This reverts commit b6d8efbebc.
This GLib API is good, but the implentation is not ready, so there's no
reason to commit to the API in GLib 2.64. We can reland again when the
implementation is ready.
There are three problems: (a) The glib-networking implementation normally
works, but the test has been broken for a long time. I'm not comfortable
with adding a major new feature without a working test. This is
glib-networking#104. (b) The WebKit implementation never landed. There
is a working patch, but it hasn't been accepted upstream yet. This API
isn't needed in GLib until WebKit is ready to start using it.
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=200805. (c) Similarly, even if
the WebKit API was ready, that itself isn't useful until an application
is ready to start using it, and the Epiphany level work never happened.
Let's try again for GLib 2.66. Reverting this commit now just means we
gain another six months before committing to the API forever. No reason
to keep this in GLib 2.64 when nothing is using it yet.
This adds support for specifying multiple directories in the
GSETTINGS_SCHEMA_DIR environment variable by separating the values
using G_SEARCHPATH_SEPARATOR_S (colon on UNIX-like systems).
While programs could already register multiple custom GSettings schema
directories, it was not possible to achieve the same without writing
custom code, e.g. when using the gsettings command line tool.
Fixes#1998.
Currently the code generated by gdbus-codegen uses
G_DBUS_CALL_FLAGS_NONE in its D-Bus calls, which occur for each method
defined by the input XML, and for proxy_set_property functions. This
means that if the daemon which implements the methods checks for
G_DBUS_FLAGS_ALLOW_INTERACTIVE_AUTHORIZATION and only does interactive
authorization if that flag is present, users of the generated code have
no way to cause the daemon to use interactive authorization (e.g. polkit
dialogs).
If we simply changed the generated code to always use
G_DBUS_FLAGS_ALLOW_INTERACTIVE_AUTHORIZATION, its users would have no
way to disallow interactive authorization (except for manually calling
the D-Bus method themselves).
So instead, this commit adds a GDBusCallFlags argument to method call
functions. Since this is an API break which will require changes in
projects using gdbus-codegen code, the change is conditional on the
command line argument --glib-min-version having the value 2.64 or
higher.
The impetus for this change is that I'm changing accountsservice to
properly respect G_DBUS_FLAGS_ALLOW_INTERACTIVE_AUTHORIZATION, and
libaccountsservice uses generated code for D-Bus method calls. So
these changes will allow libaccountsservice to continue allowing
interactive authorization, and avoid breaking any users of it which
expect that. See
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/accountsservice/accountsservice/merge_requests/46
It might make sense to also let GDBusCallFlags be specified for property
set operations, but that is not needed in the case of accountsservice,
and would require significant work and breaking API in multiple places.
Similarly, the generated code currently hard codes -1 as the timeout
value when calling g_dbus_proxy_call*(). Add a timeout_msec argument so
the user of the generated code can specify the timeout as well.
Also, test this new API. In gio/tests/codegen.py we test that the new
arguments are generated if and only of --glib-min-version is used with a
value greater than or equal to 2.64, and in gio/tests/meson.build we
test that the generated code with the new API can be linked against.
The test_unix_fd_list() test also needed modification to continue
working now that we're using gdbus-test-codegen.c with code generated
with --glib-min-version=2.64 in one test.
Finally, update the docs for gdbus-codegen to explain the effect of
using --glib-min-version 2.64, both from this commit and from
"gdbus-codegen: Emit GUnixFDLists if an arg has type `h` w/
min-version".
This reverts commit 398c048c66.
It got removed because it used to cause build issues, but now that we
have a CI let's hope it won't be a problem any more.
This can be used by callers to opt-in to backwards-incompatible changes
to the behaviour or output of `gdbus-codegen` in future. This commit
doesn’t introduce any such changes, though.
Documentation and unit tests included.

This sets the `G_FILE_COPY_DEFAULT_PERMS` flag on the operation,
creating the copied file with default permissions rather than the same

Fixes: #174
Currently, there is no quick way to find whether and element is already
part of a list store, except for manually writing a for-loop and calling
`g_list_model_get_item()` and breaking when you find the item.
This is mostly just a small API addition to support this use case.

These are alternatives to g_file_info_{get,set}_modification_time(),
which will soon be deprecated due to using the deprecated GTimeVal
type, which is not year 2038 safe.
The new APIs take a GDateTime instead.

dep-list.c isn’t generated, but contains non-documentation gtk-doc-style
comments which are probably better left in place, since the code is
partially external to GLib.

Those lists were getting very long. We can’t quite entirely automate the
list generation since Meson doesn’t have a range() function, but we can
at least combine three of them into one.

The g_app_info_launch_uris_async() and g_app_info_launch_uris_finish()
functions are crucial to fix g_app_info_launch_default_for_uri_async()
to be really asynchronous.
This patch also adds GDesktopAppInfo implementation of that vfuncs.
The implementation may still use some synchronous calls to local MIME DB.

This allows returning WOULD_BLOCK without allocating a GError, and
should later be used for various functions of GPollableOutputStream,
GPollableInputStream and anything else that can potentially block.
So long, and thanks for everything. We’re a Meson-only shop now.
glib-2-58 will remain the last stable GLib release series which is
buildable using autotools.
We continue to install autoconf macros for autotools-using projects
which depend on GLib; they are stable API.

Right now this can only be set at construction but not read back.
That seems unnecessarily restrictive, and we'll need to read these
flags from outside of gdbusconnection.c in the next commit, so let's
just make it public.

Add option to not encode resource data into the C source file
in order to embed the data using `ld -b binary`. This improves compilation
