## Description

Converter input stream implements GInputStream and allows conversion of data of various types during reading.

## Details

### GConverterInputStream

    typedef struct _GConverterInputStream GConverterInputStream;

An implementation of GFilterInputStream that allows data conversion.

### g_converter_input_stream_new ()

    GInputStream *      g_converter_input_stream_new        (GInputStream *base_stream,
                                                             GConverter *converter);

Creates a new converter input stream for the `base_stream`.

`base_stream` : | a GInputStream
`converter` : | a GConverter
Returns : | a new GInputStream.

### g_converter_input_stream_get_converter ()

    GConverter *        g_converter_input_stream_get_converter
                                                            (GConverterInputStream *converter_stream);

Gets the GConverter that is used by `converter_stream`.

`converter_stream` : | a GConverterInputStream
Returns : | the converter of the converter input stream

Since 2.24

## Property Details

### The `"converter"` property

      "converter"                GConverter*           : Read / Write / Construct Only
