Emitted when a method is invoked by a remote caller and used to
determine if the method call is authorized.
Note that this signal is emitted in a thread dedicated to
handling the method call so handlers are allowed to perform
blocking IO. This means that it is appropriate to call
e.g. polkit_authority_check_authorization_sync()
with the POLKIT_CHECK_AUTHORIZATION_FLAGS_ALLOW_USER_INTERACTION flag set.
If FALSE is returned then no further handlers are run and the
signal handler must take a reference to invocation and finish
handling the call (e.g. return an error via
g_dbus_method_invocation_return_error()).
Otherwise, if TRUE is returned, signal emission continues. If no
handlers return FALSE, then the method is dispatched. If
interface has an enclosing GDBusObjectSkeleton, then the
"authorize-method" signal handlers run before
the handlers for this signal.
The default class handler just returns TRUE.
Please note that the common case is optimized: if no signals
handlers are connected and the default class handler isn't
overridden (for both interface and the enclosing
GDBusObjectSkeleton, if any) and "g-flags" does
not have the
G_DBUS_INTERFACE_SKELETON_FLAGS_HANDLE_METHOD_INVOCATIONS_IN_THREAD
flags set, no dedicated thread is ever used and the call will be
handled in the same thread as the object that interface belongs
to was exported in.
TRUE if the call is authorized, FALSE otherwise.
