/**
	SECTION:server
	@short_description: The representation of the application on DBus.
	@stability: Unstable
	@include: libindicate/server.h

	The server object is the object that provides the functions on
	to DBus for other applications to call.  It does this by implementing
	the DBus indicator spec, but it also allows for subclassing so that
	subclasses don't have to worry about the DBus-isms as much as
	the functionality that they're trying to express.

	For simple applications there is limited need to set anything
	more than the desktop file and the type of the server using
	indicate_server_set_desktop_file() and indicate_server_set_type().
	Each of these function sets the respective value and expresses
	it in a way that other applications on the bus can read it.

	More advanced applications might find the need to subclass the
	#IndicateServer object and make their own.  This is likely the
	case where applications have complex data stores that they don't
	want to turn into a large set of #GObjects that can take up a
	significant amount of memory in the program.

	In general, it is recommended that application authors go with
	the high memory path first, and then optimize by implementing
	their server on a second pass.
