Merge lp:~raof/do/do.platform-autostart into lp:do

This fixes autostart in a platform-independent way.

Currently, we handle autostart by just adding and deleting gnome-do.desktop from ~/.config/autostart/ in the Preferences dialog. This is obviously not platform-neutral, and is wrong even in GNOME - when there's an autostart file in /etc/xdg/autostart, deleting the file in ~/.config/autostart doesn't prevent autostart.

This branch fixes these issues by adding and AutostartService with an XdgAutostartService implemented in Do.Platform.Linux. This uses Gnome.DesktopItem to toggle the Hidden key in the autostart file.

Remove OnlyShowIn=GNOME. Do works just fine in KDE and XFCE

[David Siegel (djsiegel-deactivatedaccount)]

I highly suggest using AbstractSystemService for autostart features instead of creating a new service.

s/IAutostartService/AbstractAutoStartService
s/Autostart/AutoStart

Remove System.IO prefixes in XdgAutostartService.

Move autostart handling into SystemService

This is what I was looking for initially!

Use more Gnome.DesktopItem functionality.

Use DesktopItem's file writing and existance testing, and construct the initial DesktopItem from the resource string

1012. By Chris Halse Rogers on 2009-02-17

Catch possible exceptions in writing the initial autostart desktop file

1013. By Chris Halse Rogers on 2009-02-17

Remove XdgAutostartService from Do.Platform.Linux addin.xml

1014. By Chris Halse Rogers on 2009-02-17

C# thinks explicit is better than implicit; Explicitly override IsAutoStartEnabled & SetAutoStart

1015. By Chris Halse Rogers on 2009-02-17

DesktopItem.NewFromUri throws an exception when the desktop file doesn't exist. Catch this to write out the initial file instead

Embed gnome-do.desktop as a resource in Do.Platform.Linux, as that's where it's used

1017. By Chris Halse Rogers on 2009-02-17

Remove last vestiges of Autostart handling from GeneralPreferencesWidget

1018. By Chris Halse Rogers on 2009-02-17

Update MonoDevelop project

[Chris Halse Rogers (raof)]

Autostart is now handled in SystemService. Please re-review.

s/SetAutoStart/SetAutoStartEnabled

Make AutoStartFile a method, since it's expensive, and cache the result in the Service instance? If you cache it, you can keep it as a property.

[David Siegel (djsiegel-deactivatedaccount)]

Looks good to me.

Cache AutoStartFile

SetAutoStart ⇒ SetAutoStartEnabled

Stop embedding gnome-do.desktop as a resource.

Move gnome-do.desktop.in to data/, and stop embedding it in Do.exe and Do.Platform.Linux. This was breaking 'make distcheck', and was only really working by accident before these changes

Load a gnome-do.desktop file that we know will exist, because we install it there
