The GApplicationCommandLine DBus implementation currently calls
g_dbus_method_invocation_return_value() in its finalize() implementation
only, relying on the object being destroyed after g_object_unref() is
called on it inside g_application_impl_method_call().
While this is usually fine for C applications, when overriding the
command_line vfunc from language bindings, the binding might add extra
references to the object, which might not be released immediately - e.g.
because they're garbage collected, or possibly even leaked. The same
scenario could happen in a C application that decides to keep a
reference to the passed-in GApplicationCommandLine object.
To ensure the CommandLine DBus method always gets a reply after the
invocation of command_line in the primary instance, explicitly send the
message back before dropping our reference to the object.

It's not difficult to do; not all backends implement it, and for some
it may be difficult to implement query_info_on_read(), so let's just
do both.

Since it could confuse callers (admittedly who are already violating
a precondition).
Just spotted while adapting some bits of this code for a ssh library.
This commit factors out a function for comparing string suffixes, and at
the same time makes it safe for mime types that are shorter than the
"/*" suffix.

Rather than having lots of obscure platform-based #ifdefs all over
gio, define some macros in gcredentialsprivate.h, and use those to
simplify the rest of the code.

Sometimes the application doesn't want to autostart a service
when it creates a proxy, but wants the service autostarted when
it makes the first method call. Allow that behavior with a new

Fix up a lot of whitespace issues in this file since we're about to do
some pretty serious rewriting here anyway...
Add some fold markers while we're at it.
Change the search path to be a global array of 'DesktopFileDir' structures and
change the 'get' function to an 'ensure' function.
This is just a straight-up refactor. Future patches will expand the
DesktopFileDir structure.
Add a convenient and race-free method of watching local files from the
GLib worker thread.
Without this, the race-free way to create a monitor that dispatches
events to the worker thread looked something like this:
- dispatch an idle to the worker thread
- from the idle, create the monitor and connect signals
- from the original thread, wait (on a cond?) until the worker thread
has finished setting up the monitor
- read the file that you were monitoring
which is just ridiculously complicated...
To use the new API:
monitor = g_local_file_monitor_new_in_worker ("/path/to/some/file",
G_FILE_MONITOR_NONE,
&error);
g_assert_no_error (error);
g_signal_connect (monitor, "changed", G_CALLBACK (callback), NULL);
g_local_file_monitor_start (monitor);
'callback' will run from the GLib worker thread.
This is the reason that the start() call was introduced in the previous
commit. The backends that don't use the start() call will have a very
thin race between creating the monitor and connecting the signal, but
hopefully they will be fixed soon.
These new APIs will be used (at least) from gdesktopappinfo to watch for
changes in the desktop file directories.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=704887
and start using the new start() vcall on the local monitor classes.
I only port inotify because I am uncomfortable making changes to the
other monitor backends without having a way of testing them.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=704887
Stop abusing constructor() to do startup work, adding _start() calls
instead.
The backends themselves still use constructor() although a patch will be
following to also fix inotify.
The reason for using a separate start() call instead of constructed()
will become apparent in future commits.

During initialisation of a directory monitor with the
G_FILE_MONITOR_WATCH_MOUNTS flag set, GLocalDirectory monitor will add a
UNIX mount watch in case the file notification backend doesn't support
reporting these events for itself.
Unfortunately, it was performing the check incorrectly, resulting in a
monitor always being added.
Fix that, and add the #define for G_LOCAL_DIRECTORY_MONITOR_GET_CLASS()
that was also missing (since the fix depends on it).

Matthew Barnes noted this on IRC a few days ago. I just had this file

Don't return children with invalid schemas from

There are some corner cases where using the sync version of read/write
in a thread could cause thread-safety issues. In these cases it's
possible to override the output stream's splice_async() function,
but for input streams one would need to do some acrobatics to
stay thread-safe. Alternatively, some implementations may not even
override their sync read/write functions.
This patch refactors the default splice_async() implementation to
call the sync read and write functions in a thread only when both
async versions are thread-based. When one or both are non-threaded,
it calls the virtual write_async() and read_async() functions of the
involved streams within the same thread.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=691581
Refactor g_output_stream_close_async() into itself and an internal
variant for potential use inside other operations (splice_async).
The internal version must be called between
g_output_stream_set_pending() and g_output_stream_clear_pending().
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=691581
Previously, no testcases tested the close flags of
g_output_stream_splice_async. This patch adds tests for that and
also tests various combinations of threaded and non-threaded
GInputStream async reads and GOutputStream async writes.

In implementing a better g_output_stream_splice_async() and possibly
other situtations it's helpful to know whether the output stream's
write function internally uses threads. If it and the input stream's
read async functions use threads, then the splice function could
spawn a single thread for better efficiency.
This patch adds a function to determine whether an output stream's
g_output_stream_write_async() function internally uses threads.

g_cancellable_disconnect will wait until any pending "cancelled"
handlers finish. This is useful because disconnecting a handler can have the
side-effect of freeing data that the cancelled handler may rely on.
Unfortunately, the code used to enforce this synchronization between
"cancelled" handlers and g_cancellable_disconnect will also cause
deadlock if the cancelled handler itself calls g_cancellable_disconect.
Obviously, if g_cancellable_disconnect is explicitly called by a "cancelled"
handler, then the "cancelled" handler is shouldering the responsibility
of not using any data that may be freed by disconnection.
Also, g_cancellable_disconnect can be called in unexpected places by
lower layers in the code (for instance as a result of g_source_destroy).
In practice, this means it's easy for deadlocks to inadvertently crop
up when using "cancelled" handlers.
For these reasons, it would be good to fix the deadlock.
This commit prevents the deadlock by allowing foregoing synchronization,
if a pending "cancelled" handler is in the same thread as the
g_cancellabale_disconnnect call.

In the real_..._async wrapper for GFile.measure_disk_usage, skip the
wrapping of the progress callback in the case that the user gave a NULL
callback to the async function. This is a performance improvement
because the sync version won't have to do continuous sampling of the
clock to issue a call to the wrapper which will then do nothing.
Unfortunately, I made this simplifying assumption when writing the
wrapper, but forgot to actually implement it when making the sync call.
As a result, the wrapper is still called, and invokes the NULL callback,
causing a segfault.
Make sure we pass NULL if the user's callback was NULL.

Make use of __wgetmainargs() on Windows so that we can get wide char
versions of the argv's that are passed in when this test program is being
invoked. This is necessary as one might enter non-ASCII, such as
CJK characters filenames and/or directories to run the test program
against, so that we can process the name(s) and pass the proper
UTF-8-encoded name(s) of the files/directories that is being tested.

It turns out that although dirent is available on mingw32 (where the
code was originally tested), it is not usable from MSVC.
Avoid portability problems by just using GDir.
Also, be careful about ensuring that we utf8-format filenames in our
error messages, and leave out the "file://" component since the strings
we're displaying are not URIs (and we don't want to make them URIs since
the extra escaping would reduce legibility).

Virtaal installs a mime package for various .po-like file formats, one
of which has the extension .txt. This causes GLib to report ".txt"
files still as "text/plain" but no longer with complete certainty.
The result is that asserting !uncertain during the testsuite causes the
test to fail if Virtaal happens to be installed.
Remove this assertion.
