Some code using GLib (gnome-keyring-daemon, for example) assumes that they can catch signals by masking them out in the main thread and calling sigwait() from a worker. The problem is that our new worker thread catches the signals before sigwait() has a chance and the default action occurs (typically resulting in program termination). If we mask all the signals in our worker, then this can't happen.
This package contains the reference documentation for GLib. For more information about Glib, see: http://www.gtk.org For information about contributing to the GLib/GTK+ reference documentation project, see: http://www.gtk.org/rdp/ The GLib reference documentation is freely redistributable, see the file COPYING for details. REQUIREMENTS ============ To build the documentation, you must have the gtk-doc package installed. To rebuild the template files, you must have the current version of the GLib header files installed. BUILD ===== First, run configure to generate the makefiles for this module. There is one option specific to this package --with-html-dir=DIR top of installed HTML documentation tree The Makefiles for this module define three targets: templates: Scan the headers and merge the results with the current template files sgml: Generate SGML files using the DocBook DTD from the template files html: Generate HTML from the SGML files. To build the documentation, do: make sgml make html You should only run the 'make templates' step if you need to regenerate the templates for a more recent version of the GLib sources. INSTALLATION ============ make install
