Datasets
<!-- ##### SECTION Short_Description ##### -->
associate groups of data elements with particular memory locations
<!-- ##### SECTION Long_Description ##### -->
<para>
Datasets associate groups of data elements with particular memory locations.
These are useful if you need to associate data with a structure returned
from an external library. Since you cannot modify the structure, you use
its location in memory as the key into a dataset, where you can associate
any number of data elements with it.
</para>
<para>
There are two forms of most of the dataset functions.
The first form uses strings to identify the data elements associated with
a location. The second form uses #GQuark identifiers, which are created
with a call to g_quark_from_string() or g_quark_from_static_string().
The second form is quicker, since it does not require looking up the string
in the hash table of #GQuark identifiers.
</para>
<para>
There is no function to create a dataset. It is automatically created as
soon as you add elements to it.
</para>
<para>
To add data elements to a dataset use g_dataset_id_set_data(),
g_dataset_id_set_data_full(), g_dataset_set_data()
and g_dataset_set_data_full().

<!-- ##### SECTION Title ##### -->
Quarks
<!-- ##### SECTION Short_Description ##### -->
a 2-way association between a string and a unique integer identifier
<!-- ##### SECTION Long_Description ##### -->
<para>
Quarks are associations between strings and integer identifiers.
Given either the string or the #GQuark identifier it is possible to
retrieve the other.
</para>
<para>
Quarks are used for both
<link linkend="glib-datasets">Datasets</link> and
<link linkend="glib-keyed-data-lists">Keyed Data Lists</link>.
</para>
<para>
To create a new quark from a string, use g_quark_from_string() or
g_quark_from_static_string().
</para>
<para>
To find the string corresponding to a given #GQuark, use g_quark_to_string().
</para>
<para>
To find the #GQuark corresponding to a given string, use g_quark_try_string().
</para>
<para>
Another use for the string pool maintained for the quark functions is string
interning, using g_intern_string() or g_intern_static_string(). An interned string
is a canonical representation for a string. One important advantage of interned strings
is that they can be compared for equality by a simple pointer comparision, rather than
using strcmp().
</para>

<!-- ##### SECTION Stability_Level ##### -->
<!-- ##### TYPEDEF GQuark ##### -->
<para>
A GQuark is a non-zero integer which uniquely identifies a particular string.
A GQuark value of zero is associated to %NULL.
</para>
<!-- ##### FUNCTION g_quark_from_string ##### -->
<para>
Gets the #GQuark identifying the given string.
If the string does not currently have an associated #GQuark, a new
#GQuark is created, using a copy of the string.
</para>
@string: a string.
@Returns: the #GQuark identifying the string, or 0 if @string is %NULL.
<!-- ##### FUNCTION g_quark_from_static_string ##### -->
<para>
Gets the #GQuark identifying the given (static) string.
If the string does not currently have an associated #GQuark, a new
#GQuark is created, linked to the given string.
</para>
<para>
Note that this function is identical to g_quark_from_string() except
that if a new #GQuark is created the string itself is used rather than
a copy. This saves memory, but can only be used if the string will
<emphasis>always</emphasis> exist. It can be used with statically
allocated strings in the main program, but not with statically
allocated memory in dynamically loaded modules, if you expect to
ever unload the module again (e.g. do not use this function in
GTK+ theme engines).
</para>
@string: a string.
@Returns: the #GQuark identifying the string, or 0 if @string is %NULL.

Gets the #GQuark associated with the given string, or 0 if string is

If you want the GQuark to be created if it doesn't already exist, use
g_quark_from_string() or g_quark_from_static_string().

* @short_description: a 2-way association between a string and a
* unique integer identifier
*
* Quarks are associations between strings and integer identifiers.
* Given either the string or the #GQuark identifier it is possible to
* retrieve the other.
*
* Quarks are used for both <link
* linkend="glib-datasets">Datasets</link> and <link
* linkend="glib-keyed-data-lists">Keyed Data Lists</link>.
*
* To create a new quark from a string, use g_quark_from_string() or
* g_quark_from_static_string().
*
* To find the string corresponding to a given #GQuark, use
* g_quark_to_string().
*
* To find the #GQuark corresponding to a given string, use
* g_quark_try_string().
*
* Another use for the string pool maintained for the quark functions
* is string interning, using g_intern_string() or
* g_intern_static_string(). An interned string is a canonical
* representation for a string. One important advantage of interned
* strings is that they can be compared for equality by a simple
* pointer comparision, rather than using strcmp().
