Description Giovanni Campagna 2013-02-22 16:58:49 UTC

act_user_is_loaded() and ActUser:is-loaded shadow each other, and this confuses language bindings.

In particular, this is one of those cases where https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=690450 causes a regression.

(I don't know if you follow the GNOME release, but in that case, I guess this is matter for the next cycle, because it involves an API change)

Comment 1 Matthias Clasen 2013-04-03 17:39:22 UTC

Can we use annotations to resolve the confusion ?

Comment 2 Giovanni Campagna 2013-04-10 15:05:01 UTC

Annotations cannot rename properties. We can rename act_user_is_loaded() to something else, but currently gobject-introspection requires that the new name already exists (ie if we go for act_user_get_is_loaded(), we must also add a C function with that name)
