<a name="GdkPixbufLoader.description"></a><h2>Description</h2>
<p><a class="link" href="GdkPixbufLoader.html" title="GdkPixbufLoader"><span class="type">GdkPixbufLoader</span></a> provides a way for applications to drive the
process of loading an image, by letting them send the image data
directly to the loader instead of having the loader read the data
from a file. Applications can use this functionality instead of
<a class="link" href="gdk-pixbuf-File-Loading.html#gdk-pixbuf-new-from-file" title="gdk_pixbuf_new_from_file ()"><code class="function">gdk_pixbuf_new_from_file()</code></a> or <a class="link" href="gdk-pixbuf-Animations.html#gdk-pixbuf-animation-new-from-file" title="gdk_pixbuf_animation_new_from_file ()"><code class="function">gdk_pixbuf_animation_new_from_file()</code></a>
when they need to parse image data in
small chunks. For example, it should be used when reading an
image from a (potentially) slow network connection, or when
loading an extremely large file.</p>
<p>To use <a class="link" href="GdkPixbufLoader.html" title="GdkPixbufLoader"><span class="type">GdkPixbufLoader</span></a> to load an image, just create a new one, and
call <a class="link" href="GdkPixbufLoader.html#gdk-pixbuf-loader-write" title="gdk_pixbuf_loader_write ()"><code class="function">gdk_pixbuf_loader_write()</code></a> to send the data to it. When done,
<a class="link" href="GdkPixbufLoader.html#gdk-pixbuf-loader-close" title="gdk_pixbuf_loader_close ()"><code class="function">gdk_pixbuf_loader_close()</code></a> should be called to end the stream and
finalize everything. The loader will emit three important signals
throughout the process. The first, <a class="link" href="GdkPixbufLoader.html#GdkPixbufLoader-size-prepared" title="The “size-prepared” signal"><span class="type">“size-prepared”</span></a>,
will be emitted as soon as the image has enough information to
determine the size of the image to be used. If you want to scale
the image while loading it, you can call <a class="link" href="GdkPixbufLoader.html#gdk-pixbuf-loader-set-size" title="gdk_pixbuf_loader_set_size ()"><code class="function">gdk_pixbuf_loader_set_size()</code></a>
in response to this signal.</p>
<p>The second signal, <a class="link" href="GdkPixbufLoader.html#GdkPixbufLoader-area-prepared" title="The “area-prepared” signal"><span class="type">“area-prepared”</span></a>, will be emitted as
soon as the pixbuf of the desired has been allocated. You can obtain it
by calling <a class="link" href="GdkPixbufLoader.html#gdk-pixbuf-loader-get-pixbuf" title="gdk_pixbuf_loader_get_pixbuf ()"><code class="function">gdk_pixbuf_loader_get_pixbuf()</code></a>. If you want to use it, simply
ref it. You can also call <a class="link" href="GdkPixbufLoader.html#gdk-pixbuf-loader-get-pixbuf" title="gdk_pixbuf_loader_get_pixbuf ()"><code class="function">gdk_pixbuf_loader_get_pixbuf()</code></a> later and get
the same pixbuf.</p>
<p>The last signal, <a class="link" href="GdkPixbufLoader.html#GdkPixbufLoader-area-updated" title="The “area-updated” signal"><span class="type">“area-updated”</span></a>, gets emitted every time
a region is updated. This way you can update a partially completed image.
Note that you do not know anything about the completeness of an image
from the updated area. For example, in an interlaced image, you need to
make several passes before the image is done loading.</p>
<div class="refsect2">
<a name="id-1.2.15.8.6"></a><h3>Loading an animation</h3>
<p>Loading an animation is almost as easy as loading an image. Once the first
<a class="link" href="GdkPixbufLoader.html#GdkPixbufLoader-area-prepared" title="The “area-prepared” signal"><span class="type">“area-prepared”</span></a> signal has been emitted, you can call
<a class="link" href="GdkPixbufLoader.html#gdk-pixbuf-loader-get-animation" title="gdk_pixbuf_loader_get_animation ()"><code class="function">gdk_pixbuf_loader_get_animation()</code></a> to get the <a class="link" href="gdk-pixbuf-Animations.html#GdkPixbufAnimation"><span class="type">GdkPixbufAnimation</span></a> struct

that enough data has been read to know the size of the image that
