Sorry, should be "that much" of course. For example, in

https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/ch01s04.html

they have

static void
example_app_class_init (ExampleAppClass *class)
{
  G_APPLICATION_CLASS (class)->activate = example_app_activate;
  G_APPLICATION_CLASS (class)->open = example_app_open;
}


So example_app_open() is called when the application is started with
arguments and example_app_activate() when started without. There is no
direct reference to any signals.

Unfortunately your example is in Vala, so we can not be sure that the
problem is not vala specific.


I will see if I can find some C code for testing...
