Subject: Updates to GIO documentation. (#506395, Mikael Hermansson)
X-Git-Tag: GLIB_2_15_1~44
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=90023950118ef7e459eacc42d52cb77d0c298ab0;p=platform%2Fupstream%2Fglib.git

Updates to GIO documentation. (#506395, Mikael Hermansson)

* gcontenttype.c: Describe memory management for return value of
g_content_types_get_registered(). Missing piece from #505815.
* gdrive.c, gmount.c, gvolumemonitor.c: Add more description to
GVolume, GDrive, GMounts, which hopefully gives the user less
confusions when using this API. Following explainations from
Alexander Larsson on gtk-devel-list.
