This reverts commit 756b424cce.
The freedesktop SDK, which is used by gnome-build-meta, only has Meson
0.63. Bumping GLib’s Meson dependency to 0.64 means that, at the moment,
GLib is not buildable in gnome-build-meta and hence can’t be tested in
nightly pipelines against other projects, etc.
That’s bad for testing GLib.
It’s arguably bad that we’re restricted to using an older version of
Meson than shipped by Debian Testing, but that’s a separate discussion
to be had.
Revert the Meson 0.64 dependency until the freedesktop SDK ships Meson ≥
0.64. This also means reverting the simplifications to use of
`gnome.mkenum_simple()`.
See https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/merge_requests/3077#note_1601064
Meson now uses find_program() to get glib-mkenum from glib instead of
from system. That was already fixed at least in >=0.60 which is our
current minimum requirement.
Otherwise this test will succeed at build-time, but will fail when run
as an as-installed test via ginsttest-runner.

This can be used to mark entire types as deprecated,
and trigger a warning when they are instantiated
and `G_ENABLE_DIAGNOSTIC=1` is set in the environment.
There's currently no convenient macros for defining
types with the new flag, but you can do:
```c
_G_DEFINE_TYPE_EXTENDED_BEGIN (GtkAppChooserWidget,
gtk_app_chooser_widget,
GTK_TYPE_WIDGET,
G_TYPE_FLAG_DEPRECATED)
...
_G_DEFINE_TYPE_EXTENDED_END ()
```

This reverts commit 476e33c3f3.
We’ve decided to remove `G_OS_DARWIN` in favour of recommending people
use `__APPLE__` instead. As per the discussion on #2802 and linked
issues,
* Adding a new define shifts the complexity from “which of these
platform-provided defines do I use” to “which platform-provided
defines does G_OS_DARWIN use”
* There should ideally be no cases where a user of GLib has to use
their own platform-specific code, since GLib should be providing
appropriate abstractions
* Providing a single `G_OS_DARWIN` to cover all Apple products (macOS
and iOS) hides the complexity of what the user is actually testing:
are they testing for the Mach kernel, the Carbon and/or Cocoa user
space toolkits, macOS vs iOS vs tvOS, etc

Some of GLib's unit tests are under an apparently GLib-specific
permissive license, vaguely similar to the BSD/MIT family but with the
GPL's lack-of-warranty wording. This is not on SPDX's list of
well-known licenses, so we need to use a custom license name prefixed
with LicenseRef if we want to represent this in SPDX/REUSE syntax.
Most of the newer tests seem to be licensed under LGPL-2.1-or-later
instead.

This allows them to be referenced in other symbols value computation.
In addition, this fixes the automatically assigned value of a public
symbol that is preceded by a private one:
typedef enum {
/*< private >*/
ENUM_VALUE_PRIVATE,
/*< public >*/
ENUM_VALUE_PUBLIC, <--- value is 1, not 0.
} SomeExampleEnum;
Enum symbols can be defined with a value computed from previously
defined enum symbols. The current evaluator does not support this and
requires a literal integer expression.
This commit introduces a C symbol namespace that is filled along
code generation and provided as a local namespace for new symbols
evaluation, effectively allowing definitions such as:
typedef enum {
a = 4;
b = a + 2;
} myenum;
to be successfully processed.
Given that it can be computed using an error-prone strings comparisons it
is better to provide a variable everywhere, so that we don't have the
risk of comparing values that are always false.
We have tests that are failing in some environments, but it's
difficult to handle them because:
- for some environments we just allow all the tests to fail: DANGEROUS
- when we don't allow failures we have flacky tests: A CI pain
So, to avoid this and ensure that:
- New failing tests are tracked in all platforms
- gitlab integration on tests reports is working
- coverage is reported also for failing tests
Add support for `can_fail` keyword on tests that would mark the test as
part of the `failing` test suite.
Not adding the suite directly when defining the tests as this is
definitely simpler and allows to define conditions more clearly (see next
commits).
Now, add a default test setup that does not run the failing and flaky tests
by default (not to bother distributors with testing well-known issues) and
eventually run all the tests in CI:
- Non-flaky tests cannot fail in all platforms
- Failing and Flaky tests can fail
In both cases we save the test reports so that gitlab integration is
preserved.
In principle we could script this so that each max-version.c is compiled
26 times, once per possible MAX_VERSION, but I haven't implemented
that here: just pinning to the oldest possible version is sufficient to
reproduce #2796.
These aren't included in the installed-tests, since they don't really
do anything at runtime (the important thing is that they compile
without warnings).

The function adjusting private struct size to private struct offset
should be `g_type_class_adjust_private_offset`, instead of the
previously misspelled `g_type_class_add_instance_private` in comment.

When collecting varargs, ignore the NOCOPY_CONTENTS
flag for variants. That is what our docs advice for
refcounted types, and it fixes a regression that
was inadvertendly introduced when we stopped doing
some extra GValue copies.

They only indicate whether the value had to be modified to keep it

The usual use of G_DISABLE_CAST_CHECKS is to define it without giving it
a value. The value was never looked at until
f946e45a0c, where I decided it would be
cool to ignore it if defined to 0. But this broke the original usage, so
we need to revert that.
I thought it would be a good idea to look at the value in order to give
applications an off switch for the new behavior, so you could continue
to build optimized builds with cast checks enabled. We could still try
to find a way to do that in the future if desired, e.g. by introducing a
new G_ENABLE_CAST_CHECKS definition. But this doesn't seem especially
important. G_DISABLE_CAST_CHECKS is not documented anyway, so how we
handle cast checks is entirely up to GLib.
For unclear reasons, universal_newlines=True doesn't seem to set the
text encoding correctly. Even if I set only encoding='utf-8', the test
fails. The combination here works for me, \o/.

There is currently no `dllimport` attribute on any of our function,
which prevents MSVC to optimize function calls.
To fix that issue, we need to redeclare all our visibility macros for
each of our libraries, because when compiling e.g. GIO code, we need
dllimport in GLIB headers and dllexport in GIO headers. That means they
cannot use the same GLIB_AVAILABLE_* macro.
Since that's a lot of boilerplate to copy/paste after each version bump,
this MR generate all those macros using a python script.
Also simplify the meson side by using `gnu_symbol_visibility : 'hidden'`
keyword argument instead of passing the cflag manually.
This leaves only API index to add manually into glib-docs.xml when
bumping GLib version. That file cannot be generated because Meson does
not allow passing a buit file to gnome.gtkdoc()'s main_xml kwarg
unfortunately.
Instead of replacing the slice allocator wholesale, we can start phasing
it out by having GTypeInstance use the system allocator on operating
systems where we can assume good performance profiles.
We cannot commit to fully gutting GSlice in the cases where we might
still need it, like the G(S)List allocator and small, similarly-sized
data structures.
The main user of GSlice is still GTypeInstance/GObject, and those have
moved out of the sweet spot of GSlice's performance envelove over the
years, with larger instance sizes and private data.
See: #1079
The validate() vfunc for GParamSpecParam returns FALSE for empty GValue,
which means the is_valid() vfunc should do the same.
This avoids a segfault when calling g_param_value_is_valid() on a
GParamSpecParam.

This goes undiagnosed under normal circumstances, but is a critical
warning (which is fatal by default) under G_ENABLE_DIAGNOSTIC. This is a
programming error, so we should only exercise it under
g_test_undefined(), and only in a test that is intentionally doing this
(as in the previous commit).

This was previously exercised (probably by mistake) in
gobject/tests/type.c, but without making any assertions about what
happened, and the test would fail under G_ENABLE_DIAGNOSTIC if GLib was
compiled with debug enabled.
