In master, it is already possible to build GLib using Visual Studio
using Meson[1] for some time, so we should focus on maintaining only the
Meson build files for building GLib with Visual Studio.
[1]: There are caveats when building with Visual Studio 2008, namely
that one needs to use the mt command to embed the manifests that
are generated with the .exe/DLLs, for all builds, and that in the
case where the compilation hangs on Visual Studio 2008 x64, as a
workaround, should stop the build by terminating all cl.exe tasks
and change the compiler optimization flag from /O2 (full speed) to
/O1 (optimize for size), due to compiler optimization issues.
Change G_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_ACCESS_CAN_TRASH logic to be consistent
with recent g_local_file_trash changes, i.e. set this to FALSE for
locations on system-internal mounts.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/issues/251
New bugs appears periodically in nautilus/gvfs/glib components that not
all trashed files are shown in trash:///. It used to be problem mostly
for "bind mounts" and btrfs subvolumes only. Currently, it is also
problem for nfs, cifs and other filesystems, which have been recently
added by commmit 0d69462f on the list of system internal filesystems.
This happens because the trash backend doesn't monitor files on system
internal mounts. Such behavior is not against the trash-spec, however,
we should be consistent within GNOME.
This behavior has the nice side-effect that it solves issues with hangs
on network filesystems: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/issues/605,
because those are currently on the system internal filesystem list.

This test assumes the subprocess does not print anything else on stdout
other than the dbus address, otherwise g_test_trap_assert_stdout()
fails to match. But if the env running tests has G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=all
then it will also print "PATH=%s".
It's a synonym of G_VOLUME_IDENTIFIER_KIND_UNIX_DEVICE.
It doesn't change anything except not feeling dirty from using a wrongly
prefixed constant for the object type.
See: #182
Help is usually printed from tools if no arguments are given and there
is not default action. However "gio mount" and "gio trash" just silently
return. Let's print "No locations given" error and show help consistently.
"gio help COMMAND" shows some arguments with "..." and some with "…",
which looks weird, e.g.:
$ gio help mount
gio mount [OPTION…] [LOCATION...]
Let's use "…" consitently.
- Compiler checks were failing because it were using C compiler to build
objc code.
- xdgmime is needed on osx too.
- -DGIO_COMPILATION must be passed to objc compiler too.
- gapplication doesn't build on osx, it is excluded in autotools too.
We have to be careful when we use add_project_link_arguments(): All
targets are built using link arguments for the C language, except for
libgio on osx which use the objc language, because it contains some ".m"
source files. See https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/3585.

Those files got renamed to .c to work around an automake issue, but
Meson needs them to have .m extension. Better rename them at build time
in Makefile.am since that's where the workaround is needed.

GVfsUDisks2VolumeMonitor handles x-gvfs-hide/x-gvfs-show mount options
used to overwrite our heuristics whether the mount should be shown, or
hidden. Unfortunately, it works currently only for mounts with
corresponding fstab entries, because the options are read over
g_unix_mount_point_get_options. Let's introduce g_unix_mount_get_options
to allow reading of the options for all sort of mounts (e.g. created
over pam_mount, or manually mounted).

g_desktop_app_info_load_from_keyfile() refuses to load .desktop files
where the executable doesn't exist. Therefore whether or not the .desktop
file added in commit 148995544 is actually considered during tests depends
on /usr/bin/flatpak being installed. This isn't a safe assumption to make,

The executable name can be a useful bit of information to match on in
searches where it differs from the name (for example because the latter
is localised), but will produce surprising results where the real appli-
cation is executed by a shared binary (for example interpretors like

Address this by adding a blacklist of binary names that are ignored

This test will only work on machines which have IPv6 enabled and have a
local IPv6 interface with ID 1. On machines which don’t (such as AWS
servers, which we run CI tests on), the GResolver tests will fail with
G_RESOLVER_ERROR_INVALID. We can’t differentiate this kind of failure
(where we’d want to skip the test) from an actual failure (where we’d
want to fail the test), so the only other option is to drop this
particular test vector. I don’t think it’s a significant loss.

If glib-networking is installed and built with libproxy support, this
test will use it. If a proxy is set in the environment, we might get
correctly told to go through it for certain accesses. However, this isn't
going to work, because the testsuite monkeys with the network monitor to
tell it that all addresses - including the proxy - aren't reachable.
We're trying to check if adding networks to a GNetworkMonitor works in
general. Proxies just get in the way here, so let's use the built in
