* SECTION:gvariant
* @title: GVariant
* @short_description: strongly typed value datatype
* @see_also: GVariantType
*
* #GVariant is a variant datatype; it can contain one or more values
* along with information about the type of the values.
*
* A #GVariant may contain simple types, like an integer, or a boolean value;
* or complex types, like an array of two strings, or a dictionary of key
* value pairs. A #GVariant is also immutable: once it's been created neither
* its type nor its content can be modified further.
*
* GVariant is useful whenever data needs to be serialized, for example when
* sending method parameters in DBus, or when saving settings using GSettings.
*
* When creating a new #GVariant, you pass the data you want to store in it
* along with a string representing the type of data you wish to pass to it.
*
* For instance, if you want to create a #GVariant holding an integer value you
* can use:
*
* |[<!-- language="C" -->
* GVariant *v = g_variant_new ("u", 40);
* ]|
*
* The string "u" in the first argument tells #GVariant that the data passed to
* the constructor (40) is going to be an unsigned integer.
*
* More advanced examples of #GVariant in use can be found in documentation for
* [GVariant format strings][gvariant-format-strings-pointers].
*
* The range of possible values is determined by the type.
*
* The type system used by #GVariant is #GVariantType.
*
* #GVariant instances always have a type and a value (which are given
* at construction time). The type and value of a #GVariant instance
* can never change other than by the #GVariant itself being
* destroyed. A #GVariant cannot contain a pointer.
*
* #GVariant is reference counted using g_variant_ref() and
* g_variant_unref(). #GVariant also has floating reference counts --
* see g_variant_ref_sink().
*
* #GVariant is completely threadsafe. A #GVariant instance can be
* concurrently accessed in any way from any number of threads without
* problems.
*
* #GVariant is heavily optimised for dealing with data in serialised
* form. It works particularly well with data located in memory-mapped
* files. It can perform nearly all deserialisation operations in a
* small constant time, usually touching only a single memory page.
* Serialised #GVariant data can also be sent over the network.
*
* #GVariant is largely compatible with D-Bus. Almost all types of
* #GVariant instances can be sent over D-Bus. See #GVariantType for
* exceptions. (However, #GVariant's serialisation format is not the same
* as the serialisation format of a D-Bus message body: use #GDBusMessage,
* in the gio library, for those.)
*
* For space-efficiency, the #GVariant serialisation format does not
* automatically include the variant's length, type or endianness,
* which must either be implied from context (such as knowledge that a
* particular file format always contains a little-endian
* %G_VARIANT_TYPE_VARIANT which occupies the whole length of the file)
* or supplied out-of-band (for instance, a length, type and/or endianness
* indicator could be placed at the beginning of a file, network message
* or network stream).
*
* A #GVariant's size is limited mainly by any lower level operating
* system constraints, such as the number of bits in #gsize. For
* example, it is reasonable to have a 2GB file mapped into memory
* with #GMappedFile, and call g_variant_new_from_data() on it.
*
* For convenience to C programmers, #GVariant features powerful
* varargs-based value construction and destruction. This feature is
* designed to be embedded in other libraries.
*
* There is a Python-inspired text language for describing #GVariant
* values. #GVariant includes a printer for this language and a parser
* with type inferencing.
*
* ## Memory Use
*
* #GVariant tries to be quite efficient with respect to memory use.
* This section gives a rough idea of how much memory is used by the
* current implementation. The information here is subject to change
* in the future.
*
* The memory allocated by #GVariant can be grouped into 4 broad
* purposes: memory for serialised data, memory for the type
* information cache, buffer management memory and memory for the
* #GVariant structure itself.
*
* ## Serialised Data Memory
*
* This is the memory that is used for storing GVariant data in
* serialised form. This is what would be sent over the network or
* what would end up on disk, not counting any indicator of the
* endianness, or of the length or type of the top-level variant.
*
* The amount of memory required to store a boolean is 1 byte. 16,
* 32 and 64 bit integers and double precision floating point numbers
* use their "natural" size. Strings (including object path and
* signature strings) are stored with a nul terminator, and as such
* use the length of the string plus 1 byte.
*
* Maybe types use no space at all to represent the null value and
* use the same amount of space (sometimes plus one byte) as the
* equivalent non-maybe-typed value to represent the non-null case.
*
* Arrays use the amount of space required to store each of their
* members, concatenated. Additionally, if the items stored in an
* array are not of a fixed-size (ie: strings, other arrays, etc)
* then an additional framing offset is stored for each item. The
* size of this offset is either 1, 2 or 4 bytes depending on the
* overall size of the container. Additionally, extra padding bytes
* are added as required for alignment of child values.
*
* Tuples (including dictionary entries) use the amount of space
* required to store each of their members, concatenated, plus one
* framing offset (as per arrays) for each non-fixed-sized item in
* the tuple, except for the last one. Additionally, extra padding
* bytes are added as required for alignment of child values.
*
* Variants use the same amount of space as the item inside of the
* variant, plus 1 byte, plus the length of the type string for the
* item inside the variant.
*
* As an example, consider a dictionary mapping strings to variants.
* In the case that the dictionary is empty, 0 bytes are required for
* the serialisation.
*
* If we add an item "width" that maps to the int32 value of 500 then
* we will use 4 byte to store the int32 (so 6 for the variant
* containing it) and 6 bytes for the string. The variant must be
* aligned to 8 after the 6 bytes of the string, so that's 2 extra
* bytes. 6 (string) + 2 (padding) + 6 (variant) is 14 bytes used
* for the dictionary entry. An additional 1 byte is added to the
* array as a framing offset making a total of 15 bytes.
*
* If we add another entry, "title" that maps to a nullable string
* that happens to have a value of null, then we use 0 bytes for the
* null value (and 3 bytes for the variant to contain it along with
* its type string) plus 6 bytes for the string. Again, we need 2
* padding bytes. That makes a total of 6 + 2 + 3 = 11 bytes.
*
* We now require extra padding between the two items in the array.
* After the 14 bytes of the first item, that's 2 bytes required.
* We now require 2 framing offsets for an extra two
* bytes. 14 + 2 + 11 + 2 = 29 bytes to encode the entire two-item
* dictionary.
*
* ## Type Information Cache
*
* For each GVariant type that currently exists in the program a type
* information structure is kept in the type information cache. The
* type information structure is required for rapid deserialisation.
*
* Continuing with the above example, if a #GVariant exists with the
* type "a{sv}" then a type information struct will exist for
* "a{sv}", "{sv}", "s", and "v". Multiple uses of the same type
* will share the same type information. Additionally, all
* single-digit types are stored in read-only static memory and do
* not contribute to the writable memory footprint of a program using
* #GVariant.
*
* Aside from the type information structures stored in read-only
* memory, there are two forms of type information. One is used for
* container types where there is a single element type: arrays and
* maybe types. The other is used for container types where there
* are multiple element types: tuples and dictionary entries.
*
* Array type info structures are 6 * sizeof (void *), plus the
* memory required to store the type string itself. This means that
* on 32-bit systems, the cache entry for "a{sv}" would require 30
* bytes of memory (plus malloc overhead).
*
* Tuple type info structures are 6 * sizeof (void *), plus 4 *
* sizeof (void *) for each item in the tuple, plus the memory
* required to store the type string itself. A 2-item tuple, for
* example, would have a type information structure that consumed
* writable memory in the size of 14 * sizeof (void *) (plus type
* string) This means that on 32-bit systems, the cache entry for
* "{sv}" would require 61 bytes of memory (plus malloc overhead).
*
* This means that in total, for our "a{sv}" example, 91 bytes of
* type information would be allocated.
*
* The type information cache, additionally, uses a #GHashTable to
* store and lookup the cached items and stores a pointer to this
* hash table in static storage. The hash table is freed when there
* are zero items in the type cache.
*
* Although these sizes may seem large it is important to remember
* that a program will probably only have a very small number of
* different types of values in it and that only one type information
* structure is required for many different values of the same type.
*
* ## Buffer Management Memory
*
* #GVariant uses an internal buffer management structure to deal
* with the various different possible sources of serialised data
* that it uses. The buffer is responsible for ensuring that the
* correct call is made when the data is no longer in use by
* #GVariant. This may involve a g_free() or a g_slice_free() or
* even g_mapped_file_unref().
*
* One buffer management structure is used for each chunk of
* serialised data. The size of the buffer management structure
* is 4 * (void *). On 32-bit systems, that's 16 bytes.
*
* ## GVariant structure
*
* The size of a #GVariant structure is 6 * (void *). On 32-bit
* systems, that's 24 bytes.
*
* #GVariant structures only exist if they are explicitly created
* with API calls. For example, if a #GVariant is constructed out of
* serialised data for the example given above (with the dictionary)
* then although there are 9 individual values that comprise the
* entire dictionary (two keys, two values, two variants containing
* the values, two dictionary entries, plus the dictionary itself),
* only 1 #GVariant instance exists -- the one referring to the
* dictionary.
*
* If calls are made to start accessing the other values then
* #GVariant instances will exist for those values only for as long
* as they are in use (ie: until you call g_variant_unref()). The
* type information is shared. The serialised data and the buffer
* management structure for that serialised data is shared by the
* child.
*
* ## Summary
*
* To put the entire example together, for our dictionary mapping
* strings to variants (with two entries, as given above), we are
* using 91 bytes of memory for type information, 29 bytes of memory
* for the serialised data, 16 bytes for buffer management and 24
* bytes for the #GVariant instance, or a total of 160 bytes, plus
* malloc overhead. If we were to use g_variant_get_child_value() to
* access the two dictionary entries, we would use an additional 48
* bytes. If we were to have other dictionaries of the same type, we
* would use more memory for the serialised data and buffer
* management for those dictionaries, but the type information would
* be shared.

/**
* GVariantDict:
*
* #GVariantDict is a mutable interface to #GVariant dictionaries.
*
* It can be used for doing a sequence of dictionary lookups in an
* efficient way on an existing #GVariant dictionary or it can be used
* to construct new dictionaries with a hashtable-like interface. It
* can also be used for taking existing dictionaries and modifying them
* in order to create new ones.
*
* #GVariantDict can only be used with %G_VARIANT_TYPE_VARDICT
* dictionaries.
*
* It is possible to use #GVariantDict allocated on the stack or on the
* heap. When using a stack-allocated #GVariantDict, you begin with a
* call to g_variant_dict_init() and free the resources with a call to
* g_variant_dict_clear().
*
* Heap-allocated #GVariantDict follows normal refcounting rules: you
* allocate it with g_variant_dict_new() and use g_variant_dict_ref()
* and g_variant_dict_unref().
*
* g_variant_dict_end() is used to convert the #GVariantDict back into a
* dictionary-type #GVariant. When used with stack-allocated instances,
* this also implicitly frees all associated memory, but for
* heap-allocated instances, you must still call g_variant_dict_unref()
* afterwards.
*
* You will typically want to use a heap-allocated #GVariantDict when
* you expose it as part of an API. For most other uses, the
* stack-allocated form will be more convenient.
*
* Consider the following two examples that do the same thing in each
* style: take an existing dictionary and look up the "count" uint32
* key, adding 1 to it if it is found, or returning an error if the
* key is not found. Each returns the new dictionary as a floating
* #GVariant.

*
* - leaf format string
* these result in the collection of a single argument.
*
* Leaf format strings are further subdivided into two categories:
*
* - single non-null pointer ("nnp")
* these either collect or return a single non-null pointer.
*
* - other
* these collect or return something else (bool, number, etc).
*
* Based on the above, the varargs handling code is split into 4 main parts:
*
* - nnp handling code
* - leaf handling code (which may invoke nnp code)
* - generic handling code (may be recursive, may invoke leaf code)
* - user-facing API (which invokes the generic code)
*
* Each section implements some of the following functions:
*
* - skip:
* collect the arguments for the format string as if
* g_variant_new() had been called, but do nothing with them. used
* for skipping over arguments when constructing a Nothing maybe
* type.
*
* - new:
* create a GVariant *
*
* - get:
* unpack a GVariant *
*
* - free (nnp only):
* free a previously allocated item

*
* For most cases you should use g_variant_iter_next().
*
* This function is really only useful when unpacking into #GVariant or
* #GVariantIter in order to allow you to skip the call to
* g_variant_unref() or g_variant_iter_free().
*
* For example, if you are only looping over simple integer and string
* types, g_variant_iter_next() is definitely preferred. For string
* types, use the '&' prefix to avoid allocating any memory at all (and
* thereby avoiding the need to free anything as well).
