Signal
WebKit2WebView::load-changed
unstable since: 4.0
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 with
WEBKIT_LOAD_FINISHED.
If a redirection is received from the server, this signal is emitted
with WEBKIT_LOAD_REDIRECTED after the initial emission with
WEBKIT_LOAD_STARTED and before WEBKIT_LOAD_COMMITTED.
When the page content starts arriving the signal is emitted with
WEBKIT_LOAD_COMMITTED event.
You can handle this signal and use a switch to track any ongoing load operation.
