Having this tool in GLib is a bad idea for a number of reasons:
- experience has shown that the simple file format was a bad idea
- the tool is currently implemented with a hack that would require a
dependency inversion to solve (the tool needs to depend on Python
GVariant bindings)
- the tool itself is unmaintained
It will be moved to the GConf git repository so people can continue to
use it for the purpose of converting GConf schemas.
When no path is provided for the schema, we have call
g_settings_new() instead of g_settings_new_with_path()
passing a NULL path.
This was crashing the tool on start since an assertion was
recently added to g_settings_new_with_path() to refuse NULL.
We can't search for a larger needle inside of a smaller haystack, and
unsigned integer subtraction tends to result in very large numbers
rather than small ones.
Add a check for this case and abort out immediately.
Also add a test case (lifted directly from the docs) that demonstrates
the problem.
Issue discovered and tracked down by Milan Bouchet-Valat
See https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=621838 for the whole
story. The problem was that we ended up reading data from arrays of
arrays when we were just supposed to be aligning the buffers.
Also add a host of debug infrastructure that was needed to find the
root cause. For now it can be turned on only via defining
DEBUG_SERIALIZER. In the future we might want to make it work via
G_DBUS_DEBUG. In a nutshell, the added debug info looks like this

While we are already propagating the error to the user via the
GDBusConnection::disconnected signal (because the only safe thing is
to disconnect the other peer), changes are the user is simply not
listening to this signal.
This should never ever happen unless there's a bug in the
serializaer/deserializer so it's fine to complain via g_warning()
here.

The GType for a GVariant is now a fundamental GType instead of a boxed
one so use the right marshaller.

When asynchronously acquiring the DBus connection, assume a reference to
the proxy object, to avoid destroying it in the middle of the operation.
See https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=621905
Like how we're handling activation, use GVariant for timestamps. To
avoid polluting the GtkApplication API with GVariants, we rename the
GApplication signals to "quit-with-data" and "action-with-data".
GtkApplication will then wrap those as just "quit" and "action".

Allow constructing a GDBusProxy for well-known names as discussed here
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-devel-list/2009-October/msg00075.html
including test cases.
Make it possible to create a GDBusProxy for a GBusType instead of a
GDBusConnection. This requires G_BUS_TYPE_NONE so add that too.
Nuke g_bus_watch_proxy() since one can now more or less use GDBusProxy
for this.
Port gdbus-example-watch-proxy to this new API and include this
example in the GDBusProxy doc page.
Also nuke the GType parameter from the GDBusProxy constructors as
requested here: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=621229
Also update the porting guide and other API docs for this change.
Also fix a bug in the signal dispatching code so each subscriber only
get notified once, not N times, for the same signal. Also add a test
case for this.

The name buffer_availabile was kinda confusing, so its been renamed
to buffer_data_size() to match buffer_data().
Also I added a comment to buffer_ensure_space because its behaviour
wasn't obvious.
When the converter fills the whole buffer without reading all input,
we need to enlarge the buffer. Otherwise we get an assertion failure
for `outbuf_size > 0' in g_converter_convert.

gvdb just dropped the ability to have a separate "options" field. We
now store the options into a GVariant along with the default value.
For now, we use a small shim in GSettingsSchema in order not to touch
too much code. A more complete rewrite will follow.
This represents a change to the schema file format with another likely
to follow. glib-compile-schemas needs to be re-run after installing
this change.

Create a function run_with_application that both ensures the
app is running exactly while the test is running, which most
of the tests use. We start it beforehand, and kill it after.
This avoids having any interdependence between the tests (and
there definitely was before, because we didn't wait for
the process to actually terminate after a kill() call).
Also, open a pipe between the two, and have the child app
monitor that pipe. If it gets closed (e.g. because the parent
died), the child exits. This is the most reliable way to
avoid stale children; before, if we failed an assertion, the
parent would abort, and not run kill().

There was a slight race where we ended up calling into user code if
the user managed to unregister an object (or subtree) in the window
between
- processing the remote call on the worker thread; and
- continuing handling it on the user code thread (via an idle handler)
This patch fixes the problem.

Fix proxy construction for objects with no properties in the case
where G_DBUS_PROXY_FLAGS_DO_NOT_LOAD_PROPERTIES isn't set.
The unfortunate side-effect here is that GDBusProxy can no longer be
used to test for "object existence", e.g. creating a GDBusProxy for
any path and interface will not fail. But that's not really a big
deal, if apps rely on that they are doing something very wrong.

This adds a GApplication object to GIO, which is the core of
an application support class, supporting
- uniqueness
- exporting actions (simple scripting)
- standard actions (quit, activate)
The implementation for Linux uses D-Bus, takes a name on the
session bus, and exports a org.gtk.Application interface.
Implementations for Win32 and OS X are still missing.
The GSettings schema compiler was accepting any string as a path. It is
probably quite a common mistake to suspect that '/apps/foo' is a valid
path name when this will cause all sorts of trouble later. Check for
this case and report the error.
Since #include <gsettingsbackend.h> is a perfectly valid thing for
applications to do, and since we want to include gio headers from
gsettingsbackend.h, we need to effectively disable the #error we would
get from those headers (because we're not coming via gio.h).
We don't want to #include <gio/gio.h> here because this would cause
needless rebuilding of GSettingsBackend, GSettings,
GDelayedSettingsBackend, etc... every time someone changed anything in
any public header.
add GSimplePermission, a trivial const implementation of GPermission
can-request and can-release are always false for this implementation and
the value of 'allowed' is decided at construction.
Add GObject introspection annotations so that the length parameter is
correctly detected for g_variant_new_strv(), g_variant_get_strv() and
g_variant_dup_strv(). Also specify that it can be a NULL pointer in
g_variant_get_strv() and g_variant_dup_strv().
For g_settings_set_strv(), detect that a NULL value is allowed, meaning
empty array.
