Hi, I'm writing a nautlus-menu-provider C extension, with libnautilus-extension; and my file items works perfectly, but I have a problem with background items. Let's tell the story.
I (of course) need Nautilus' window and the list of selected files/directories to work on when the user activates my menu item. To do so, I managed to attach data to the menu item (with g_object_set_data_full()) and get it in my NautilusMenuItem::activate handler. This works perfectly for the files item (the items I send in response to get_file_items()) - I don't have to care about multiple nautilus windows at all, it would even support multiple menus poped up at once. But with background items, it doesn't seems to be that simple: the NautilusFileInfo I have attached to the menu item is NULL. After a little time at tracking the problem, I finally saw that get_background_items() is called more than once for a single directory, and that the passed NautilusFileInfo is not NULL only once; And the time it is set is not the one that generates the item that Nautilus actually use. Then my questions: Is this indented (and if yes, why?) or is it a subtle bug somewhere? How extensions are supposed to handle this? Thanks by advance!
