EActivity now uses a GCancellable to manage cancellations, instead of
having its own redundant cancellation API. API changes are as follows:
+ e_activity_get_cancellable()
+ e_activity_set_cancellable()
- e_activity_cancel()
- e_activity_is_cancelled()
- e_activity_get_allow_cancel()
- e_activity_set_allow_cancel()
EActivity's "cancelled" signal remains, but only as a repeater for
GCancellable::cancelled signals. It should not be emitted directly.
The presence of a GCancellable implies that cancellation is allowed.
EActivity does not create its own default GCancellable, it has to be
given one.
If a CamelOperation (cast as a GCancellable) is given, EActivity will
configure itself to listen for status updates from the CamelOperation
and propagate the information to its own "primary-text" and "percent"
properties.
These changes allowed me to start cleaning up some of the incredibly
convoluted logic in mail-mt.c -- in particular, mail_operation_status()
is completely gone now. mail-mt.c is still in a transitional state --
much more significant changes coming soon.
