PSARC/2008/199 libhal support for GNOME 2.22
GNOME 2.22 is coming to Nevada. A new component, GVFS, relies on
some trivial libhal functions that debuted in HAL 0.5.10, functions
to retrieve values from property sets. ONNV includes HAL 0.5.8.
Although a full-blown upgrade to the latest HAL is in the works,
it will take some time. We propose to backport the missing libhal
functions as a temporary relief, not to hold up desktop development:
libhal_ps_get_type Get type of property
libhal_ps_get_string Get value of a string property
libhal_ps_get_int32 Get value of an int32 property
libhal_ps_get_uint64 Get value of an uint64 property
libhal_ps_get_double Get value of a double property
libhal_ps_get_bool Get value of a boolean property
libhal_ps_get_strlist Get value of a string list property
