We don't use # or other forms of links in the section headings.
We also capitalize them and don't put a final period.
This commit corrects several headings to follow these rules.
As it turns out, we have examples of internal functions called
type_name_get_private() in the wild (especially among older libraries),
so we need to use a name for the per-instance private data getter
function that hopefully won't conflict with anything.

We do a bunch of new validity checks for return values in response to
calls on the D-Bus property API but we miss the 'goto out' in one case.
Add it.

Add some type checking for the values returned from async property
handling calls, similar in spirit to the type checking we do for normal
method calls.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=698375
The existing advice in the documentation to "simply" register the
"org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties" interface if you want to handle
properties asynchronously is pretty unreasonable. If you want to handle
this interface you have to deal with all properties for all interfaces
on the path, and you have to do all of the checking for yourself. You
also have to provide your own introspection data.
Introduce a new convention for dealing with properties asynchronously.
If the user provides NULL for their get_property() or set_property()
functions in the vtable and has properties registered then the
properties are sent to the method_call() handler. We get lucky here
that this function takes an "interface_name" parameter that we can set
to "org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties".
We also do the user the favour of setting the GDBusPropertyInfo on the
GDBusMethodInvocation for their convenience (for much the same reasons
as they might want the already-available GDBusMethodInfo).
Add a testcase as well as a bunch of documentation about this new
feature.

Separate the code for validating a method call from the code for
actually scheduling it for dispatch.
This will allow property Get/Set/GetAll calls to be dispatched to the
method_call handler without duplicating a lot of code.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=698375
We presently do a lot of checks on property sets (signature check,
correct interface, property exists, etc.) from the worker thread before
dispatching the call to the user's thread. The typecheck, however, is
saved until just before calling the user's vfunc, in their thread.
My best guess is that this was done to save having to unpack the value
from the tuple twice (since we don't unpack it until we're just about
the call the user).
This patch moves the check to the same place as all of the other checks.
The purpose of this change is to allow for sharing this check with the
(soon-to-be-introduced) case of handing property sets from
method_call().
This change has a minor side effect: error messages generated by sending
invalid values to property sets are no longer guaranteed to be correctly
ordered with respect to the void returns from successful property sets.
They will instead be correctly ordered with respect to the other error
messages.

When parsing an address, we need to re-set "len" between IPv4 and
IPv6, since WSAStringToAddress() might set it to sizeof(struct sin_addr)
when trying to parse the string as IPv4, even if it fails. Also, we
need to make sure to not pass strings to WSAStringToAddress() that it
will accept but that we don't want it to.
When stringifying an address, we need to clear the sockaddr before
filling it in, so we don't accidentally end up with an unwanted
scope_id or the like.

Previously, g_file_copy() would (on Unix) create files with the
default mode of 644. For applications which might at user request
copy arbitrary private files such as ~/.ssh or /etc/shadow, a
world-readable copy would be temporarily exposed.
This patch is suboptimal in that it *only* fixes g_file_copy()
for the case where both source and destination are instances of
GLocalFile on Unix.
The reason for this is that the public GFile APIs for creating files
allow very limited control over the access permissions for the created
file; one can either say a file is "private" or not. Fixing
this by adding e.g. g_file_create_with_attributes() would make sense,
except this would entail 8 new API calls for all the variants of
_create(), _create_async(), _replace(), _replace_async(),
_create_readwrite(), _create_readwrite_async(), _replace_readwrite(),
_replace_readwrite_async(). That can be done as a separate patch
later.

Previously, we called g_file_query_info() *again* on the source at the
very end of the copy. This has the lame semantics that if the source
happened to be deleted, we would fail to apply attributes to the
destination. This could even be a security flaw.
This commit changes things so that we query info from the source
*stream* after opening - i.e. on Unix we use the proper fstat() and
friends. That way we operate more atomically.

The freedesktop application specification is largely overlapping the
GLib application D-Bus interface but implementing it will allow for
applications to be launched directly from desktop files, which we want.
We keep the old Gtk interface for compatibility reasons and because it
has some functionality not in the freedesktop spec (Busy state,
CommandLine, etc.).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=699259
Since services are based on D-Bus activation and desktop files are
supposed to be named like the busname for DBusActivatable applications
and since gnome-shell wants wmclass equal to the desktop file name, we
therefore want wmclass equal to the application ID in this case.
wmclass is determined from the prgname, which is otherwise pretty
pointless to set to some random thing in $(libexec) for a D-Bus service,
so set that to the appid.
This means that for D-Bus services, the following things are now all the
same:
- application ID
- prgname
- wmclass property set on all windows
- desktop file name
- well-known bus name
There are not many applications running as D-Bus services at present so
this shouldn't impact anybody except for gnome-clocks (where this change
will be fixing a bug) and gnome-terminal.

OS X's getaddrinfo() only supports IPv6 scope IDs that are interface
names, not numbers. So use if_indextoname() to get the name of an
interface and construct an address using that.

In the case that HAVE_DBUS_DAEMON was undefined (as in ostree where glib
is built before D-Bus) this test was failing. Move it inside the
HAVE_DBUS_DAEMON block.
Remove the complications that were introduced in an attempt to make the
gsettings and gschema-compile tests function as installed tests. These
tests are designed (in large part for gsettings and entirely for
gschema-compile) to test the in-tree tools and should not be testing the
system versions.
In the future we may want to move the use of the in-tree tools from the
gsettings testcase into the Makefile and install the resulting files,
allowing this testcase to run against those files, installed.
Perform a substantial cleanup of the build system with respect to
building and installing testcases.
First, Makefile.decl has been renamed glib.mk and substantially
expanded. We intend to add more stuff here in the future, like canned
rules for mkenums, marshallers, resources, etc.
By default, tests are no longer compiled as part of 'make'. They will
be built when 'make check' is run. The old behaviour can be obtained
with --enable-always-build-tests.
--disable-modular-tests is gone (because tests are no longer built by
default). There is no longer any way to cause 'make check' to be a
no-op, but that's not very useful anyway.
A new glibtests.m4 file is introduced. Along with glib.mk, this
provides for consistent handling of --enable-installed-tests and
--enable-always-build-tests (mentioned above).
Port our various test-installing Makefiles to the new framework.
This patch substantially improves the situation in the toplevel tests/
directory. Things are now somewhat under control there. There were
some tests being built that weren't even being run and we run those now.
The long-running GObject performance tests in this directory have been
removed from 'make check' because they take too long.
As an experiment, 'make check' now runs the testcases on win32 builds,
by default. We can't run them under gtester (since it uses a pipe to
communicate with the subprocess) so just toss them in TESTS. Most of
them are passing on win32.
Things are not quite done here, but this patch is already a substantial
improvement. More to come.
This should be the last users that need to be ported.
For some of the oldschool non-gtester-ified tests, we call g_test_init()
from main() because it is necessary in order to use
g_test_build_filename().
Since this feature is so utterly automake-centric, we may as well be
using the same terminology as automake itself (ie: although it's
BUILT_SOURCES, it's DIST_EXTRA, not DISTED).
Also add some comments to the enum explaining that these terms are
really corresponding directly to the automake terms.
