Fedora 36: Beta Testing

[MisterGuinness]

Yes, yet again I see F36 has been out a couple of weeks

Hopefully just need to add "42" to the shell version list... the answer to everything!

First round of F36 Beta testing gives me a gift

After switching the two classes used to ES6 style (wrapped in GObject.RegisterClass), the extension works fine.

I like the approach of splitting the class and wrapping based on shell version

There's a few syntactic differences, like this.parent becoming super._init, and what look like js object method definitions as opposed to class methods, for example

Lang.Class	GObject.RegisterClass
getLabel: function(){	getLabel() {
return this._label;	return this._label;
}	}

According to this page Fedora 27 introduced GJS 1.50, which this page indicates was the first to implement ES6 classes.

That's back in 2017.

F36 officially released, so need to do some testing on it before closing this issue.
