Details

The attribute value is a string that specifies the file attributes that should be gathered.

The wildcard "*" means all attributes, and a wildcard like "standard::*" means all attributes in the standard namespace. An example attribute query be "standard::*,owner::user". The standard attributes are available as defines, like G_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_STANDARD_NAME.
