From bec6a9a3003d95077ad23c235a9313d79c6a1c4f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chun-wei Fan Date: Mon, 21 Dec 2015 14:54:42 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] g_application_run(): Fix on Windows When Using Bindings As g_win32_get_command_line() calls CommandLineToArgvW() to acquire the arguments passed into a GApplication program, it actually returns the whole command line which is used to invoke the program, including the script interpreter and its flags when a script using GNOME bindings (e.g. PyGObject and so on) is being invoked. The issue here is that g_application_run() would most probably have trouble in the scripts scenario on Windows as it is likely unable to "recognize" the script interpreter, causing such scripts to fail to run. Largely based on the patch by Ray Donnelly . https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=734095 --- gio/gapplication.c | 29 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++- 1 file changed, 28 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/gio/gapplication.c b/gio/gapplication.c index e24ab696e..9947e05fc 100644 --- a/gio/gapplication.c +++ b/gio/gapplication.c @@ -2277,7 +2277,34 @@ g_application_run (GApplication *application, g_return_val_if_fail (!application->priv->must_quit_now, 1); #ifdef G_OS_WIN32 - arguments = g_win32_get_command_line (); + { + gint new_argc = 0; + + arguments = g_win32_get_command_line (); + + /* + * CommandLineToArgvW(), which is called by g_win32_get_command_line(), + * pulls in the whole command line that is used to call the program.
