You can drop a key-file in the schema directory that looks like:
[org.gtk.Example]
key='value'
to override the default value of 'key' in schema 'org.gtk.Example'.
Add a <flags> tag to the schema file format and a flags='' attribute to
go along with. Add some extra test cases for those.
Add new g_settings_{get,set}_flags() calls and support binding to
GParamSpecFlags properties. Add test cases.
Add support for extends='' and list-of='' tags to the <schema> element.
The attributes are parsed and some sanity-checking is done but currently
nothing happens as a result.
Add some tests.
Neutralise and deprecate the --uninstall option in the schema compiler
and remove it from gsettings.m4.
Make the new default behaviour a compromise between the old default
behaviour and the previous --uninstall option:
- never return a failure code if no schema files are found
- issue a warning instead
- remove the gschemas.compiled file if it exists
gvdb just dropped the ability to have a separate "options" field. We
now store the options into a GVariant along with the default value.
For now, we use a small shim in GSettingsSchema in order not to touch
too much code. A more complete rewrite will follow.
This represents a change to the schema file format with another likely
to follow. glib-compile-schemas needs to be re-run after installing
this change.
The GSettings schema compiler was accepting any string as a path. It is
probably quite a common mistake to suspect that '/apps/foo' is a valid
path name when this will cause all sorts of trouble later. Check for
this case and report the error.
If --uninstall is given then don't give an error if the schema directory
is empty. Instead, erase the gschemas.compiled file, if it exists.
This is the right thing to do in the 'make uninstall' rule, where the
schema directory could very well be left empty as a result.
Modify gsettings.m4 to use this option.
Rename the --schema-files option to --schema-file, since it only
accepts one file at a time. Change the GSETTINGS_CHECK_RULE to
use it that way, too. And also make it work better with !srcdir
builds.
