Overview

Glib is a general-purpose utility library, which provides many useful data types, macros, type conversions, string utilities, file utilities, a main loop abstraction, and so on. It works on many UNIX-like platforms, Windows, OS/2, and BeOS. Glib is released under the GNU Library General Public License (GNU LGPL).

The general policy of Glib is that all functions are invisibly thread-safe with the exception of data structure manipulation functions, where, two threads manipulating the same data structure, must use a lock to synchronize their operation.

The source reference for original glib pages was taken from www.gtk.org.
