Iterate user table in a sorted way, fix tests with latest glib
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This is primarily to help test cases which assume that the adopted algorithm
prioritizes the users in the exact reverse order they appear in the test
cases (and get inserted into the session in reverse order). With older glib
version, the five users being inserted happened to return the order expected by
the tests. With latest glib, due to a minor tweak in hashing strategy, the
insertion leads to unsorted list leading to failed tests.

In addition, GHashTable makes no guarantees about the stability of items when
iterating multiple times. Since the algorithm is sensitive to order of users, it
is best to return users in an order that is consistent over multiple calls and
stable over insert/remove operations.

This patch sorts the keys during iteration of users in the user table.

Closes: gobby#22.
