Much like GBindingGroup, the GSignalGroup object allows you to connect many
signal connections for an object and connect/disconnect/block/unblock them
as a group.
This is useful when using many connections on an object to ensure that they
are properly removed when changing state or disposing a third-party
object.
This has been used for years in various GNOME projects and makes sense to
have upstream instead of multiple copies.
Originally, GBindingGroup started with Builder as a way to simplify all
of the third-degree object bindings necessary around Model-Controller
objects such as TextBuffer/TextView.
Over time, it has grown to be useful in a number of scenarios outside
of Builder and has been copied into a number of projects such as GNOME
Text Editor, GtkSourceView, libdazzle, and more.
It makes sense at this point to unify on a single implementation and
include that upstream in GObject directly alongside GBinding.
This should remove some warnings from the CI, making it easier to see
legitimate CI failures.
For example, see https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/jobs/1621041.

When an object with toggle reference is notifying a change we just
assume that this is true because of previous checks.
However, while locking, another thread may have removed the toggle
reference causing the waiting thread to abort (as no handler is set at
that point).
To avoid this, once we've got the toggle references mutex lock, check
again if the object has toggle reference, and if it's not the case
anymore just ignore the request.
Add a test that triggers this, it's not 100% happening because this is
of course timing related, but this is very close to the truth.
Fixes: #2394
As per the previous change, an object that had weak locations set may
need to lock again the weak locations mutex during qdata cleanup, but
we can avoid this when we know we're removing the last location, by
removing the qdata entry and freeing the data.
In case a new location is needed for the same object, new data will be
added.
However, by doing this the weak locations during dispose may be
invalidated once the weak locations lock is passed, so check again if
this is the case while removing them.
It can happen that a GWeakRef is added to an object while it's disposing
(or even during finalizing) and this may happen in a thread that (weak)
references an object while the disposal isn't completed yet or when
using toggle references and switching to GWeakRef on notification (as
the API suggests).
In such scenario the weak locations are not cleaned up when the object
is finalized, and will point to a free'd area.
So, during finalization and when we're sure that the object will be
destroyed for sure, check again if there are new weak locations and
unset them if any as part of the qdata destruction.
Do this adding a new utility function so that we can avoid duplicating
code to free the weak locations.
Added various tests simulating this case.

Add a test for a signal returning interface types, using
the generic marshaller. This will hopefully exercise newly
added code in value_from_ffi_type().
This tests the new functionality that
g_type_interface_instantiable_prerequisite
was added for.
Before the changes, this fails with
GObject-WARNING **: Unable to convert a value of type \
GObject to a value of type Foo
We do the same test with g_object_bind_property_with_closures
as well, to exercise g_cclosure_marshal_generic.
Use the new g_type_interface_instantiable_prerequisite() to check
compatibility for transform functions.
In particular, this allows interfaces (in my case GDK_TYPE_PAINTABLE) to
be transformed to/from any GObject type (in my case G_TYPE_OBJECT) using
the transform function registered to transform between any 2 objects
(g_value_object_transform_value() does a type check and uses NULL if the
types don't match).
And this in turn allows be to g_object_bind_property() a gobject-typed
generic property (GtkListItem::item) to a GtkImage::paintable.
Tests for the new functionality are included.
This function returns the most specific instantiatable type
that is a prerequisite for a given interface.
This type is necessary in particular when dealing with GValues
because a GValue contains an instance of a type.
This commit includes tests for the new API.
It may be defined by the environment (we document that as being allowed)
— if so, individual files should not try to redefine it, as that causes
a preprocessor warning.

This adds support to be able to explicitely stored interned strings into
G_TYPE_STRING GValue.

* Wants to know whther the string stored is canonical
This allows:
* zero-cost GValue copy (the content is guaranteed to be unique and exist
throughout the process life)
* zero-cost string equality checks (if both string GValue are interned, you just
need to check the pointers for equality or not, instead of doing a strcmp).

The glib-mkenums program allows generating code to handle enums/flags
with very different purposes. One of its purposes could be generating
per-enum/flag methods to be exposed in a library API, and while doing
that, it would be nice to have a way to specify in which API version
the enum/flag was introduced, so that the same version could be shown
in the generated API methods.
E.g. From the following code:
/**
* QmiWmsMessageProtocol:
* @QMI_WMS_MESSAGE_PROTOCOL_CDMA: CDMA.
* @QMI_WMS_MESSAGE_PROTOCOL_WCDMA: WCDMA.
*
* Type of message protocol.
*
* Since: 1.0
*/
typedef enum { /*< since=1.0 >*/
QMI_WMS_MESSAGE_PROTOCOL_CDMA = 0x00,
QMI_WMS_MESSAGE_PROTOCOL_WCDMA = 0x01
} QmiWmsMessageProtocol;
The template would allow us to generate a method documented like this,
including the Since tag with the value given in the mkenums 'since' tag.
/**
* qmi_wms_message_protocol_get_string:
* @val: a QmiWmsMessageProtocol.
*
* Gets the nickname string for the #QmiWmsMessageProtocol specified at @val.
*
* Returns: (transfer none): a string with the nickname, or %NULL if not found. Do not free the returned value.

Making this validation code public allows projects to validate a
GParamSpec name before creating it. While hard-coded GParamSpec don't
need this, we can't afford crashing the main program for dynamically
generated GParamSpec from user-created data.
In such case, we will need to validate the param names and return errors
instead of trying to create a GParamSpec with invalid names.
Includes modifications from Philip Withnall and Emmanuele Bassi to
rearrange the new function addition and split it into one function for
GParamSpecs and one for GSignals.
When calling `g_set_object()` for a type derived from `GObject`, GCC 9.2
was giving the following strict aliasing warning:
```

```
This was due to the `(GObject **)` cast.
Pass the pointer through a union to squash this warning. We already do
some size and type checks of the dereferenced type, which should catch
casual errors. The `g_object_ref()` and `g_object_unref()` calls which
subsequently happen inside the `g_set_object()` function also do some
dynamic type checks.

Rather than adding a canonicalised and non-canonicalised version of the

lookups always use the canonicalised key (since the previous commit).
This saves space in `g_signal_key_bsa`, which should speed up lookups;
and it saves significant space in the global `GQuark` table (a 9.6%
reduction in entries in that table, by a rough test using
gnome-software).

we are for property name validation, as GTK installs a

The two test scripts actually assumed some *NIX paradigms, so we need
to adapt them so that they can work on Windows as well, the changes are
namely:
-Call the glib-mkenums and glib-genmarshal Python scripts with the
Python interpreter, not just relying on shebang lines, on Windows.
This is because the native Windows console (cmd.exe) does not support
shebang lines, for subprocess.run().
-Use NamedTemporaryFile with delete=False, otherwise Windows cannot find
the temp files we need when running the tests.
-Use universal_newlines=True for subprocess.run() so that we do not need
to worry out line ending differences on different systems.
-Make sure we are not in the temp directories we create, where the tests
are being run, upon cleanup. Windows does not like deleting
directories that we are currently in.
On Windows and possibly other platforms the '%p' printf modifier does
not prefix printed values with '0x', so do not expect the warning
message to contain the '0x' prefix for the handler pointer value.

The threads used to iterate at least 10000 times before setting the

enough to set seen_thread{1,2} by the fact that the test runs for a high
number of iterations. On some platforms/schedulers, that’s not true,

g_object_bind_property() (transfer none) returns a GBinding with an existing internal
reference which is active as long as the "binding" is. This allows to optionally use
the binding without any memory management, as it will remove itself when it is no longer
needed.
There are currently three ways to remove the "binding" and as a result the reference:
1) Either the source or target dies and we get notified by a weakref callback
2) The user unrefs the binding until it is destroyed (which is semi-legal,
but worked and is used in the test suite)
3) The user calls g_binding_unbind()
In case (3) the problem was that it always calls unref even if the "binding" is already
gone, leading to crashes when called from bindings multiple times.
In #1373 and !197 it was noticed that a function always unrefs which would be a
"transfer full" annotation, but the problem here is that it should only remove the
ref when removing the "binding" and the annotation should stay "transfer none".
As a side effect of this fix it is now also possible to call g_binding_unbind() multiple
times where every call after the first is a no-op.
This also adds explicit tests for case (1) and (3) - only case (3) is affected by this change.
Part of runMkenumsWithHeader() was duplicated in test_reproducible(),

the scripts installed by glib, to the full path of the interpreter.
The new meson module doesn't expose that atm, but we should set it to
a executable name anyway, and not a full path.
The implementation is silently discarding this anyway, and
g_object_unref() is using atomic operations. So this should be safe.
Having this here triggers -Wdiscarded-qualifiers when g_clear_pointer()
is fixed to use __typeof__().
