#### Parameters

`app_name`

  The name of the application that should be mapped to a `GAppInfo`; if `NULL` is used then the default application for the MIME type is used.

  The value is a NUL terminated UTF-8 string.

  In case of error, the argument will be set to a newly allocated `GError`; the caller will take ownership of the data, and be responsible for freeing it.
