Hey,
In the process of tracking down and fixing the various places we set
GConf keys during login (we shouldn't), I came across these keys:
/desktop/gnome/applications/window_manager/default
/desktop/gnome/applications/window_manager/current
/desktop/gnome/applications/window_manager/number_of_workspaces
/desktop/gnome/applications/window_manager/workspace_names
From what I can make out:
- The schemas are in libgnome/desktop_gnome_applications_window_manager.schemas
- The "default" key is set by gnome-wm script at login to whichever
window manager is run
- The "default" and "current" keys are used in the wm-properties
capplet code. The code just seems like historical cruft that hasn't
been built in a long time, though.
- A copy of the wm-properties code is in libwindow-settings, but
that's not built eiter.
- I can't see the "number_of_workspaces" or "workspace_names" keys
used anywhere anymore.
So, what I'm going to do is:
1) Add deprecation notices to the docs for all of those keys
2) Remove the setting of "default" in gnome-wm
3) Remove the wm-properties code in gnome-control-center/capplets and
libwindow-settings (wm-exec.c, wm-list.c and wm-properties.h) to
avoid any further confusion.
Am I missing something here?
Cheers,
Mark.
