It is a bug if we distribute files which are generated at build time —
they should be built on the machine which is compiling GLib, not be
shipped in the tarball.
This brings the autotools-generated tarball in line with the
ninja-generated one, with the exception of man pages and gtk-doc HTML
output.

This reverts commit 03c324c64a and fixes
the original problem with e004d5f397 that
caused the revert.
We use $(builddir) instead of $(abs_builddir) so that Automake's
dependency generation works correctly.
See !127.
In order to use the new posix_spawn gspawn codepath, for more robust
app launching when available memory is low, we need to meet some
conditions.
child_setup needs to be NULL for this optimization to work, so drop
the internal child_setup that is used here. Replace it with a lightweight
wrapper binary (gio-launch-desktop) that sets GIO_LAUNCHED_DESKTOP_FILE_PID
before executing the app.
Adjust PATH for gio tests so that it can execute the new binary from the
build directory.
GVfs utils used to have bash completion, which was pretty useful. However,
it hasn't been ported to gio tool unfortunately. GLib provides completion
for various utils already, so it would be nice to provide completion also
for gio tool. I've updated old bash completion code and merged with some
my old unmerged fixes.
The gvfs completion used "gvfs-ls --show-completions" helper. This mentioned
option hasn't been obviously ported to "gio list" and the proposed completion
doesn't add this option in "gio list" to not pollute the codes, but maybe it
is a bit slower as consequence.
The proposed bash completion suggests subcommands, uris and paths including
the remote mounts. It contains some workarounds, especially because of proper
handling of paths with colons and other special chars (like spaces)...
gio-querymodules-wrapper.py is copied from glib-networking. This python
wrapper script is needed because meson.build cannot check for DESTDIR
env variable itself, unlike Makefile.am. It is used to update
giomodule.cache file when installing GIO modules like fam.
In master, it is already possible to build GLib using Visual Studio
using Meson[1] for some time, so we should focus on maintaining only the
Meson build files for building GLib with Visual Studio.
[1]: There are caveats when building with Visual Studio 2008, namely
that one needs to use the mt command to embed the manifests that
are generated with the .exe/DLLs, for all builds, and that in the
case where the compilation hangs on Visual Studio 2008 x64, as a
workaround, should stop the build by terminating all cl.exe tasks
and change the compiler optimization flag from /O2 (full speed) to
/O1 (optimize for size), due to compiler optimization issues.
Those files got renamed to .c to work around an automake issue, but
Meson needs them to have .m extension. Better rename them at build time
in Makefile.am since that's where the workaround is needed.

This adds a null notification backend implementation for win32, purely
to avoid crashes due to a missing backend when applications use
GNotification. This backend does nothing except print a warning when a
notification is supposed to be emitted.
In future, it can be expanded to use win32 API to present toaster
notifications appropriately.

This makes it more consistent with the other win32 objects in GIO. This
commit just renames the files; a follow-up commit will rename the
GObject.

Added a Windows backend to GNetworkMonitor, using NotifyRouteChange2()
(available on Vista and later). It marshals the route change callbacks
to the thread-specific default main context the GNetworkMonitor was
constructed in.

GIO modules should include their name into their exported symbols to
make them unique. This avoids symbol clash when building modules
statically.
extract_name() function is copied from GStreamer which recently
switched to the same symbol naming scheme.

The Python version was added for the Meson build, but we might as well
use it from autotools too, since it does exactly the same thing as the
Perl version (modulo not including a trailing linebreak, but that
doesn’t matter).
Works fine with Python 2.7 or Python 3.

Closes: Bug #788401
The problem is described here:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=788401
This patch introduces the use of the xdgmime system to guess
the content type from data. So you can guess for example the
type public.svg-image from the file content of a svg file.
This patch only applies to MacOS. A test for the regression
is also included.
The OpenURI portal has a separate method to handle local
files now. Use it.
At the same time, split out the openuri helpers into separate
files, and generate code for the OpenURI portal.

This is an implementation of most of GAppInfo using the OS X
NSBundle APIs.
Missing at this point are things that don't have equivalents
in OS X, such as hidden desktop files, last-used, manual type
associations, and g_app_info_get_all().
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=734946
This is an implementation of most of GContentType using the OS X
UTType APIs.
Missing at this point is an implementation of
g_content_types_get_registered() and g_content_type_guess_for_tree().

It was suggested that the project files be moved here as we don't actually
need to go two directory layers from $(srcroot), and would help us to
standardize on things in the future across the board.
GLib has g_unix_mount_at (mount_path) already, let's add g_unix_mount_for
(file_path) for whatever path. GLib already contains some private code
for such task. Let's make this code public. This functionality is needed
by GVfs (see Bug 771431) in order to avoid copy-and-pasting.

At some point, upstream SystemTap changed from using a
STAP_HAS_SEMAPHORES preprocessor variable for this, to using
_SDT_HAS_SEMAPHORES instead. We need to update our build system to
disable that as well.
The original discussion about use of semaphores is here:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=606044
This was breaking the build with -flto enabled, either because -flto
doesn’t work with semaphores.

xdg-desktop-portal support is only usable on *NIX platforms, so don't build
them on non-*NIX platforms. Also clean up gio/Makefile.am a bit to split out
the listings for the platform-specific sources from the platform-neutral
sources, and assemble them for the final list of sources required for libgio.
