6f1b574cea Doc: Fix missing glibconfig.h when builddir!=srcdir
Currently the doc is incomplete when builddir!=srcdir
(e.g. debian package) because glibconfig.h is generared from
configure.ac and is thus missing from srcdir. This leads to
missing doc for symbols like G_GINT64_FORMAT.

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.

e5734c37a6 Add g_list_store_sort
GListStore already has a g_list_store_insert_sorted function,
which can be used to keep the list sorted according to a fixed
sort function. But if the sort function changes (as e.g. with
sort columns in a list UI), the entire list needs to be
resorted. In that case, you want g_list_store_sort().

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.

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.

d951db4236 gobject: Add g_set_object() convenience function to set GObject pointers
Along the same lines as g_clear_object(), g_set_object() is a
convenience function to update a GObject pointer, handling reference
counting transparently and correctly.

Specifically, it handles the case where a pointer is set to its current
value. If handled naïvely, that could result in the object instance
being finalised. In the following code, that happens when
(my_obj == new_value) and the object has a single reference:
    g_clear_object (&my_obj);
    my_obj = g_object_ref (new_value);

It also simplifies boilerplate code such as set_property()
implementations, which are otherwise long and boring.

Test cases included.

64f9bf96fd gnetworkaddress: Add g_network_address_new_loopback() constructor
This is a convenience method for creating a GNetworkAddress which is
guaranteed to return IPv4 and IPv6 loopback addresses. The program
cannot guarantee that 'localhost' will resolve to both types of
address, so programs which wish to connect to a local service over
either IPv4 or IPv6 must currently manually create an IPv4 and another
IPv6 socket, and detect which of the two are working. This new API
allows the existing GSocketConnectable machinery to be used to
automate that.

Based on a patch from Philip Withnall.

5575a3e9cb gio: don't accept nonstandard IPv4 "numbers-and-dots" addresses
In addition to the standard "192.168.1.1" format, there are numerous

"0xc0.0xa8.0x01.0x01", "0300.0250.0001.0001", "3232235777", and
"0xc0a80101"). However, none of these forms are ever used any more
except in phishing attempts. GLib wasn't supposed to be accepting
these addresses (neither g_hostname_is_ip_address() nor
g_inet_address_new_from_string() recognizes them), but getaddrinfo()
accepts them, and so the parts of gio that use getaddrinfo()
accidentally did accept those formats.

Fix GNetworkAddress and GResolver to reject these address formats.

Add support for parsing command line options with GApplication.

You can add GOptionGroup and GOptionEntry using two new APIs:
g_application_add_option_group() and
g_application_add_main_option_entries().

Also add a "handle-local-options" signal that allows handling of
commandline arguments in the local process without having to override
local_command_line.

As a special feature, you can have a %NULL @arg_data in a GOptionEntry
which will cause the argument to be stored in a GVariantDict.  This
dictionary is available for inspection and modification by the
"handle-local-options" signal and can be forwarded to the primary
instance in cases of command line invocation (where it can be fetched
using g_application_command_line_get_options()).

Also, g_test_set_nonfatal_assertions() has to set test_mode_fatal to
FALSE as well, or else a failed assertion will cause the test program
to abort at the end of the failed test.

Also, belatedly add this and the new g_assert_* methods to the docs.

51a917bc16 Remove alleged support for BeOS
Since the initial addition of BeOS support in 1999, there has only
been one update to it (in 2005, and it wasn't even very big). GLib is
known to not currently build on Haiku (or presumably actual BeOS)
without additional patching, and the fact that there isn't a single
G_OS_BEOS check in gio/ is suspicious.

Additionally, other than the GModule implementation, all of the
existing G_OS_BEOS checks are either (a) "G_OS_UNIX || G_OS_BEOS", or
(b) random minor POSIXy tweaks (include this header file rather than
that one, etc), suggesting that if we were going to support Haiku, it
would probably be simpler to treat it as a special kind of G_OS_UNIX
(as we do with Mac OS X) rather than as its own completely different
thing.

So, kill G_OS_BEOS.

Add an API to read the summary and description from the .xml schema

This will be used by dconf-editor and gnome-tweak-tool.

This API is a bit heavy -- it parses the XML and builds a table.  It
also loads gettext domains for translation.  It only does these things
if it is used, however, so it will not impact normal applications.

We store the summary/description in a pair of hash tables on the schema
source (which we have a backref to as of a few commits ago).  We can't
use a global table because people might want to request summary and
description from non-default sources.  We don't want to use per-schema
tables because we'd have to reparse the directory every time (since we
cannot guess which file a schema may have been in).

fe7069749f file-info: Add a G_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_THUMBNAIL_IS_VALID attribute
This indicates whether the thumbnail (given by G_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_THUMBNAIL_PATH)
is valid — i.e. to represent the file in its current state. If
G_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_THUMBNAIL_IS_VALID is FALSE (for a normal _or_ failed
thumbnail) it means the file has changed since the thumbnail was generated, and
the thumbnail is out of date.

Part of checking thumbnail validity (by the spec) involves parsing
headers out of the thumbnail .png so we include some (small) code to do
that in a separate file.  We will likely want to copy this code to gvfs
to do the same for GVfsFile.

Heavily based on a patch from Philip Withnall <philip.withnall@collabora.co.uk>

5b48dc40cc GSubprocess: New class for spawning child processes
There are a number of nice things this class brings:

0) Has a race-free termination API on all platforms (on UNIX, calls to
   kill() and waitpid() are coordinated as not to cause problems).
1) Operates in terms of G{Input,Output}Stream, not file descriptors
2) Standard GIO-style async API for wait() with cancellation
3) Makes some simple cases easy, like synchronously spawning a
   process with an argument list
4) Makes hard cases possible, like asynchronously running a process
   with stdout/stderr merged, output directly to a file path

6dc5c118e4 Implement the Desktop Action specification
For some time, the desktop file specification has supported "additional
application actions".  This is intended to allow for additional methods
of starting an app, such as a mail client having a "Compose New Message"
action that brings up the compose window instead of the folder list.

This patch adds support for this with a relatively minimal API.

In the case that the application is a GApplication and DBusActivatable,
desktop actions are translated into GActions that have been added to the
application with g_action_map_add_action().  This more or less closes
the loop on being able to activate an application with an action
invocation (instead of 'activate').

960f5500e2 gtestutils: add g_test_trap_subprocess()
g_test_trap_fork() doesn't work on Windows and is potentially flaky on
unix anyway given the fork-but-don't-exec. Replace it with
g_test_trap_subprocess(), which re-spawns the same program with
arguments telling it to run a specific (otherwise-ignored) test case.

Make the existing g_test_trap_fork() unit tests be unix-only (they
never passed on Windows anyway), and add a parallel set of
g_test_trap_subprocess() tests.

Also fix the logic of gtestutils's "-p" argument (which is used by the
subprocess tests); previously if you had tests "/foo/bar" and
"/foo/bar/baz", and ran the test program with "-p /foo/bar/baz", it
would run "/foo/bar" too. Fix that and add tests.

c18462b580 GParamSpec: add g_param_spec_get_default_value()
The way of getting the default value out of a GParamSpec is to allocate
a GValue, initialise it, then call g_param_spec_set_default() to set the
default value into that GValue.

This is exactly how we handle setting the default value for all of the
construct properties that were not explicitly passed to g_object_new().

Instead of doing the alloc/init/store on all construct properties on
every call to g_object_new(), we can cache those GValues in the private
data of the GParamSpec itself and reuse them.

This patch does not actually make that change to g_object_new() yet, but
it adds the API to GParamSpec so that a future patch to GObject can make
the change.

g_variant_new_string_printf() in order to avoid having to use
g_strdup_printf(), create a GVariant using g_variant_new_string(), then
free the temporary string.

Instead of supporting that, plus a million other potential cases,
introduce g_variant_new_take_string() as a compromise.

It's not possible to write:

 v = g_variant_new_take_string (g_strdup_printf (....));

to get the desired result and avoid the extra copies.  In addition, it
works with many other functions.

This feature is intended for clients that want to signal a desktop shell
their busy state, for instance because a long-running operation is
pending.
The API works in a similar way to g_application_hold and
g_application_release: applications can call g_application_mark_busy()
to increase a counter that will keep the application marked as busy
until the counter reaches zero again.

The busy state is exported read-only on the org.gtk.Application interface
for clients to use.

Expand and formalise the syntax for detailed action names, adding a

Port the only GLib-based user of detailed action names to the new API:
g_menu_item_set_detailed_action().  The users in Gtk+ will also be
ported soon.

f398bec5bc Add g_close(), use it
There are two benefits to this:

1) We can centralize any operating system specific knowledge of
   close-vs-EINTR handling.  For example, while on Linux we should never
   retry, if someone cared enough later about HP-UX, they could come by
   and change this one spot.
2) For places that do care about the return value and want to provide
   the caller with a GError, this function makes it convenient to do so.

Note that gspawn.c had an incorrect EINTR loop-retry around close().

cbf68cb22d gsource: Add support for file descriptors on UNIX
Adding file descriptors to a GSource provides similar functionality to
the old g_source_add_poll() API with two main differences.

First: the list of handles is managed internally and therefore users are
prevented from randomly modifying the ->events field.  This prepares us
for an epoll future where changing the event mask is a syscall.

Second: keeping the list internally allows us to check the ->revents for
events for ourselves, allowing the source to skip implementing
check/prepare.  This also prepares us for the future by allowing an
implementation that doesn't need to iterate over all of the sources
every time.

g_test_trap_fork() doesn't work on Windows and is potentially flaky on
unix anyway given the fork-but-don't-exec. Replace it with
g_test_trap_subprocess(), which re-spawns the same program with
arguments telling it to run a specific (otherwise-ignored) test case.

Make the existing g_test_trap_fork() unit tests be unix-only (they
never passed on Windows anyway), and add a parallel set of
g_test_trap_subprocess() tests.

ed5c17e11f GMemoryOutputStream: Add new _resizable() constructor usable from bindings
Really, the memory output stream API is too warped around the model
where it's a fixed size buffer that you've already allocated.  Even in
C, I find myself always wanting to use it to just accumulate data into
an arbitrary-sized buffer it allocates.

Unfortunately, it's also not usable from bindings because it's not
common to bind g_free() and g_realloc(), but if you just pass NULL, you
get the default of a fixed size, which is useless as per above.

I am going to use this from a gjs test case, and the GSubprocess test
cases also will use it.

14a1c20177 GFile: Add g_file_delete_async()
This looks like it was stubbed out but not implemented; the vtable
entry dates to commit 3781343738 which
is just alex's initial merge of gio into glib.

I was working on some code that wants an asynchronous rm -rf
equivalent, and so yeah, this is desirable.

f7abd3ce13 Add g_spawn_check_exit_status()
Many (if not "almost all") programs that spawn other programs via
g_spawn_sync() or the like simply want to check whether or not the
child exited successfully, but doing so requires use of
platform-specific functionality and there's actually a fair amount of
boilerplate involved.

This new API will help drain a *lot* of mostly duplicated code in
GNOME, from gnome-session to gdm.  And we can see that some bits even
inside GLib were doing it wrong; for example checking the exit status
on Unix, but ignoring it on Windows.

Finish deprecating the "handle GSimpleAsyncResult errors in the

deprecation warnings) by adding a "legacy" GAsyncResult method
to do it in those classes/methods where it had been traditionally
done.

(This applies only to wrapper methods; in cases where an _async
vmethod explicitly uses GSimpleAsyncResult, its corresponding _finish
vmethod still uses g_simple_async_result_propagate_error.)

it different.  Drop the comparison to Java which is dated and actually
inaccurate (because StringBuffer operates on Unicode).

While we're here, add g_string_free_to_bytes(), which further
complements the spread of GBytes-based API.  For example, one can
create a buffer using GString, then send it off via
g_output_stream_write_bytes().

2fd6eb7e1c Adds g_list_copy_deep and g_slist_copy_deep
They make a full (deep) copy of a list.

In contrast with g_[s]list_copy(), these functions take a function as a argument
to make a copy of each list element, in addition to copying the list container itself.

The functions g_[s]list_copy() were reimplemented to just call the new functions
with NULL as the function argument, which will behave like current implementation.

800d6ff111 gio: add GBytes-based input/output stream methods
Using a caller-supplied buffer for g_input_stream_read() doesn't
translate well to the semantics of many other languages, and using a
non-refcounted buffer for read_async() and write_async() makes it
impossible to manage the memory correctly currently in
garbage-collected languages.

Fix both of these issues by adding a new set of methods that work with
GBytes objects rather than plain buffers.

it's currently up to the application itself to do the classification
(for example by looking at the URI scheme for the activation root,
e.g. smb://).

This patch adds a new identifier G_VOLUME_IDENTIFIER_KIND_CLASS that
can be set by volume monitors and used by applications.

34aeeb7d64 Add flexible API version boundaries
There are cases when it should be possible to define at compile time
what range of functions and types should be used, in order to get,
or restrict, the compiler warnings for deprecated or newly added
types or functions.

For instance, if GLib introduces a deprecation warning on a type in
version 2.32, application code can decide to specify the minimum and
maximum boundary of the used API to be 2.30; when compiling against
a new version of GLib, this would produce the following results:

  - all deprecations introduced prior to 2.32 would emit compiler
    warnings when used by the application code;
  - all deprecations introduced in 2.32 would not emit compiler
    warnings when used by the application code;
  - all new symbols introduced in 2.32 would emit a compiler warning.

Using this scheme it should be possible to have fairly complex
situations, like the following one:

  assuming that an application is compiled with:
    GLIB_VERSION_MIN_REQUIRED = GLIB_VERSION_2_30
    GLIB_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED  = GLIB_VERSION_2_32

  and a GLib header containing:

    void function_A (void) GLIB_DEPRECATED_IN_2_26;
    void function_B (void) GLIB_DEPRECATED_IN_2_28;
    void function_C (void) GLIB_DEPRECATED_IN_2_30;
    void function_D (void) GLIB_AVAILABLE_IN_2_32;
    void function_E (void) GLIB_AVAILABLE_IN_2_34;

  any application code using the above functions will get the following
  compiler warnings:

    function_A: deprecated symbol warning
    function_B: deprecated symbol warning
    function_C: no warning
    function_D: no warning
    function_E: undefined symbol warning

This means that it should be possible to gradually port code towards
non-deprecated API gradually, on a per-release basis.
