This PR adds a
toString()
method to the Java classes for GType and GVariant for easier printing and debugging.The
Type.toString()
method callsg_type_name()
. It is added on the Type class in GObject, becauseg_type_name
is in the GObject namespace, so it's pretty useless as long as Java-GI is completely built around the Type class in GLib.The
Variant.toString()
method callsg_variant_print(true)
so it displays both the value and the type information.
