Declaration

gboolean
g_desktop_app_info_get_show_in (
  GDesktopAppInfo* info,
  const gchar* desktop_env
)

Description

Checks if the application info should be shown in menus that list available applications for a specific name of the desktop, based on the OnlyShowIn and NotShowIn keys.

desktop_env should typically be given as NULL, in which case the XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP environment variable is consulted. If you want to override the default mechanism then you may specify desktop_env, but this is not recommended.

Note that g_app_info_should_show() for info will include this check (with NULL for desktop_env) as well as additional checks.

Available since: 2.30

Return value

Type: gboolean

TRUE if the info should be shown in desktop_env according to the OnlyShowIn and NotShowIn keys, FALSE otherwise.
