<title>Description</title>
<para>
<link linkend="class-giofileoutputstream"><classname>gio.FileOutputStream</classname></link>
provides output streams that write their content to a file.
</para>
<para>
<link linkend="class-giofileoutputstream"><classname>gio.FileOutputStream</classname></link>
implements <link linkend="class-gioseekable"><classname>gio.Seekable</classname></link>,
which allows the output stream to jump to arbitrary positions in the file and to truncate
the file, provided the filesystem of the file supports these operations. In addition to the
generic gio.Seekable. API,
<link linkend="class-giofileoutputstream"><classname>gio.FileOutputStream</classname></link>
has its own API for seeking and positioning. To find the position of a file output stream, use
<methodname><link linkend="method-gioseekable--tell">gio.Seekable.tell</link></methodname>().
To find out if a file output stream supports seeking, use
<methodname><link linkend="method-gioseekable--can_seek">gio.Seekable.can_seek</link></methodname>().
To position a file output stream, use
<methodname><link linkend="method-gioseekable--seek">gio.Seekable.seek</link></methodname>().
To find out if a file output stream supports truncating, use
<methodname><link linkend="method-gioseekable--can_truncate">gio.FileOutputStream.can_truncate</link></methodname>().
To truncate a file output stream, use
<methodname><link linkend="method-gioseekable--truncate">gio.Seekable.truncate</link></methodname>().

The <methodname>get_etag</methodname>() method gets the entity tag
for the file when it has been written. This must be called after the
stream has been written and closed, as the etag can change while writing.

<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-giofileoutputstream--query-info-async">gio.FileOutputStream.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>
<para>
Can fail if the stream was already closed (with error being set to gio.ERROR_CLOSED),
the stream has pending operations (with error being set to gio.ERROR_PENDING), or
if querying info is not supported for the stream's interface (with error being set to
gio.ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED). In all cases of failure, NULL will be returned.
</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, and <literal>None</literal> will be returned.

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-giofileoutputstream--query-info-finish">gio.FileOutputStream.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-giofileoutputstream--query-info">gio.FileOutputStream.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
