This fits better with the convention in the rest of GLib where arbitrary
8-bit values are represented as guint8, avoiding the potential confusing
of a name which references ‘char’s.
This is not an API break, as both guint8 and guchar are unconditionally
typedeffed to unsigned char.

There seems to be little point in substituting the version number into
README (using autotools). Rename it to README.md and distribute that
verbatim (with autotools and Meson) instead.
Autotools still requires that README exists, so leave a stub README file
in place which redirects people to README.md. This can be dropped when
we drop autotools support.

GVfs utils used to have bash completion, which was pretty useful. However,
it hasn't been ported to gio tool unfortunately. GLib provides completion
for various utils already, so it would be nice to provide completion also
for gio tool. I've updated old bash completion code and merged with some
my old unmerged fixes.
The gvfs completion used "gvfs-ls --show-completions" helper. This mentioned
option hasn't been obviously ported to "gio list" and the proposed completion
doesn't add this option in "gio list" to not pollute the codes, but maybe it
is a bit slower as consequence.
The proposed bash completion suggests subcommands, uris and paths including
the remote mounts. It contains some workarounds, especially because of proper
handling of paths with colons and other special chars (like spaces)...
Since it’s deprecated in favour of positional arguments, including it in
the help output is confusing.

These generate basic .c and .h files containing the GDBusInterfaceInfo
for a D-Bus introspection XML file, but no other code (no skeletons,
proxies, GObjects, etc.).
This is useful for projects who want to describe their D-Bus interfaces
using introspection XML, but who wish to implement the interfaces
manually (for various reasons, typically because the skeletons generated
by gdbus-codegen are too simplistic and limiting). Previously, these
projects would have had to write the GDBusInterfaceInfo manually, which
is painstaking and error-prone.
The new --interface-info-[body|header] options are very similar to
--[body|header], but mutually exclusive with them.

Recursive annotations do seem to be supported, so we should support them
properly in the type system representation. This currently introduces no
behavioural changes, but will be used in upcoming commits.

People do (and should) use g_str_equal() for string comparisons outside
of hash tables, because it’s easier to read than
`strcmp (str1, str2) == 0`. That should not be discouraged.
However, we should still be careful to point out that g_str_equal() is
not NULL-safe, and g_strcmp0() is.

We don’t strictly require this, but given that our CI runs it, we
essentially never test with 0.46.0, so it might as well be broken.

It's been 4 years and 8 development cycles since we introduced
G_ADD_PRIVATE and offset-based private data access. It is now
time to finally deprecate the old mechanism.
Closes: #699
This is to avoid race between dispose() being called on the
GFdoNotificationBackend instance, and any pending operations which are
still waiting on a D-Bus reply when it’s disposed.
(thx to Philip Withnall for pointing that out)

Previously, calling:
g_dbus_is_supported_address ("some-imaginary-transport:", NULL)
correctly returned FALSE; but calling:
g_dbus_is_supported_address ("some-imaginary-transport:", &error)
crashed with:
GLib-GIO:ERROR:../gio/gdbusaddress.c:434:g_dbus_is_supported_address:
assertion failed: (ret || (!ret && (error == NULL || *error != NULL)))
This was because, if the address component did not start with a known
transport, no error was set. Fix this, reusing an error string used by
the corresponding else branch in g_dbus_address_connect(), and adjust
the test to pass both NULL and non-NULL GError **s to this function in
every test case. This case:
g_assert (!g_dbus_is_supported_address ("some-imaginary-transport:foo=bar;unix:path=/this/is/valid", NULL));
would have caught this bug with a non-NULL GError **.
The way things were before: a FreedesktopNotification struct is
allocated before the dbus call, and this same struct is possibly re-used
for other dbus calls. If the server becomes unavailable, the callback
will be invoked after the call times out, which leaves a long time where
other dbus calls can happen, re-using the same FreedesktopNotification
as user data. When the first call times out, the callback is invoked,
and the user data is freed. Subsequent calls that used the same user
data will time out later on, and try to free a pointer that was already
freed, hence segfaults.
This bug can be reproduced in Cinnamon 3.6.7, as mentioned in:
<https://github.com/linuxmint/Cinnamon/issues/7491>
This commit fixes that by always allocating a new
FreedesktopNotification before invoking dbus_call(), ensuring that the
callback always have a valid user data.

A slightly modified patch originally written by Morten Welinder
<terra@gnome.org> to make the error codes returned by g_spawn_*()
functions more specific when on Windows. They are already this specific
on Linux.
Add a unit test for the ENOENT case.

The error number was saved after some g_debug() and g_free() calls, in
various places, which meant it could have been overwritten since the
error we care about happened.

Use a GOnce to make sure we only warn about notifications not being

This allows test calls to produce output with \n
line separators on Windows, instead of \r\n.
Reduces the number of ifdefs, since all checks
can be done against one template on all platforms.
