* dbus/dbus-glib.h:
* glib/dbus-gmain.h:
(dbus_g_connection_open): new method for openning
a connection to an arbitrary address in the glib bindings
* ChangeLog: checkin last entry which doesn't seem to be commited
This is a major change: library is source- and binary-incompatible to
what it used to be.
All testcases are green, functionality is preserved.
It is not feature-complete. Development will continue in the branch in the
Subversion server for a while.
* glib/dbus-binding-tool-glib.c, glib/dbus-gmain.c,
glib/dbus-gsignature.c, glib/dbus-gtype-specialized.c,
glib/dbus-gtype-specialized.h, glib/dbus-gvalue-utils.c,
glib/dbus-gvalue-utils.h, glib/dbus-gvalue.c:
Patch from Rob Taylor <rob.taylor@collabora.co.uk> to add a big
missing piece of the glib bindings jigsaw puzzle. This modifies
the existing specialised types to have N type parameters (rather
than the current 1 or 2 for arrays and dictionaries respectively).
You can then use this to get a glib type to represent any arbitrary
D-Bus struct type using dbus_g_type_get_struct. The only
implementation of these types is with GValueArrays as before,
but it's now possible to store these in arrays, emit them in
signals, etc.
* bus/connection.c (bus_connections_expect_reply): Make
pending reply limit not common to all connections (Bug #5416)
Patch from Kimmo Hämäläinen <kimmo.hamalainen at nokia.com>
* glib/dbus-binding-tool-glib.[ch]: Patch based on Ricardo Kekki's
patch to use an annotation org.freedesktop.DBus.GLib.ClientCSymbol
when generating the client-side methods, instead of overloading
CSymbol which broke everything horribly. My apologies.
* glib/dbus-gtype-specialized.[ch], glib/dbus-gvalue-utils.c: Patch
by me and Rob Taylor to add a simple_free function to D-Bus map
and collection types, which allows those types which can be freed
with a GDestroyNotify (such as GHashTables and GArrays, but not
GPtrArrays) to be stored as the values in hashtables.
* test/glib/test-dbus-glib.c, test/glib/test-service-glib.{c,xml}:
Patch by Rob Taylor to add nested dicts to the glib tests to check
the above code works, and appears not to leak when called repeatedly.
* glib/dbus-binding-tool-glib.c: Patch from Rob Taylor
<rob.taylor@collabora.co.uk> to add support for generating bindings
to arrays that are represented as GPtrArrays rather than GArrays (ie
size-variable things, such as strings, objects, structs, etc).
* dbus/dbus-glib.h, glib/dbus-gproxy.c: Patch from Ricardo Kekki
<ricardo.kekki@movial.fi> to make it possible to inherit from
DBusGProxy, by splitting the DBusGProxy struct into a public part and
a private part, and moving the setting of the DBusGProxyManager into a
connection property, allowing proper GObject construction.
* glib/dbus-binding-tool-glib.c: Patch from Ricardo Kekki
<ricardo.kekki@movial.fi> to make dbus-binding-tool heed C symbol name
annotations when generating glib client bindings.
* qt/qtconnection.cpp (requestName): Changed PROHIBIT_REPLACE to ALLOW_REPLACE
Note - this code is wrong and needs to be fixed by the Qt binding
developers. The flags should be treated as bitfields and not enums.
* qt/qtconnection.h: Change ProhibitReplace to AllowReplace
* dbus/dbus-list.c (link_after): remove #ifdef DBUS_BUILD_TESTS
method for getting messages off the bus in the absence of a
mainloop. This method is much like
dbus_connection_read_write_dispatch except it does not dispatch
the messages to a registered filter function. Instead it
allows a developer to process messages by directly popping
them off the bus.
the parser to continue instead of returning error
(bus_desktop_file_load): Do not free parser data when
parse_section_start or parse_key_value fails because it was
already freed by parser_free (patch from Carlos Garcia Campos

Various cleanup of dead code and compiler warnings (patch from
Kjartan Maraas <kmaraas at gnome.org>)
* python/dbus_bindings.pyx: Repair my previous commit which reverted
part of the preceding one. Oops. Merge patch by Johan Hedberg
<johan.hedberg@nokia.com> to fix marshalling of 16-bit integer values
on big-endian platforms.
* test/python/test-client.py: Add some 16-bit integers to the test
values.
* python/dbus_bindings.pyx: Fix a bug where doing a strict append
with type v of an instance of dbus.Variant(foo, type='x') caused
it to be boxed twice before sending over the bus.
* python/dbus_bindings.pyx, python/service.py,
test/python/test-client.py: Update the constants for the new
request_name flags, and update comments/test cases now that queueing
is the default action.

not to queue an ower if it can't be the primary owner
* bus/bus.h: Add new internal BusOwner struct
* bus/driver.c (bus_driver_handle_hello): Send flags (0 for default)
to bus_registry_ensure and don't set the prohibit_replacement flag
since they are now set per BusOwner and not per name.

instead of raw connections
(bus_service_add_owner): Add flags parameter
Switch to using BusOwner instead of raw connections
Add state machine for dealing with the new set of flags
(bus_service_swap_owner): Swaps the first and second owners in the
queue. Used to make sure proper signals are sent when a service looses
or gains primary ownership. We never insert an owner at the top of the
queue. Instead we insert it in the second position and then swap.
(bus_service_remove_owner): Remove the owner from the queue sending
out the NameLost and NameOwnerChanged signals if the we were the
primary owner
(bus_service_get_primary_owners_connection): New method that extracts
the connection from the primary owner
(bus_service_get_primary_owner): Returns the BusOwner instead of the

(bus_service_has_owner): returns TRUE if and owner with
the specified connection exists in the queue
* dbus/dbus-bus.c (dbus_bus_connection_get_unique_name): New helper
method that only compiles if tests are enabled. Allows us to get the
unique name of a connection so we can check it against the queue when
doing regression tests
* bus/activation.c (bus_activation_send_pending_auto_activate),
bus/dispatch.c (bus_dispatch),
bus/driver.c (bus_driver_handle_get_service_owner,
bus_driver_handle_get_connection_unix_user,

bus_driver_handle_get_connection_selinux_security_context),
bus/signals.c (connection_is_primary_owner):
use bus_service_get_primary_owners_connection instead of
bus_service_get_primary_owner
* dbus/dbus-sysdeps.c (_dbus_connect_unix_socket,
_dbus_listen_unix_socket): Calculate the length of the socket
path and use that instead of using a fixed length which was
causing socket names to contain many trailing Nul bytes.
* dbus/dbus-glib-lowlevel.h, glib/dbus-gobject.c
(dbus_g_method_get_sender): New method for extracting the sender
from a DBusGMethodInvocation
(dbus_g_method_return_get_reply): changed name to

glib/examples/statemachine/statemachine-server.c:
Changed the RequestName flags to the new system
* test/name-test/ (test-names.c, run-test.sh, Makefile.am): New
regression test suite for testing various states of the new
queueing system
* dbus/dbus-glib-lowlevel.h, glib/dbus-gobject.c: Patch from Rob
Taylor to add two methods, dbus_g_method_return_get_reply and
dbus_g_method_return_send_reply, to allow you to get the reply
message from a DBusGMethodInvocation, append arbitrary stuff to it,
and send it. The GLib bindings can't marshal a return value of
something like a(s) if the array is empty - ultimately they should be
made to heed the signature of the out arguments as the Python bindings
now can, but this is a workable interim solution which might have
other applications.
* bus/driver.c, bus/services.c, bus/services.h: Add a ReleaseName
method to org.freedesktop.DBus to release a bus name or give up
waiting in the queue for it.
* dbus/dbus-bus.c, dbus/dbus-bus.h, dbus/dbus-shared.h: Add a
dbus_bus_release_name method to send the ReleaseName method calls.
Add constants for the return values to dbus/dbus-shared.h.
* doc/dbus-specification.xml: Document the new ReleaseName method
in the specification.
* python/dbus_bindings.pyx: Add a low-level python binding for the
release name method.
* python/exceptions.py, python/service.py: Make freeing BusName
objects release the name. Add a NameExistsException, and fix a
bug with creating UnknownMethodException.
* test/python/test-client.py: Add tests for freeing BusName
objects causing names to be released.
Patch from Timo Hoenig <thoenig@suse.de>.
* bus/bus.c: I've recently investigated why the automatic reload
of configuration files does not work as expected.
Currently, reloading configuration files does only work when
running dbus-daemon with --nodaemon. If we are running as daemon
we're hitting a dnotify bug once we fork the process.
We're initializing the dnotify fds before calling fork(). Once
the child process forked it does still have the fds (and they
still show up in /proc/`pidof dbus-daemon`/fd/) but we're not
getting SIGIO as changes are made to the configuration files.
The attached patch moves the initialization of the dnotify fds to
process_config_postinit(). This is safe for all current code
paths and solves the dnotify disfunction. If we're running
dbus-daemon as daemon the fds for dnotify are now being
initialized after fork() for the child process.
* configure.in: The current configure.in check for dnotify probes
'x$target_os' for being 'xlinux-gnu'. I've changed the check to
match for 'xlinux', too. Additionally I have adapted the configure
option's style to match with the others.
* python/decorators.py, python/service.py: Add a new argument to the
dbus.service.method decorator called sender_keyword, which if set,
specifies the name of an argument which will be provided the bus
name of the method caller.
* test/python/test-client.py, test/python/test-service.py: Add a
method and test to check the sender_keyword functionality.
empty reply so blocking calls don't block forever (Patch from Sjoerd
Simons <sjoerd at luon.net>)
* AUTHORS: Add Robert McQueen for his work on the Python
Bindings and other parts of D-Bus
* python/decorators.py: Change emit_signal function to use the
signature annotation of the signal when marhsalling the arguments from
the service. Fix a bug where the code checking signature length
against argument length referenced the wrong variable.
* python/introspect_parser.py: Avoid adding the type signature of
signal arguments to any methods which occur after them in the
introspection data (!) by making the parser a little more careful
about its current state.
* python/service.py: Remove debug prints from last commit (again :D).
* test/python/test-client.py, test/python/test-service.py: Add test
signals with signature decorators to test the strict marshalling code
gives errors at the right time. Could do with checking the signals
actually get emitted too, given that the test does nothing with
signals at the moment...
* python/_dbus.py: Add WeakReferenceDictionary cache of dbus.Bus
instances to stop madness of creating new instances representing
the same bus connection all the time, rendering any tracking of
match rules and bus names quite meaningless. Caught a bug where
the private argument to SessionBus() and friends was being passed
in as use_default_mainloop by mistake. Still some problems with
multiple dbus_binding.Connection instances representing the same
low-level connection (eg when you use both SessionBus() and
StarterBus() in same process), but it's a lot better now than it
was.
* python/dbus_bindings.pyx: Add constants with the return values
for bus_request_name().
* python/service.py: Store bus name instances in a per-dbus.Bus cache
and retrieve the same instances for the same name, so deletion can be
done with refcounting. Also now throws some kind of error if you
don't actually get the name you requested, unlike previously...
* test/python/test-client.py: Add tests for instance caching of buses
and bus name objects.
