Usage

gFileReplaceContentsAsync(object, contents, length, etag, make.backup, 
    flags = "G_FILE_CREATE_NONE", cancellable = NULL, callback, 
    user.data = NULL)

Arguments

`object`	input `GFile`.
`contents`	string of contents to replace the file with.
`length`	the length of `contents` in bytes.
`etag`	a new entity tag for the `file`, or `NULL`
`make.backup`	`TRUE` if a backup should be created.
`flags`	a set of `GFileCreateFlags`.
`cancellable`	optional `GCancellable` object, `NULL` to ignore.
`callback`	a `GAsyncReadyCallback` to call when the request is satisfied
`user.data`	the data to pass to callback function

Details

When this operation has completed, callback will be called with user.user data, and the operation can be finalized with gFileReplaceContentsFinish.

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.

If make.backup is TRUE, this function will attempt to make a backup of file.
