RemoteActionGroup

The GRemoteActionGroup interface is implemented by iface@Gio.ActionGroup instances that either transmit action invocations to other processes or receive action invocations in the local process from other processes.

The interface has _full variants of the two methods on iface@Gio.ActionGroup used to activate actions: method@Gio.ActionGroup.activate_action and method@Gio.ActionGroup.change_action_state. These variants allow a ‘platform data’ struct@GLib.Variant to be specified: a dictionary providing context for the action invocation (for example: timestamps, startup notification IDs, etc).

class@Gio.DBusActionGroup implements GRemoteActionGroup. This provides a mechanism to send platform data for action invocations over D-Bus.

Additionally, method@Gio.DBusConnection.export_action_group will check if the exported iface@Gio.ActionGroup implements GRemoteActionGroup and use the _full variants of the calls if available. This provides a mechanism by which to receive platform data for action invocations that arrive by way of D-Bus.
