491f835c17 GDateTime: Support parsing ISO 8601 strings
This supports a subset of ISO 8601 since that is a commonly used standard for
storing date and time information. We support only ISO 8601 strings that contain
full date and time information as this would otherwise not map to GDateTime.
This subset includes all of RFC 3339 which is commonly used on the Internet and
the week and ordinal day formats as these are supported in the GDateTime APIs.

(Minor modification by Philip Withnall to change API versions from 2.54
to 2.56.)

6503352be1 gvariant: Add g_variant_get() example for dicts
In the Dictionary section of the gvariant-format-strings documentation
only how to construct a dictionary is shown.

Add a small example showing how to extract data from a nested dictionary
and specifically from a GVariant of type "(oa{sa{sv})". Move also the
Dictionary section after the GVariant * section for the sake of clarity.

93f16a45ab Rewrite glib-genmarshal in Python
We're in the process or rewriting other tools in Python to reduce the
number of dependencies of GLib.

Additionally, making glib-genmarshal a Python script reduces the
complexity when cross-compiling, as we don't need a native build to
generate the marshallers.

4fe89b0437 gstrfuncs: Add replacement for string-to-number functions
Very often when we want to convert a string to number, we assume that
the string contains only a number. We have g_ascii_strto* family of
functions to do the conversion but they are awkward to use - one has
to check if errno is zero, end_ptr is not NULL and *end_ptr points to
the terminating nul and then do the bounds checking. Many projects
need this kind of functionality, so it gets reimplemented all the
time.

This commit adds some replacement functions that convert a string to a
signed or unsigned number that also follows the usual way of error
reporting - returning FALSE on failure and filling an error output
parameter.

7890573f6e gdbus-tool: Add a command to wait for a well-known name on the bus
This is effectively the mc-wait-for-name tool from
telepathy-mission-control; moving it in to gdbus-tool will make it more
widely useful without making people depend on telepathy-mission-control
for no other reason. The code here is reimplemented from scratch to use
GDBus.

It blocks until the specified well-known name is owned by some process
on the bus (which can be the session, system, or any other bus). By
passing --activate, the same (or a different) name can be auto-started
on the bus first.

A timeout can be specified to ensure the process doesn’t block forever.

Add --dependency-file=foo.d option to generate a gcc -M -MF style
dependency file for other build tools. The current output of
--generate-dependencies is only useful for use directly in Makefile

test.gresource.xml: test1.txt test2.txt test2.txt

The changes in this patch, compared to his are to always return
the hash table with file information from parse_resource_file, so

was TRUE or not.

c4695f192c build: Rename SystemTap scripts to include the LT version
In a vague attempt at ensuring the .stp scripts can be closely
associated with the .so files which they hard-code references to, rename
the scripts so they include the LT version — so that they are the .so
file name plus .stp.

This does not fix the fact that our .stp scripts will not work on
multiarch systems, as they are installed in an architecture-independent
directory (/usr/share/systemtap/tapset). At the moment, it is
recommended that any distribution who package the .stp files should
install them in the architecture-specific subdirectories of this (for
example, /usr/share/systemtap/tapset/x86-64).

A better long-term solution for this is under discussion upstream:

98f86beed6 gdbus-codegen: Only generate autocleanup when instructed to
This adds a new --c-generate-autocleanup option to gdbus-codegen
which can be used to instruct gdbus-codegen about what autocleanup
definitions to emit.

Doing this unconditionally was found to interfere with existing
code out in the wild.

The new option takes an argument that can be
none, objects or all; to indicate whether to generate no
autocleanup functions, only do it for object types, or do it
for interface types as well. The default is 'objects', which
matches the unconditional behavior of gdbus-codegen on the 2.48
branch.

d0219f2597 GLib: add bounds-checked unsigned int arithmetic
Add some helpers for builds-checked unsigned integer arithmetic to GLib.
These will be based on compiler intrinsics where they are available,
falling back to standard manual checks otherwise.

The fallback case needs to be implemented as a function (which we do
inline) because we cannot rely on statement expressions.  We also
implement the intrinsics case as an inline in order to avoid people
accidentally writing non-portable code which depends on static
evaluation of the builtin.

For now there is only support for addition and multiplication for guint,
guint64 and gsize.  It may make sense to add support for subtraction or
for the signed equivalents of those types in the future if we find a use
for that.

128c413261 gsocketconnectable: Add a to_string() virtual method
Add string serialisation functions for GNetworkAddress, GSocketAddress,
GUnixSocketAddress, GInetSocketAddress, GNetworkService and
GSocketConnectable. These are intended for use in debug output, not for
serialisation in network or disc protocols.

They are implemented as a new virtual method on GSocketConnectable:
g_socket_connectable_to_string().

GInetSocketAddress and GUnixSocketAddress now implement
GSocketConnectable directly to implement to_string(). Previously they
implemented it via their abstract parent class, GSocketAddress.

4e631d2e5f gio: Add GDatagramBased interface and rebase GSocket on it
GDatagramBased is an interface abstracting datagram-based communications
in the style of the Berkeley sockets API. It may be contrasted to (for
example) GIOStream, which supports only streaming I/O.

GDatagramBased allows socket-like communications to be done through any
object, not just a concrete GSocket (which wraps socket()).

This adds the GDatagramBased interface, and implements it in GSocket.

fa0f51ddf8 fileinfo: Add a G_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_STANDARD_IS_VOLATILE attribute
This is meant for opaque, non-POSIX-like backends to indicate that the
URI is not persistent. Applications should look at
G_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_STANDARD_SYMLINK_TARGET for the persistent URI.
Examples of such backends could be a portal for letting sandboxed
applications access the file-system, or a database-backed storage like
Google Drive.

In these cases, the user visible file and folder names are different
from the real identifiers, used by the backend. So, a request to
create google-drive://user@gmail.com/foo/New\ File, would actually
lead to google-drive://user@gmail.com/foo/bar on the server even though
the user visible name is still "New File". Since the server-defined URI
is persistent and sanity-checked by the backend, it is recommended that
applications switch to it as soon as possible. Backends will try to
keep a mapping from "fake" to "real" URIs, but those are only on a
best effort basis. They might not be persistent or have the same
guarantees as the "real" URIs.

This can be used to query whether the task has completed, in the sense
that it has had a result set on it, and has already – or will soon –
invoke its callback function.

Notifications for this property are emitted immediately after the task’s
main callback, in the same main context as that callback. This allows
for multiple bits of code to listen for completion of the GTask, which
opens the door for blocking on cancellation of the GTask and improved
handling of ‘pending’ behaviour.

Maybe Makefile.am could remove them automatically so we can
remove gio.types from git and rely on --rebuild-types option?

3f3eac474b GListStore: add sorted insert function
Add g_list_store_insert_sorted() which takes a GCompareDataFunc to
decide where to insert.  This ends up being a very trivial function,
thanks to GSequence.

2596919c58 macros: add support for GNUC cleanup __attribute__
Add g_auto() and g_autoptr() as helpers for declaring variables with
automatic cleanup.

Add some macros to help types define cleanup functions for themselves.

Going forward it will be an expectation that people use this macro when
creating a new type, even if they do not intend to use the auto-cleanup
functionality for themselves.

These new macros only work on GCC and clang, which is why we resisted
adding them for so long.  There exist many people who are only
interested in writing programs for these compilers, however, and a
similar API in libgsystem has proven to be extremely popular, so let's
expose this functionality to an even wider audience.

We ignore deprecation warnings when emitting the free functions, which
seems suspicious.  The reason that we do this is not because we want to
call deprecated functions, but just the opposite: sometimes the free
function will be an _unref() function that is only AVAILABLE_IN newer
versions, and these warnings are also implemented as deprecation
warnings.
