This is a variant of g_file_get_path() which returns a const string to
the caller, rather than transferring ownership.
I've been carrying `gs_file_get_path_cached()` in libgsystem and it
has seen a lot of use in the ostree and flatpak codebases. There are
probably others too.
I think language bindings like Python/Gjs could also use this to avoid
an extra malloc (i.e. we could transparently replace
`g_file_get_path()` with `g_file_peek_path()`.
(Originally by Colin Walters. Tweaked by Philip Withnall to update to
2.56, change the function name and drop the locking.)

gdbus-codegen's options only allow a simultaneous header and source
code generation.
A `--header` and `--body` options have been added along with the
`--output` option which allow separate C header and code
generation.
These options cannot be used in addition to the old options such
as `--generate-c-code`, `--generate-docbook` or
`--output-directory`.
These options have also been added to gdbus-codegen's documentation.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=791015
The `outdir` and `docbook` parameters are passed to the
`DocbookCodeGenerator` constructor, but these parameters are only
used at docbook generation, which is optional.
The parameters have been removed from the class creation and added
to the `generate` method, where they are actually being used.

The class that generated both C header and code has been split into
two classes. These clases are now specialized on creating the header
or the body code.
All parameters that do not belong to each class have also been
deleted, so only the necessary parameters still remain. These also
includes the header and code file descriptors, leaving only the
corresponding file descriptor necessary for each class.

The generation of the C header and code preambles have been split
in order to be able to generate both files separately in the future.
The functions for generating preambles and postambles have also been
renamed following the function names used in the glib-genmarshal
rewrite, so that they stay consistent.

The #pragma once is widely supported preprocessor directive that can

The optparse module is deprecated since version 2.7 and the
development continues with the argparse.
The code has been moved from optparse to argparse when parsing
command-line options. This has also led to the deprecation of the
`--xml-files`, and positional arguments should be used instead.

`glib-genmarshal` and `glib-mkenums` use a `Color` class which
implements a number of print_* methods to print colored messages
to the standard error output.
In order to be consistent with those programs' output,
`gdbus-codegen` has also started using that same class and methods.

On i386, we were seeing that this calculation was producing an incorrect
result, probably because usec was being stored in an 80-bit register
before being written back into a 64-bit float in memory. If we mark the
variables as volatile, they are not stored in registers and we avoid
this bug.
gtk-doc doesn’t support them any more since it was ported to Markdown,
so they end up appearing in the generated documentation, which isn’t
great.
Mostly, they were used to split up things invisibly, which we can do in
other ways.

Because the argument being called "available" and the property being

Also remove the details of what that value means, as it's already

I originally planned to introduce a new property and functions to
replace these, with the same behavior but less-confusing names. But that
might not be the best approach in the long run. Instead, let's just
deprecate them without replacement.
TLS 1.2 intolerance is no longer a thing in the wild, and no known
GTlsBackend supports TLS 1.3 yet. But you might need to use this
property in the future, even though it's deprecated, if your
GTlsBackend has added support for TLS 1.3 and you need to talk to a
server that is TLS 1.3 intolerant.
Independently of all that, these APIs simply no longer do what their
names suggest, so deprecation is sensible regardless.

gpointer* cannot be aliased with arbitrary types. In order to fix
-Wstrict-aliasing=2 warnings with the g_clear_pointer() macro, we need
to cast through char*, which is allowed to alias with anything.
Even if we don’t make GLib strict-aliasing safe, it’s important to
ensure this macro is safe, since it could be used from projects which do
compile with -fstrict-aliasing.

As 'auto' dependency checking has been declared undesirable,
skip checking of optional dependencies where the option
defaults to true, but where the option doesn't make sense for
the operating system we're building for. Example: selinux only
makes sense on Linux, people compiling on Windows or macOS
shouldn't have to specify -Dselinux=false to get glib to build.

Commit 281e3010 narrowed the race between GCancellable::cancelled and
GCancellableSource's finalize(), but did not prevent it: there was
nothing to stop cancellation from occurring after the refcount drops
to 0, but before g_source_unref_internal() bumps it back up to 1 to
run finalize().
GCancellable cannot be expected to detect that situation, because the
only way it has to detect last-unref is finalize(), but in that
situation finalize() hasn't happened yet.
Instead of detecting last-unref, relax the precondition a little
to make it detect finalization: priv is only poisoned (set to NULL)
after the finalize() function has been called, so we can assume that
GCancellable has already seen finalize() by then.
