  2.84.0

2025-03-08  Kjell Ahlstedt  <kjellahlstedt@gmail.com>

  Small fixes to better fit glib 2.84

  * configure.ac:
  * meson.build: Require glib >= 2.83.4.
  * gio/src/dbusconnection.hg: Add an _IGNORE().
  * glib/glibmm/class.cc:
  * glib/glibmm/interface.cc: g_type_default_interface_ref() -> ..._get().
  Remove call to g_type_default_interface_unref(). It's a no-op.
  * glib/glibmm/object.cc: g_type_class_ref() -> g_type_class_get().
  Remove call to  g_type_class_unref(). It's a no-op.

  Glib::spawn_*() doc: Suppress erroneous links

  * glib/src/spawn.hg: Doxygen generates strange links from "exec()",
  "main()", etc. Suppress the links with "%exec()", "%main()", etc.
  Remove references to non-existent gdk_spawn_on_screen() and
  spawn_on_screen_with_pipes().

  README.win32.md: Add note on %PATH% for Python

  This helps working around woes that arise from accidentally picking up
  the Python installation that comes from MSYS/MSYS64 or Cygwin, as we
  need tools from them to perform a maintainer build or a build from a GIT
  checkout.

  Meson: Use python[.exe] to check for Python for MSVC

  ...and MSVC-style builds, as we might accidentally pull in the 'python3'
  executable from Cygwin or MSYS2, especially if a maintainer build (i.e.
  GIT checkout) build is being used, which can cause confusion and/or
  trouble, as they expect different PATH conventions.
  
  If we want, we can always go back to using the Python module from Meson
  to look for the Python installation that is used to invoke Meson.
  
  The stock Python Windows installers from www.python.org ship with
  'python.exe', not 'python3.exe'.

  tests: Fix running on Windows 11

  Windows 11 deprecated and removed WordPad in the 24H2 update[1], meaning
  the "c:/Windows/write.exe" path is no longer applicable.
  
  Use the venerable NotePad instead here to make sure things continue to
  work, ie. "c:/Windows/notepad.exe".
