This function should be called by any \code{\link{GVolumeMonitor}}
6
implementation when a new \code{\link{GMount}} object is created that is not
7
associated with a \code{\link{GVolume}} object. It must be called just before
8
emitting the \code{mount.added} signal.

\strong{WARNING: \code{g_volume_monitor_adopt_orphan_mount} has been deprecated since version 2.20 and should not be used in newly-written code. Instead of using this function, \code{\link{GVolumeMonitor}}
10
implementations should instead create shadow mounts with the URI of
11
the mount they intend to adopt. See the proxy volume monitor in
12
gvfs for an example of this. Also see \code{\link{gMountIsShadowed}},
13
\code{\link{gMountShadow}} and \code{\link{gMountUnshadow}} functions.}

\arguments{\item{\verb{mount}}{a \code{\link{GMount}} object to find a parent for}}
17
\details{If the return value is not \code{NULL}, the caller must associate the
18
returned \code{\link{GVolume}} object with the \code{\link{GMount}}. This involves returning
19
it in its \code{\link{gMountGetVolume}} implementation. The caller must
20
also listen for the "removed" signal on the returned object
21
and give up its reference when handling that signal
23
Similary, if implementing \code{\link{gVolumeMonitorAdoptOrphanMount}},
24
the implementor must take a reference to \code{mount} and return it in
25
its \code{\link{gVolumeGetMount}} implemented. Also, the implementor must
26
listen for the "unmounted" signal on \code{mount} and give up its
27
reference upon handling that signal.
29
There are two main use cases for this function.
31
One is when implementing a user space file system driver that reads
32
blocks of a block device that is already represented by the native
33
volume monitor (for example a CD Audio file system driver). Such
34
a driver will generate its own \code{\link{GMount}} object that needs to be
35
assoicated with the \code{\link{GVolume}} object that represents the volume.
37
The other is for implementing a \code{\link{GVolumeMonitor}} whose sole purpose
38
is to return \code{\link{GVolume}} objects representing entries in the users
39
"favorite servers" list or similar.}
40
\value{[\code{\link{GVolume}}] the \code{\link{GVolume}} object that is the parent for \code{mount} or \code{NULL}
41
if no wants to adopt the \code{\link{GMount}}.}
