Hello,

Whenever I run something like

file.mount\_enclosing\_volume 0, mop

I get

Exception `TypeError’ at gfselect.rb:53 - GMountMountFlags is not a  
GFlags

passing in the GLib ‘NONE’ constant does not make any difference.

Any solution?

virtual filesystem - binaries  
gio2 (1.0.0)

Thanks

Michal

This has been fixed in SVN.

I don’t understand.

Why is GMountMountFlags not a GFlags but GFIleQueryInfoFlags is?

Where is that defined?

```
    G_DEF_CLASS(G_TYPE_MOUNT_MOUNT_FLAGS, "MountFlags", mount);
    G_DEF_CONSTANTS(mount, G_TYPE_MOUNT_MOUNT_FLAGS, "G_MOUNT_");

```

#define RVAL2GMOUNTMOUNTFLAGS(value)   
RVAL2GFLAGS((value), G\_TYPE\_MOUNT\_MOUNT\_FLAGS)  
#define RVAL2GMOUNTMOUNTFLAGSDEFAULT(value)   
RVAL2TYPE\_WITH\_DEFAULT((value),   
RVAL2GMOUNTMOUNTFLAGS,   
G\_MOUNT\_MOUNT\_NONE)

```
    G_DEF_CLASS(G_TYPE_FILE_QUERY_INFO_FLAGS, "QueryInfoFlags", 

```

file);  
G\_DEF\_CONSTANTS(file, G\_TYPE\_FILE\_QUERY\_INFO\_FLAGS, “G\_FILE\_”);  
#define RVAL2GFILEMONITORFLAGSDEFAULT(value)   
RVAL2TYPE\_WITH\_DEFAULT((value),   
RVAL2GFILEMONITORFLAGS,   
G\_FILE\_MONITOR\_NONE)

#define RVAL2GFILEQUERYINFOFLAGS(value)   
RVAL2GFLAGS((value), G\_TYPE\_FILE\_QUERY\_INFO\_FLAGS)

Oh, now I can see I guess 😉

Thanks

Yeah, I know. It’s an unfortunate naming, I think. Perhaps this will  
change once GMountMountFlags gains flags beyond NONE.
