David Zeuthen 05448a6bef gdbus-codegen: Rework C property getters
Rework property getters to use a vfunc so we can take the fast path
and avoid allocating memory for both the skeleton and the proxy
cases. This requires some special case because of how GVariant expects
you to free memory in some cases, see #657100. Add test cases for
this.

Document the _get_ functions as not being thread-safe and also
generate _dup_ C getters (which are thread-safe).

Mark all the generated _get_, _dup_ and _set_ as (skip) as non-C
languages should just use GObject properties and not the (socalled)
"C binding".

This package contains the reference documentation
for GLib. For more information about Glib,
see:

 http://www.gtk.org

For information about contributing to the
GLib/GTK+ reference documentation project, see:

 http://www.gtk.org/rdp/

The GLib reference documentation is freely redistributable,
see the file COPYING for details.


REQUIREMENTS
============

To build the documentation, you must have the gtk-doc
package installed. To rebuild the template files,
you must have the current version of the GLib
header files installed.


BUILD
=====

First, run configure to generate the makefiles for this
module. There is one option specific to this package

  --with-html-dir=DIR   top of installed HTML documentation tree


The Makefiles for this module define three targets:

 templates:
  
  Scan the headers and merge the results with the current 
  template files

 sgml:

  Generate SGML files using the DocBook DTD from
  the template files

 html:

  Generate HTML from the SGML files.

To build the documentation, do:

 make sgml
 make html

You should only run the 'make templates' step if you
need to regenerate the templates for a more recent
version of the GLib sources.


INSTALLATION
============

 make install
