<title>Introduction</title>

<para>
|
|
Most modern programming languages come with their own native object
|
|
systems and additional fundamental algorithmic language constructs.
|
|
Just as GLib serves as an implementation of such fundamental
|
|
types and algorithms (linked lists, hash tables and so forth), the
|
|
GLib Object System provides the required implementations of a
|
|
flexible extensible and intentionally easy to map (into other
|
|
languages) object-oriented framework for C.
|
|
The substantial elements that are provided can be summarized as:
|
|
<itemizedlist>
|
|
<listitem><para>
|
|
A generic type system to register arbitrary single-inherited
|
|
flat and deep derived types as well as interfaces for
|
|
structured types.
|
|
It takes care of creation, initialization and memory management
|
|
of the assorted object and class structures, maintains
|
|
parent/child relationships and deals with dynamic implementations
|
|
of such types. That is, their type specific implementations are
|
|
relocatable/unloadable during runtime.
|
|
</para></listitem>
|
|
<listitem><para>
|
|
A collection of fundamental type implementations, such as integers,
|
|
doubles, enums and structured types, to name a few.
|
|
</para></listitem>
|
|
<listitem><para>
|
|
A sample fundamental type implementation to base object hierarchies
|
|
upon - the GObject fundamental type.
|
|
</para></listitem>
|
|
<listitem><para>
|
|
A signal system that allows very flexible user customization of
|
|
virtual/overridable object methods and can serve as a powerful
|
|
notification mechanism.
|
|
</para></listitem>
|
|
<listitem><para>
|
|
An extensible parameter/value system, supporting all the provided
|
|
fundamental types that can be used to generically handle object
|
|
properties or otherwise parameterized types.
