GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 584388
expose the functionality of xdg_mime_list_mime_parents
Last modified: 2009-07-10 13:38:42 UTC
Sugar is currently shipping with a copy of xdg_mime and we would wish to drop it and use the mime type functionality in Gio instead. All is fine except for the missing equivalent of xdg_mime_list_mime_parents(). Sugar needs that one in order to decide for which activities a given file can serve as a starting point. Do people think that it would make sense to expose that functionality in the gio API? Perhaps as g_content_type_get_supertypes()? I will be glad to propose a patch if people agree with this addition.
