/** Provides a base class for implementing asynchronous function results.
* Asynchronous operations are broken up into two separate operations which are chained together by a SlotAsyncReady.
* To begin an asynchronous operation, provide a SlotAsyncReady to the asynchronous function. This callback will be triggered
* when the operation has completed, and will be passed an AsyncResult instance filled with the details of the operation's success or
* failure, the object the asynchronous function was started for and any error codes returned. The asynchronous callback function is then
* expected to call the corresponding "_finish()" function with the object the function was called for, and the AsyncResult instance,
* and optionally, an error to grab any error conditions that may have occurred.
*
* The purpose of the "_finish()" function is to take the generic result of type AsyncResult and return the specific result that the operation
* in question yields (e.g. a FileEnumerator for an "enumerate children" operation). If the result or error status of the operation is not needed,
* there is no need to call the "_finish()" function and GIO will take care of cleaning up the result and error information after the
* SlotAsyncReady returns. You may also store the AsyncResult and call "_finish()" later.
*
* Example of a typical asynchronous operation flow:
* @code
* void _theoretical_frobnitz_async(const Glib::RefPtr<Theoretical>& t,
* const SlotAsyncReady& slot);
*
* gboolean _theoretical_frobnitz_finish(const Glib::RefPtr<Theoretical>& t,
* const Glib::RefPtr<AsyncResult>& result);
*
* static void
* on_frobnitz_result(Glib::RefPtr<AsyncResult>& result)
* {
*
* Glib::RefPtr<Glib::Object> source_object = result->get_source_object();
* bool success = _theoretical_frobnitz_finish(source_object, res);
*
* if (success)
* std::cout << "Hurray" << std::endl;
* else
* std::cout << "Uh oh!" << std::endl;
*
* ...
* }
*
* int main (int argc, void *argv[])
* {
* ...
*
* _theoretical_frobnitz_async (theoretical_data,
* sigc::ptr_fun(&on_frobnitz_result) );
*
* ...
* }
* @endcode
*
* The async function could also take an optional Glib::Cancellable object, allowing the calling function to cancel the asynchronous operation.
*
* The callback for an asynchronous operation is called only once, and is always called, even in the case of a cancelled operation.
* On cancellation the result is a ERROR_CANCELLED error.
*
* Some ascynchronous operations are implemented using synchronous calls. These are run in a separate GThread, but otherwise they are sent
* to the Main Event Loop and processed in an idle function. So, if you truly need asynchronous operations, make sure to initialize GThread.
