A checksum type, e.g. G_CHECKSUM_SHA256.

error

The argument will be left initialized to NULL by the virtual function if there are no errors.

In case of error, the argument will be set to a newly allocated GError; the caller will take ownership of the data, and be responsible for freeing it.

A checksum string, or NULL if the checksum is not available.

The caller of the method takes ownership of the returned data, and is responsible for freeing it.

The value is a NUL terminated UTF-8 string.
