Vte.Terminal.write_contents_sync

### Method

# Vte Terminalwrite_contents_sync

#### Declaration [src]

    gboolean
    vte_terminal_write_contents_sync (
      VteTerminal* terminal,
      GOutputStream* stream,
      VteWriteFlags flags,
      GCancellable* cancellable,
      GError** error
    )

#### Description [src]

Write contents of the current contents of `terminal` (including any scrollback history) to `stream` according to `flags`.

If `cancellable` is not `NULL`, then the operation can be cancelled by triggering the cancellable object from another thread. If the operation was cancelled, the error `G_IO_ERROR_CANCELLED` will be returned in `error`.

This is a synchronous operation and will make the widget (and input processing) during the write operation, which may take a long time depending on scrollback history and `stream` availability for writing.

#### Parameters

`stream` | `GOutputStream`
| A `GOutputStream` to write to.
| The data is owned by the caller of the function.
`flags` | `VteWriteFlags`
| A set of `VteWriteFlags`.
`cancellable` | `GCancellable`
| A `GCancellable` object, or `NULL`.
| The argument can be `NULL`.
| The data is owned by the caller of the function.
`error` | `GError **`
| The return location for a `GError*`, or `NULL`.

#### Return value

Returns: | `gboolean`
| `TRUE` on success, `FALSE` if there was an error.
