FormatSizeFlags#

class FormatSizeFlags#

Flags to modify the format of the string returned by format_size_full().

Fields#

class FormatSizeFlags
BITS#

Set the size as a quantity in bits, rather than bytes, and return units in bits. For example, ‘Mbit’ rather than ‘MB’.

DEFAULT#

Behave the same as format_size()

IEC_UNITS#

Use IEC (base 1024) units with “KiB”-style suffixes. IEC units should only be used for reporting things with a strong “power of 2” basis, like RAM sizes or RAID stripe sizes. Network and storage sizes should be reported in the normal SI units.

LONG_FORMAT#

Include the exact number of bytes as part of the returned string. For example, “45.6 kB (45,612 bytes)”.

ONLY_UNIT#

Return only unit, without value; this should not be used together with G_FORMAT_SIZE_LONG_FORMAT nor G_FORMAT_SIZE_ONLY_VALUE. Since: 2.74

ONLY_VALUE#

Return only value, without unit; this should not be used together with G_FORMAT_SIZE_LONG_FORMAT nor G_FORMAT_SIZE_ONLY_UNIT. Since: 2.74
