<title>Description</title>
<para>
<link linkend="class-giofileinputstream"><classname>gio.FileInputStream</classname></link>
provides input streams that take their content from a file.
</para>
<para>
<link linkend="class-giofileinputstream"><classname>gio.FileInputStream</classname></link>
implements <link linkend="class-gioseekable"><classname>gio.Seekable</classname></link>,
which allows the input stream to jump to arbitrary positions in the file, provided the filesystem
of the file allows it. In addition to the generic g_seekable_ API,
<link linkend="class-giofileinputstream"><classname>gio.FileInputStream</classname></link>
has its own API for seeking and positioning. To find the position of a file input stream, use
<methodname><link linkend="method-gioseekable--tell">gio.Seekable.tell</link></methodname>().
To find out if a file input stream supports seeking, use
<methodname><link linkend="method-gioseekable--can_seek">gio.Seekable.can_seek</link></methodname>().
To position a file input stream, use
<methodname><link linkend="method-gioseekable--seek">gio.Seekable.seek</link></methodname>().

<para>
The <methodname>query_info</methodname>() method queries a file input stream
the given attributes. This function blocks while querying the stream.
For the asynchronous (non-blocking) version of this function, see
<methodname><link linkend="method-giofileinputstream--query-info-async">gio.FileInputStream.query_info_async</link></methodname>().
While the stream is blocked, the stream will set the pending flag internally,
and any other operations on the stream will fail with gio.ERROR_PENDING.

<para>
The <methodname>query_info_async</methodname>() method queries the stream
information asynchronously. When the operation is finished callback will be
called. You can then call
<methodname><link linkend="method-giofileinputstream--query-info-finish">gio.FileInputStream.query_info_finish</link></methodname>()
to get the result of the operation.
</para>
<para>
For the synchronous version of this function, see
<methodname><link linkend="method-giofileinputstream--query-info">gio.FileInputStream.query_info</link></methodname>().
</para>
<para>
If cancellable is not <literal>None</literal>, then the operation can be cancelled
by triggering the cancellable object from another thread. If the operation was
cancelled, the error gio.ERROR_CANCELLED will be set
