alsa-project/alsa-gobject pull request #17 was opened from takaswie:

In UAPI for ALSA Sequencer, snd_seq_timestamp is union with snd_seq_tick_time_t and struct snd_seq_real_time types. The libalsaseq has GLib Boxed object for the union, named as ALSASeqTstamp.

``` $ cat build/src/seq/ALSASeq-0.0.gir ... <union name="Tstamp" c:type="ALSASeqTstamp" glib:type-name="ALSASeqTstamp" glib:get-type="alsaseq_tstamp_get_type" c:symbol-prefix="tstamp"> <source-position filename="../src/seq/tstamp.h" line="14"/> ... </union> ... ```

Although this is valid in a view of GObject Introspection, it's not necessarily convenient to language bindings because some programming language doesn't support union type. In this case, the type is not available.

This commit adds an alternative structure to wrap the union. As a result, ALSASeqTstamp is GLib Boxed object for the wrapper structure.

``` $ cat build/src/seq/ALSASeq-0.0.gir ... <record name="Tstamp" c:type="ALSASeqTstamp" glib:type-name="ALSASeqTstamp" glib:get-type="alsaseq_tstamp_get_type" c:symbol-prefix="tstamp"> <source-position filename="../src/seq/tstamp.h" line="18"/> <field name="tstamp" writable="1"> <type name="gpointer" c:type="snd_seq_timestamp"/> </field> ... </record> ... ```
