In reality, it only adds an initial 10 second wait for the first activation message to arrive after which it uses the normal inactivity timeout mechanism. --- diff --git a/gio/gapplication.c b/gio/gapplication.c index 29a5149d..36c91bd 100644 --- a/gio/gapplication.c +++ b/gio/gapplication.c @@ -1531,9 +1531,12 @@ g_application_open (GApplication *application, * non-zero then the default main context is iterated until the use count * falls to zero, at which point 0 is returned. * - * If the %G_APPLICATION_IS_SERVICE flag is set, then the exiting at - * use count of zero is delayed for a while (ie: the instance stays - * around to provide its service to others). + * If the %G_APPLICATION_IS_SERVICE flag is set, then the service will + * run for as much as 10 seconds with a use count of zero while waiting + * for the message that caused the activation to arrive.
