										 |  |  | This file documents various major decisions which affect GLib development, | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | giving a brief rationale of each decision, plus a link to further discussion. |

							|  |  |  |  * Compiler attributes: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=113075#c46 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |    GLib uses GIR annotations instead of compiler attributes. They are tidier, | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |    already supported by GLib and GNOME tools, and accomplish the same task as | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |    compiler attributes. GLib does not provide macros for attributes like | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |    nonnull because it would not use them. |

							|  |  |  |  * Main loop API: | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |    The ID-based mainloop APIs (g_idle_add, g_timeout_add, etc) are considered | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |    legacy, and new features (such as g_source_set_static_name) will only be | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |    added to the explicit GSource APIs. |
