This makes code that sets no flags a bit more self-documenting:
using G_TYPE_FLAG_NONE makes it clearer that no special behaviour is
required than literal 0, and clearer that there is no weird casting
between types than (GTypeFlags) 0.
GTypeFlags and GTypeFundamentalFlags occupy the same namespace and the

Pass arguments to them so that they take minimal time. This will not
produce useful performance profiling results, but will smoketest that
the tests still run, don’t crash, and therefore probably aren’t
bitrotting too badly.
This is useful because a fair amount of work has gone into these

Coverity notices the `g_object_unref()` call in `g_object_notify()`, but
not the paired `g_object_ref()` call. It therefore incorrectly assumes
that every call to `g_object_notify()` frees the object. This causes a
lot (hundreds) of false positive reports about double-frees or
use-after-frees.
I can’t find a way to fix this using a model file, so the other options
are:
* Manually mark every report as a false positive and keep updating them
as the code changes over time. This would take a lot of maintainer
effort.
* Comment out the `g_object_ref()`/`g_object_unref()` calls when
running static analysis (but not in a normal production build). This
is ugly, but cheap and shouldn’t impact maintainability much.
So this commit implements option 2.

g_object_new_with_custom_constructor needs to handle
freezing notifications in the same way as
g_object_new_internal.
Fixing a bug pointed out by Christian Hergert.
The corner-case we are handling here is that
we don't freeze the notify queue in g_object_init
(because there's no custom ->notify vfunc, but
then we gain a notify handler during instance
init, and instance init also triggers a
notification. Handle this by jit freezing
notification in g_object_notify_by_spec_internal.
Note that this is bad code - instance init really
shouldn't be doing things like this.
Testcase included.
Fixes: #2665

Install the properties with a mixture of
g_object_class_install_properties and
g_object_class_install_properties, and verify
that finding them still works, regardless of
whether we use string literals or not.
When the param specs are provided as an array
with g_object_class_install_properties, keep
a copy of that array around and use it for
looking up properties without the param spec
pool.
Note that this is an opportunistic optimization -
currently, it only works for properties of the
class itself, not for parent classes, and it
only works if the property names are identical
string literals (we're at the mercy of the linker
for that).
If we don't get lucky, we fall back to using
the pspec pool as usual.
This may fix Coverity assuming that pspecs are leaked, which is causing
tens and tens of false positives in the latest Coverity reports for
GLib.
Ensure that the pspecs are sunk (if floating) even if adding them to the
class fails (due to validation failure or an identically named property
already existing).

If we have no nontrivial notify vfunc, and no signal
handlers for notify, we don't need to maintain the
notify queue. No need to notify if nobody's listening.
Check whether an object has a nontrivial notify vfunc
and avoid creating and updating the notify queue if
it doesn't. We know that there can be no notify signal
handlers at this point. No need to notify if nobody's
listening.
We currently keep a flag for whether an object has
ever had any signal handlers. But even if it had signal
handlers, it may not have any notify handlers. Keep that
information separately, so we can speed up property setting.
According to the commit that introduced these
calls (4b334ef8f1), we are checking
the refcount here to avoid calling g_object_ref
when the refcount is 0, in the rare case that
notification would be triggered during finalize.
But we are now freezing notifications during
finalize, and after recent changes, we no longer call
g_object_ref for notification while a freeze is
in place.
We only need to take a ref on the object when
we call out to external code (ie around
->dispatch_properties_changed). If we avoid
the signal emission, we can avoid the ref/unref
too. This is not currently happening, but
might in the future.
A small reorg that reduces the code and matches
what we do for object_get_property.
Note that as a consequence of this change, we now
check the deprecated flag on the redirected property,
not on the original when setting properties. This
matches what we were already doing for getting
properties.
The code that emits property deprecation warnings
rarely runs, and doesn't need to be inlined
everywhere. It is enough to inline the check for
the deprecation flag.
It is safe not to copy arguments here,
because we are not emitting any signals
before we are done setting the values
as properties.
This matches what we do for g_object_new now.
We can safely use the values without copying here.

Avoid GValue transformation when we can, using
the new value_is_valid vfunc.
This is particularly useful for string properties,
where g_value_transform will make a copy of the string.
In constrast to value_validate, this one does not
modify the passed-in value, so we can avoid the cost
of copying the GValue beforehand.
It is optional, but we set it for most of the
builtin pspec types.
In several places we do paired calls of g_value_init
and g_value_unset, both of which peek the value table.
We can avoid half of that cost by remembering the value
table, instead of looking it up again.
This uses the new G_VALUE_COLLECT_INIT2 macro.
The user data parameters in callbacks need to be named user_data to
generate correct closure attributes in the introspection data. This
updates parameters missed in GNOME/glib!2633.
As noticed by Christian Hergert: We can reduce
some overhead by checking for exact type
equality first. According to Christian, around
3% of g_type_is_a calls are exact equalities.
Using prefixed property names like GtkWidget::visible
is very deprectated and basically never done. So avoid
paying the strchr cost before doing the first lookup.
Most of the time, we are dealing with static strings,
and we can compare them directly and avoid the strcmp.
Note that triggering this optimization requires
properties to be marked as G_PARAM_STATIC_NAME.
Drop the redundant `PROP_0` (which isn’t a real property) and initialise
the first member of the enum instead.
Add a typedef so that the enum type can be used in `switch` statements
in `get_property()` and `set_property()` vfuncs. This allows
`-Wswitch-enum` to be used to improve type safety.
The examples here don’t have `get_property()` or `set_property()`
vfuncs, but people might copy/paste the code to somewhere which does.

Much like GBindingGroup, the GSignalGroup object allows you to connect many
signal connections for an object and connect/disconnect/block/unblock them
as a group.
This is useful when using many connections on an object to ensure that they
are properly removed when changing state or disposing a third-party
object.
This has been used for years in various GNOME projects and makes sense to
have upstream instead of multiple copies.
Originally, GBindingGroup started with Builder as a way to simplify all
of the third-degree object bindings necessary around Model-Controller
objects such as TextBuffer/TextView.
Over time, it has grown to be useful in a number of scenarios outside
of Builder and has been copied into a number of projects such as GNOME
Text Editor, GtkSourceView, libdazzle, and more.
It makes sense at this point to unify on a single implementation and
include that upstream in GObject directly alongside GBinding.
Glib cannot be built statically on Windows because glib, gobject and gio
modules need to perform specific initialization when DLL are loaded and
cleanup when unloaded. Those initializations and cleanups are performed
using the DllMain function which is not called with static builds.
Issue is known for a while and solutions were already proposed but never
merged (see: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/issues/692). Last
patch is from version 2.36.x and since then the
"constructor/destructor" mechanism has been implemented and used in
other part of the system.
This patch takes back the old idea and updates it to the last version of
glib to allow static compilation on Windows.
WARNING: because DllMain doesn't exist anymore in static compilation
mode, there is no easy way of knowing when a Windows thread finishes.
This patch implements a workaround for glib threads created by calling
g_thread_new(), so all glib threads created through glib API will behave
exactly the same way in static and dynamic compilation modes.
Unfortunately, Windows threads created by using CreateThread() or
_beginthread/ex() will not work with glib TLS functions. If users need
absolutely to use a thread NOT created with glib API under Windows and
in static compilation mode, they should not use glib functions within
their thread or they may encounter memory leaks when the thread finishes.
This should not be an issue as users should use exclusively the glib API
to manipulate threads in order to be cross-platform compatible and this
would be very unlikely and cumbersome that they may mix up Windows native
threads API with glib one.
Closes#692
Notifying during object destruction is a dubious "feature": objects
might end up recreating a bunch of state just before clearing it;
language bindings might get spurious notifications during garbage
collection runs.
We freeze the notification queue before running the dispose() chain; if
the object was temporarily vivified during dispose, we thaw the
notification queue, otherwise we let the instance clear it when we
finalize it.
See: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gjs/-/issues/445
We now guarantee that GObjects will always be allocated at least as
aligned as the basic types. If you want to put an element in your
GObject which has higher alignment requirements, we can’t guarantee it
will be aligned*. If you need it to be aligned, you’ll need to put it on
the heap (aligned appropriately), or add appropriate padding in your
GObject struct.
*Actually, GSlice will guarantee that the whole GObject is aligned to at
least the power of 2 greater than or equal to the size of the GObject,
which means any element in the GObject struct should always be
appropriate aligned if the compiler pads it appropriately. If malloc()
is used, however, it doesn’t make that guarantee, so we can’t make that
guarantee overall.

Regardless of the actual alignment of the GTypeInstance in question,
these do a runtime check on the type, so if the type was originally
aligned correctly when allocated, it should be aligned correctly if the
type check succeeds. -Wcast-align is meant to warn about casts between
types, which this isn’t (if the check succeeds).

See the reasoning in the patch for why we believe GObjects *are*
(already) as aligned as the basic types.
We want to make this guarantee so that it’s guaranteed to be safe for
people to ignore -Wcast-align warnings for GObjects which contain basic
types. This typically happens with gdouble on 32-bit ARM platforms.
The checks are slightly complicated by the need to support GObjects with
custom constructors. We should expect that a custom construction
function will chain up to g_object_constructor (which calls
g_type_create_instance() as normal), but it’s possible that someone has
done something crazy and uses a custom allocator which doesn’t return
with the same alignment as GSlice. Hand them a warning in that case. If
that is true, the code which uses their custom-constructed GObject can
presumably already deal with the alignment it gets given.
