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.
