Good idea. I'd just make one change - always create the GFile no matter whether GIO is enabled or not. The problem is GIO can be enabled/disabled in preferences at any time so we'd have to nullify/set the field based on the settings, plugins would have to always check it for NULL and it would introduce just complications. Better to have something like the utils_use_gio() and whoever wants to use the GFile should use the utils_use_gio() or know what he is doing. > That would re-use the same link all the way, and possibly might prevent some > oddies when loading from an URI and writing to a path (when gvfs-fuse is > available) -- I doubt it should be a problem, but still, could be suboptimal > I guess. I hope when using GIO consistently this shouldn't happen. Anyway, the problem with mtime we had was quite unique I believe and shouldn't happen when e.g. just testing file existence. --- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
