This is the type of a callback function that gets set for a module
callback.
</p>
<p>
When the callback is invoked, the user function is called with an
<em class="parameter"><code>in</code></em> argument, the exact type of which depends on the specific
callback. It is generally a pointer to a struct with several fields
that provide information to the callback.
</p>
<p>
The <em class="parameter"><code>out</code></em> argument is used to return a value from the
callback. Once again the exact type depends on the specific
callback. It is generally a pointer to a pre-allocated struct with
several fields that the callback function should fill in before
returning.

<p>
This is the type of a callback function that gets set for an async
module callback.
</p>
<p>
Such callbacks are useful when you are using the API and want
callbacks to be handled from the main thread, for instance if they
need to put up a dialog.
</p>
<p>
Like a <a class="link" href="gnome-vfs-2.0-gnome-vfs-module-callback.html#GnomeVFSModuleCallback" title="GnomeVFSModuleCallback ()"><code class="function">GnomeVFSModuleCallback()</code></a>, an async callback has <em class="parameter"><code>in</code></em> and <em class="parameter"><code>out</code></em>
arguments for passing data into and out of the callback. However,
an async callback does not need to fill in the <em class="parameter"><code>out</code></em> argument before
returning. Instead, it can arrange to have the work done from a
callback on the main loop, from another thread, etc. The <em class="parameter"><code>response</code></em>
function should be called by whatever code finishes the work of the
callback with <em class="parameter"><code>response_data</code></em> as an argument once the <em class="parameter"><code>out</code></em> argument
is filled in and the callback is done.
</p>
<p>
The <em class="parameter"><code>in</code></em> and <em class="parameter"><code>out</code></em> arguments are guaranteed to remain valid until the
<em class="parameter"><code>response</code></em> function is called.

Set the default async callback for <em class="parameter"><code>callback_name</code></em> to

The default value is shared for all threads, but setting it is
thread-safe.
