WebKit2.WebView::load-changed (original) (raw)

Signal

WebKit2WebView::load-changed

Declaration

void
load_changed (
  WebKitWebView* self,
  WebKitLoadEvent load_event,
  gpointer user_data
)

Description [src]

Emitted when a load operation in web_view changes. The signal is always emitted with WEBKIT_LOAD_STARTED when a new load request is made and WEBKIT_LOAD_FINISHED when the load finishes successfully or due to an error. When the ongoing load operation fails WebKitWebView::load-failed signal is emitted before WebKitWebView::load-changed is emitted withWEBKIT_LOAD_FINISHED. If a redirection is received from the server, this signal is emitted with WEBKIT_LOAD_REDIRECTED after the initial emission withWEBKIT_LOAD_STARTED and before WEBKIT_LOAD_COMMITTED. When the page content starts arriving the signal is emitted withWEBKIT_LOAD_COMMITTED event.

You can handle this signal and use a switch to track any ongoing load operation.

static void web_view_load_changed (WebKitWebView *web_view, WebKitLoadEvent load_event, gpointer user_data) { switch (load_event) { case WEBKIT_LOAD_STARTED: // New load, we have now a provisional URI provisional_uri = webkit_web_view_get_uri (web_view); // Here we could start a spinner or update the // location bar with the provisional URI break; case WEBKIT_LOAD_REDIRECTED: redirected_uri = webkit_web_view_get_uri (web_view); break; case WEBKIT_LOAD_COMMITTED: // The load is being performed. Current URI is // the final one and it won't change unless a new // load is requested or a navigation within the // same page is performed uri = webkit_web_view_get_uri (web_view); break; case WEBKIT_LOAD_FINISHED: // Load finished, we can now stop the spinner break; } }

Default handler:

The default handler is called after the handlers added via g_signal_connect().
