### Class

# Gio Vfs

since: 2.0

#### Description

    class Gio.Vfs : GObject.Object
    {
      /* No available fields */
    }

Entry point for using GIO functionality.

Available since: 2.0

#### Ancestors

- GObject

#### Functions

###### g_vfs_get_default

Gets the default `GVfs` for the system.

since: 2.0

###### g_vfs_get_local

Gets the local `GVfs` for the system.

since: 2.0

#### Instance methods

###### g_vfs_get_file_for_path

Gets a `GFile` for `path`.

since: 2.0

###### g_vfs_get_file_for_uri

Gets a `GFile` for `uri`.

since: 2.0

###### g_vfs_get_supported_uri_schemes

Gets a list of URI schemes supported by `vfs`.

since: 2.0

###### g_vfs_is_active

Checks if the VFS is active.

since: 2.0

###### g_vfs_parse_name

This operation never fails, but the returned object might not support any I/O operations if the `parse_name` cannot be parsed by the `GVfs` module.

since: 2.0

###### g_vfs_register_uri_scheme

Registers `uri_func` and `parse_name_func` as the `GFile` URI and parse name lookup functions for URIs with a scheme matching `scheme`. Note that `scheme` is registered only within the running application, as opposed to desktop-wide as it happens with GVfs backends.

since: 2.50

###### g_vfs_unregister_uri_scheme

Unregisters the URI handler for `scheme` previously registered with g_vfs_register_uri_scheme().

since: 2.50

#### Signals

##### Signals inherited from GObject (1)

###### GObject::notify

The notify signal is emitted on an object when one of its properties has its value set through g_object_set_property(), g_object_set(), et al.
