service_name

A string representing the name of the service suggested to handle this file transfer channel, or null if the initiator did not provide one.

This is a useful way of requesting file transfer channels with a hint of what handler they should be handled by on the remote side. If a channel request is made with this property set (to a contact who also supports the metadata extension; see the requestable channel classes for said contact), this property will be set to the same value on the remote incoming channel and handlers can match on this in their handler filter. For example, a remote handler could call the following:

tp_base_client_take_handler_filter (handler, tp_asv_new (
							TP_PROP_CHANNEL_CHANNEL_TYPE, G_TYPE_STRING, TP_IFACE_CHANNEL_TYPE_FILE_TRANSFER,
							TP_PROP_CHANNEL_TARGET_HANDLE_TYPE, G_TYPE_UINT, TP_HANDLE_TYPE_CONTACT,
							TP_PROP_CHANNEL_REQUESTED, G_TYPE_BOOLEAN, FALSE,
							TP_PROP_CHANNEL_INTERFACE_FILE_TRANSFER_METADATA_SERVICE_NAME, G_TYPE_STRING, "service.name",
							NULL));

The TP_FILE_TRANSFER_CHANNEL_FEATURE_CORE feature has to be prepared for this property to be meaningful.
