Perform a substantial cleanup of the build system with respect to
building and installing testcases.
First, Makefile.decl has been renamed glib.mk and substantially
expanded. We intend to add more stuff here in the future, like canned
rules for mkenums, marshallers, resources, etc.
By default, tests are no longer compiled as part of 'make'. They will
be built when 'make check' is run. The old behaviour can be obtained
with --enable-always-build-tests.
--disable-modular-tests is gone (because tests are no longer built by
default). There is no longer any way to cause 'make check' to be a
no-op, but that's not very useful anyway.
A new glibtests.m4 file is introduced. Along with glib.mk, this
provides for consistent handling of --enable-installed-tests and
--enable-always-build-tests (mentioned above).
Port our various test-installing Makefiles to the new framework.
This patch substantially improves the situation in the toplevel tests/
directory. Things are now somewhat under control there. There were
some tests being built that weren't even being run and we run those now.
The long-running GObject performance tests in this directory have been
removed from 'make check' because they take too long.
As an experiment, 'make check' now runs the testcases on win32 builds,
by default. We can't run them under gtester (since it uses a pipe to
communicate with the subprocess) so just toss them in TESTS. Most of
them are passing on win32.
Things are not quite done here, but this patch is already a substantial
improvement. More to come.
This should be the last users that need to be ported.
For some of the oldschool non-gtester-ified tests, we call g_test_init()
from main() because it is necessary in order to use
g_test_build_filename().
Since this feature is so utterly automake-centric, we may as well be
using the same terminology as automake itself (ie: although it's
BUILT_SOURCES, it's DIST_EXTRA, not DISTED).
Also add some comments to the enum explaining that these terms are
really corresponding directly to the automake terms.

Both g_[file|bytes]_icon_load() leave the `type' out parameter

The test /gdbus/connection/large_message waits for a dbus name to appear.
The dbus name is created by a another process executed in the background.
If for some reason this fails, the test will likely wait forever.
This will avoid this situation by making the test fail if the dbus service
has not appeared after 10 seconds.

Back in the far-off twentieth century, it was normal on unix
workstations for U+0060 GRAVE ACCENT to be drawn as "‛" and for U+0027
APOSTROPHE to be drawn as "’". This led to the convention of using
them as poor-man's ‛smart quotes’ in ASCII-only text.
However, "'" is now universally drawn as a vertical line, and "`" at a
45-degree angle, making them an `odd couple' when used together.
Unfortunately, there are lots of very old strings in glib, and also
lots of new strings in which people have kept up the old tradition,
perhaps entirely unaware that it used to not look stupid.
Fix this by just using 'dumb quotes' everywhere.

It tries to run glib-compile-schemas and glib-mkenums, which
we won't have in the runtime tree.
Anyways it's kind of a dumb test since the best test for
compilation tools is...compiling things, which we already
do frequently.
Although none of the in-tree GSocketConnectable types need it, other
types (like SoupAddress) may find it useful to be able to pass a URI
and a default-port to GProxyAddressEnumerator separately (the same way
you can with GNetworkAddress). So add a default-port property.

GUnixSocketAddress has some very strange logic for interpreting its

and
g_object_new (G_TYPE_UNIX_SOCKET_ADDRESS,

even though the default value for "abstract" is already FALSE.

merely setting a property to its default value.

This function takes a GIcon, serialises it and sets the resulting
GVariant as the "icon" attribute on the menu item. We will need to add
a patch to Gtk to actually consume this icon.
Also add G_MENU_ATTRIBUTE_ICON.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=688820
Add support for serialising a GIcon to a GVariant and deserialising the
result back to a GIcon.
This solves a number of problems suffered by the existing to_string()
API, primarily these:
- not forcing the icon to be a utf8 string means that we can
efficiently encode a PNG (ie: just give the array of bytes)
- there is no need to ensure that proper types are loaded before using
the deserialisation interface. 'Foreign' icon types will probably
emit a serialised format the deserialises to a GBytesIcon.
We additionally clearly document what is required for being a consumer
or implementation of #GIcon.
Further patches will be required to GdkPixbuf and GVfsIcon to bring
their implementations in line with the new rules (essentially: introduce
implementations of the new serialize() API).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=688820
GBytesIcon is an icon that has a GBytes inside of it where the GBytes
contains some sort of encoded image in a widely-recognised file format.
Ideally this will be a PNG.
It implements GLoadableIcon, so GTK will already understand how to use
it, but we will add another patch there to make things more efficient.

In the *_async_thread() functions, call the corresponding synchronous

code is simpler).

This feature is intended for clients that want to signal a desktop shell
their busy state, for instance because a long-running operation is
pending.
The API works in a similar way to g_application_hold and
g_application_release: applications can call g_application_mark_busy()
to increase a counter that will keep the application marked as busy
until the counter reaches zero again.
The busy state is exported read-only on the org.gtk.Application interface
for clients to use.

We need to close the stream *before* applying the file modes, because
g_file_replace() allocates a temporary file. At the moment we're
applying the modes to the extant file, then immediately rename()ing
over it with the default perms.
This regressed with commit 166766a89f.
The real fix here is to have g_file_create_with_info() so that we can
atomically create a file with the permissions we want.

_g_dbus_method_invocation_new is said to allow method_info == NULL,
but will crash inside g_dbus_method_info_ref when the method_info
really is NULL, because g_dbus_method_info_ref does not allow NULL as
parameter. Fixed by checking for NULL in _g_dbus_method_invocation_new
itself.
The leak itself happens because _g_dbus_method_invocation_new stores a
new reference to the method_info without also unreferencing it. Fixed
by adding the missing unref, protected by an if because the pointer
may be NULL.

We were using PATH_MAX to size a static array for reading lines from
the .hidden file. Some platforms (Hurd) don't declare a PATH_MAX.
Switch to using g_file_get_contents() and g_str_split('\n') instead.
Also take the time to clean up a bit with a switch to using a 'set mode'
GHashTable (since this code was originally written before we had those).

Commit f641699 (for bug 675333) introduced a check whether the Exec= program in
a .desktop actually exists. This broke the /appinfo/mime/* test cases which use
executable names like "my_app".
Use real ones instead (like "echo" and "sleep"), and add a new
/appinfo/mime/ignore-nonexisting test case which verifies that
g_desktop_app_info_new() indeed ignores nonexisting executables.

The documentation was suggesting that using G_APPLICATION_IS_SERVICE
would automatically set an inactivity timeout (ie: app stays around for
a while after the use count drops to zero).
In reality, it only adds an initial 10 second wait for the first
activation message to arrive after which it uses the normal inactivity
timeout mechanism.
Implement the g_network_monitor_can_reach_async() rather than falling
back to the default implementation, which calls the sync version (not
in a thread).

Enumerate the GSocketConnectable before checking for a default route.

If the resolver reloads (ie, if /etc/resolv.conf changes),
GNetworkAddress needs to re-resolve its addresses the next time it's

GNetworkAddress for them for a long time.

While compiling, libtool will say that undefined symbols are not allowed, and
will refuse to make you a dll. This is only one line, easy to miss. And it
doesn't prevent `make' from completing successfully.
The code this patch adds is from other Makefile.am files that use
$(no_undefined). It's absence in gio is, most likely, an oversight.

The flowinfo and scope_id fields of struct sockaddr_in6 are in host
byte order, but the code previously assumed they were in network byte
order. Fix that.
This is an ABI-breaking change (since before you would have had to use
g_ntohl() and g_htonl() with them to get the correct values, and now
that would give the wrong values), but the previous behavior was
clearly wrong, and no one ever reported it, so it is likely that no

There are two benefits to this:
1) We can centralize any operating system specific knowledge of
close-vs-EINTR handling. For example, while on Linux we should never
retry, if someone cared enough later about HP-UX, they could come by
and change this one spot.
2) For places that do care about the return value and want to provide
the caller with a GError, this function makes it convenient to do so.
Note that gspawn.c had an incorrect EINTR loop-retry around close().

Ok, this function was just an awful mess before. Now the problem
domain is not trivial, and I won't claim this new code is *beautiful*,

Get rid of the complicated default module detection code in
GLocalFileMonitor and GLocalDirectoryMonitor and use the new

_gio_module_get_default() is a very convenient function for modules
implementing a singleton -- it finds the default module by priority
subject to override by a given environment variable name, instantiates
it, and caches the instance for future calls. It also has the ability
to query instances for being 'active' using a callback.
It doesn't work very well for non-singletons (like file monitors).
Add a new function _gio_module_get_default_type() that skips the
instantiation, returning the GType instead. As a replacement for the
'active' callback, a vtable offset can be given for a virtual function
to use to query if a particular backend is supported.

We have various sub directories in glib/ and gio/ (eg: inotify, gnulib,
pcre, xdgmime, etc.) that build convenience libraries that are then
included into libglib and libgio. The files in these directories need
to be built with the same visibility policy as the files in the first
level directories, so add CFLAGS for them all.
This wasn't a problem when the visibility flags were set directly in
CFLAGS but then we had to deal with some modules that we built that we
explicitly wanted to export symbols from.
For now, we can keep things the way they are because it's less hacky and
although it's a theoretical hazard to forget these CFLAGS, we rarely add
new subdirectories to the build.
Before this commit, the only difference between the expected and actual
ABI were the addition of _init and _fini symbols in each module (now
that regexp-based export control is not catching those).
Add read_async() and skip_async() tests to buffered-input-stream.
Fix and re-enable filter-streams's existing close_async() tests, and
add read_async(), skip_async(), and write_async() tests as well. Also,
redo the tests to use dummy GFilterInputStream and GFilterOutputStream
subclasses rather than GBufferedInput/OutputStream, so that we're
testing the base filter stream implementations of everything (since
the buffered stream overrides are already getting tested in the
buffered-input-stream and buffered-output-stream tests anyway).
Add a skip_async() test to unix-streams. (This one would crash without
the bugfix in the previous commit.)
skip_callback_wrapper expect the user_data (callback_data)
to be the task holding the task_data, not the task_data
itself.
Otherwise the task_data is cast as GTask and then task_data
is extracted from this bogus task.

We only want to control the default visibility for our five main
installable libraries: libglib, libgthread, libgmodule, libgobject,
libgio. We should therefore only set -fvisibility=hidden when building
those.
Use a separate substitution variable for this purpose.
Using CFLAGS directly leads to some modules built in testcases not
exporting their symbols (and then the tests fail). It also affects the
fam file monitoring module.
Colin had originally done it this way in his visibility patch series but
I failed to understand why so I didn't copy it. Now I do.
Also: revert changes made to two testcases in an attempt to work around

Add an #ifdef G_OS_UNIX around the GLIB_AVAILABLE_IN_ALL annotation on
the _get_type() functions for GLocal{File,Directory}Monitor.
These symbols are in private header files and are only exported so that
the in-tree file monitoring modules can subclass. This is only needed
on UNIX and was therefore never part of the public ABI on Windows.
Caught by Dieter Verfaillie.
One of our testcases builds a small giomodule for testing the loading of
modules containing resources. Unfortunately, this module gets built
using the same CFLAGS as the rest of GLib, including the visibility
flags (defaulting to hidden).
Use "config.h" to get a declaration of _GLIB_EXTERN that will export
symbols properly and use it to annotate the necessary APIs.
The kqueue file monitoring backend was misusing G_GNUC_INTERNAL for want
of 'static' in a couple of places and also using it to declare a lock
that was never used at all.
Fix those up.
With visibility now under the control of __declspec(dllexport) we no
longer need to build .def files or use them for building our various
.dll files.
.def files used to be installed (even though it is only really useful
when creating the .dll or .lib file). Don't do that anymore either.
The Makefiles still contain rules to create a .lib file for use with
Visual Studio and these rules require .def files. There are special
requirements to using these rules (like having installed and setup
Microsoft tools for use during the build) and therefore the problem of
creating a .def file for use with them is left open to anyone willing to
make the effort. Many options are available depending on which
toolchain is in use (dlltool, pexport, gendef, dumpbin.exe, just to name
a few).
If we can find a free tool for creating .lib files in the future, we
should probably revisit this issue and add proper support back to our
build system.
