+ * As of GLib 2.20, URIs will always be converted to POSIX paths
+ * (using g_file_get_path()) when using g_app_info_launch() even if
+ * the application requested an URI and not a POSIX path. For example
+ * for an desktop-file based application with Exec key `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 #GFile constructors (since gvfs
+ * implements the #GVfs extension point). As such, if the application
+ * needs to examine the URI, it needs to use g_file_get_uri() or
+ * similar on #GFile. In other words, an application cannot assume
+ * that the URI passed to e.g. g_file_new_for_commandline_arg() is
+ * equal to the result of g_file_get_uri(). The following snippet
+ * illustrates this:
+ *
+ * |[
+ * 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.

+ * @short_description: Monitor application information for changes
+ *
+ * #GAppInfoMonitor is a very simple object used for monitoring the app
+ * info database for changes (ie: newly installed or removed
+ * applications).
+ *
+ * Call g_app_info_monitor_get() to get a #GAppInfoMonitor and connect
+ * to the "changed" signal.
+ *
+ * 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 data is actually required. The exception to this case is when
+ * application information is actually being displayed on the screen
+ * (eg: 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.
+ *
+ * Since: 2.40
+ **/

+/**
+ * GAppInfoMonitor:
+ *
+ * The only thing you can do with this is to get it via
+ * g_app_info_monitor_get() and connect to the "changed" signal.
+ *
+ * Since: 2.40
+ **/
+
+/* We have one of each of these per main context and hand them out
+ * according to the thread default main context at the time of the call
+ * to g_app_info_monitor_get().
+ *
+ * g_object_unref() is only ever called from the same context, so we
+ * effectively have a single-threaded scenario for each GAppInfoMonitor.
+ *
+ * We use a hashtable to cache the per-context monitor (but we do not
+ * hold a ref). During finalize, we remove it. This is possible
+ * because we don't have to worry about the usual races due to the
+ * single-threaded nature of each object.
+ *
+ * We keep a global list of all contexts that have a monitor for them,
+ * which we have to access under a lock. When we dispatch the events to
+ * be handled in each context, we don't pass the monitor, but the
+ * context itself.
+ *
+ * We dispatch from the GLib worker context, so if we passed the
+ * monitor, we would need to take a ref on it (in case it was destroyed
+ * in its own thread meanwhile). The monitor holds a ref on a context
+ * and the dispatch would mean that the context would hold a ref on the
+ * monitor. If someone stopped iterating the context at just this
+ * moment both the context and monitor would leak.
+ *
+ * Instead, we dispatch the context to itself. We don't hold a ref.
+ * There is the danger that the context will be destroyed during the
+ * dispatch, but if that is the case then we just won't receive our
+ * callback.
+ *
+ * When the dispatch occurs we just lookup the monitor in the hashtable,
+ * by context. We can now add and remove refs, since the context will
+ * have been acquired.
