OutputMessage
===================================================================

.. currentmodule:: gi.repository.Gio


.. versionadded:: 2.44




.. class:: OutputMessage(*args, **kwargs)
   :no-contents-entry:






Structure used for scatter/gather data output when sending multiple
messages or packets in one go. You generally pass in an array of
:obj:`~gi.repository.Gio.OutputVector` and the operation will use all the buffers as if they
were one buffer.

If ``address`` is :const:`None` then the message is sent to the default receiver
(as previously set by :func:`~gi.repository.Gio.Socket.connect`).
