/**
* GAppInfo:
*
* Information about an installed application and methods to launch
* it (with file arguments).
* `GAppInfo` and `GAppLaunchContext` are used for describing and launching
* applications installed on the system.
*
* As of GLib 2.20, URIs will always be converted to POSIX paths
* (using [method@Gio.File.get_path]) when using [method@Gio.AppInfo.launch]
* even if the application requested an URI and not a POSIX path. For example
* for a desktop-file based application with the following Exec key:
*
* ```
* Exec=totem %U
* ```
*
* and a single URI, `sftp://foo/file.avi`, then
* `/home/user/.gvfs/sftp on foo/file.avi` will be passed. This will only work
* if a set of suitable GIO extensions (such as GVfs 2.26 compiled with FUSE
* support), is available and operational; if this is not the case, the URI
* will be passed unmodified to the application. Some URIs, such as `mailto:`,
* of course cannot be mapped to a POSIX path (in GVfs there’s no FUSE mount
* for it); such URIs will be passed unmodified to the application.
*
* Specifically for GVfs 2.26 and later, the POSIX URI will be mapped
* back to the GIO URI in the [iface@Gio.File] constructors (since GVfs
* implements the GVfs extension point). As such, if the application
* needs to examine the URI, it needs to use [method@Gio.File.get_uri]
* or similar on [iface@Gio.File]. In other words, an application cannot
* assume that the URI passed to e.g. [func@Gio.File.new_for_commandline_arg]
* is equal to the result of [method@Gio.File.get_uri]. The following snippet
* illustrates this:
*
* ```c
* GFile *f;
* char *uri;
*
* file = g_file_new_for_commandline_arg (uri_from_commandline);
*
* uri = g_file_get_uri (file);
* strcmp (uri, uri_from_commandline) == 0;
* g_free (uri);
*
* if (g_file_has_uri_scheme (file, "cdda"))
* {
* // do something special with uri
* }
* g_object_unref (file);
* ```
*
* This code will work when both `cdda://sr0/Track 1.wav` and
* `/home/user/.gvfs/cdda on sr0/Track 1.wav` is passed to the
* application. It should be noted that it’s generally not safe
* for applications to rely on the format of a particular URIs.
* Different launcher applications (e.g. file managers) may have
* different ideas of what a given URI means.

/**
* GAppInfoMonitor:
*
* `GAppInfoMonitor` monitors application information for changes.
*
* `GAppInfoMonitor` is a very simple object used for monitoring the app
* info database for changes (newly installed or removed applications).
*
* Call [func@Gio.AppInfoMonitor.get] to get a `GAppInfoMonitor` and connect
* to the [signal@Gio.AppInfoMonitor::changed] signal. The signal will be emitted once when
* the app info database changes, and will not be emitted again until after the
* next call to [func@Gio.AppInfo.get_all] or another `g_app_info_*()` function.
* This is because monitoring the app info database for changes is expensive.
*
* The following functions will re-arm the [signal@Gio.AppInfoMonitor::changed]
* signal so it can be emitted again:
*
* - [func@Gio.AppInfo.get_all]
* - [func@Gio.AppInfo.get_all_for_type]
* - [func@Gio.AppInfo.get_default_for_type]
* - [func@Gio.AppInfo.get_fallback_for_type]
* - [func@Gio.AppInfo.get_recommended_for_type]
* - [`g_desktop_app_info_get_implementations()`](../gio-unix/type_func.DesktopAppInfo.get_implementation.html)
* - [`g_desktop_app_info_new()`](../gio-unix/ctor.DesktopAppInfo.new.html)
* - [`g_desktop_app_info_new_from_filename()`](../gio-unix/ctor.DesktopAppInfo.new_from_filename.html)
* - [`g_desktop_app_info_new_from_keyfile()`](../gio-unix/ctor.DesktopAppInfo.new_from_keyfile.html)
* - [`g_desktop_app_info_search()`](../gio-unix/type_func.DesktopAppInfo.search.html)
*
* The latter functions are available if using
* [`GDesktopAppInfo`](../gio-unix/class.DesktopAppInfo.html) from
* `gio-unix-2.0.pc` (GIR namespace `GioUnix-2.0`).
*
* In the usual case, applications should try to make note of the change
* (doing things like invalidating caches) but not act on it. In
* particular, applications should avoid making calls to `GAppInfo` APIs
* in response to the change signal, deferring these until the time that
* the updated data is actually required. The exception to this case is when
* application information is actually being displayed on the screen
* (for example, during a search or when the list of all applications is shown).
* The reason for this is that changes to the list of installed applications
* often come in groups (like during system updates) and rescanning the list
* on every change is pointless and expensive.
