Constant Summary collapse

FLAGS_NONE =

Default

0 or :flags_none
IS_SERVICE =

Run as a service. In this mode, registration

fails if the service is already running, and the application
will initially wait up to 10 seconds for an initial activation
message to arrive.
1 or :is_service
IS_LAUNCHER =

Don’t try to become the primary instance.

2 or :is_launcher
HANDLES_OPEN =

This application handles opening files (in

the primary instance). Note that this flag only affects the default
implementation of local_command_line(), and has no effect if
%G_APPLICATION_HANDLES_COMMAND_LINE is given.
See g_application_run() for details.
4 or :handles_open
HANDLES_COMMAND_LINE =

This application handles command line

arguments (in the primary instance). Note that this flag only affect
the default implementation of local_command_line().
See g_application_run() for details.
8 or :handles_command_line
SEND_ENVIRONMENT =

Send the environment of the

launching process to the primary instance. Set this flag if your
application is expected to behave differently depending on certain
environment variables. For instance, an editor might be expected
to use the `GIT_COMMITTER_NAME` environment variable
when editing a git commit message. The environment is available
to the #GApplication::command-line signal handler, via
g_application_command_line_getenv().
16 or :send_environment
NON_UNIQUE =

Make no attempts to do any of the typical

single-instance application negotiation, even if the application
ID is given.  The application neither attempts to become the
owner of the application ID nor does it check if an existing
owner already exists.  Everything occurs in the local process.
Since: 2.30.
32 or :non_unique
CAN_OVERRIDE_APP_ID =

Allow users to override the

application ID from the command line with `--gapplication-app-id`.
Since: 2.48
64 or :can_override_app_id
ALLOW_REPLACEMENT =

Allow another instance to take over

the bus name. Since: 2.60
128 or :allow_replacement
REPLACE =

Take over from another instance. This flag is

usually set by passing `--gapplication-replace` on the commandline.
Since: 2.60
256 or :replace
