

a new #GSocket, or null on error. Free the returned object with gobject.object.ObjectG.unref.
