Just querying a new MSVC build problem after updating today from git
master. This is a different issue from the one I reported earlier with
'read_resource_string()'
'gio/gwin32appinfo.c' used to contain the following 4 x functions:-
g_app_info_get_all_for_type()
g_app_info_get_fallback_for_type()
g_app_info_get_recommended_for_type()
g_app_info_reset_type_associations()
After today's update they all seem to be missing now (and as such, the
linker reports them as unresolved symbols). However, I can't see
anything in the git log to suggest when (or why) they got removed. Have
they been moved somewhere else or has something gone wrong with my
update today??
These functions were not implemented during the w32 appinfo rewrite. IIRC, i haven't tried to implement them because it was not immediately clear how they should be implemented. First three (get_*_for_type) return X + Y, X and Y respectedly, where X is the list of apps that support a MIME/type specifically, and Y is the list of apps that support a MIME/type as a result of MIME/type subclassing. This is somewhat a mess, because content type support on W32 is inadequate (there's a bug for that, still in progress), so i just paid them no attention. g_app_info_get_recommended_for_type() and g_app_info_get_fallback_for_type() were dummies that called g_app_info_get_all_for_type(). It might be possible to quickly hack together an g_app_info_get_all_for_type() implementation by pretending that content type is an extension (it still is, until content type support bug is resolved), pulling appropriate record from the "GHashTable *extensions", reading the ->handlers hashtable and making appinfo objects from its contents; also maybe reading the ->other_apps hashtable and doing the same. Such implementation will be roughly as good as the old one was. g_app_info_reset_type_associations() undoes things that some other APIs do. Since these APIs are not implemented, g_app_info_reset_type_associations() is not implemented either. Previously g_app_info_reset_type_associations() was a dummy, now it's just missing. -- O< ascii ribbon - stop html email! - www.asciiribbon.org
