Description David Zeuthen (not reading bugmail) 2011-05-26 07:31:42 UTC

Please use @changed_properties instead of @invalidated_properties as discussed here

 http://mail.gnome.org/archives/desktop-devel-list/2011-May/msg00408.html

since it makes client-side implementations a lot simpler. Thanks!

Is it possible this can get fixed in this daemon and elsewhere soon? It's been almost five months now.

Comment 2 David Zeuthen (not reading bugmail) 2012-07-02 19:25:10 UTC

Btw, it's worth noting that as of GLib 2.32, there's now a flag

 G_DBUS_PROXY_FLAGS_GET_INVALIDATED_PROPERTIES

see

 http://developer.gnome.org/gio/unstable/GDBusProxy.html#GDBusProxyFlags-enum

that you can use in a GDBusProxy to "work around" this problem. Would still be great to fix the service as this is causing extra traffic, wakeups and misspent CPU cycles....

This is fixed in git.
