One thing I forgot: the plugin API currently exports utils_spawn_[a]sync,
and a few plugins use utils_spawn_sync. These functions were (partially
correct) wrappers around the old glib/win32 spawn, and are now wrappers
around spawn_[a]sync. Someday, in the distant future, they should be
obsoleted...
I get what you're saying but I also
feel uneasy about blanket exporting of APIs with no current users of it,
so we don't know exactly what really needs to be exported.
In a previous post Dimitar has listed the API he requests for his
plugin, so that (at least) should be made available in 1.25. It is
spurious to make him and therefore any potential windows users wait
for another release cycle.
He listed some of the API that is exposed. There's nothing spurious
about being cautious about mass-exporting API that nobody even asks for,
IMO.
Well, with nothing from spawn exported, we can be pretty sure that all
plugins _will_ be using utils_spawn and g_spawn instead. :)
Yes, the argument that nothing uses it is also spurious given the API
only just came into existence.
Nobody made any argument that nobody uses, I just mentioned that nobody
is using it YET (since they could've, as it's all exported for plugins
ATM in Git master), so we could therefore unexpose it without causing
anybody grief. There's nothing spurious going on here.
Cheers,
