Tim Janik 617332234d destruction cleanup. there's one ->finalize_hook member in the hooklist
Thu Mar  8 16:23:34 2001  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

        * ghook.[hc]: destruction cleanup. there's one
        ->finalize_hook member in the hooklist now that gets
        called when a hook should be destroyed, that's it.
        that function is guarranteed to be called only when
        all ref_counts to the hook vanished, thus also when
        the hook is not in call.

Thu Mar  8 16:35:48 2001  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

        * gparamspecs.[hc]: s/g_param_spec_string_c/g_param_spec_stringc/.

        * gsignal.[hc]: fixed accumulator invocation, implemented emission
        hooks. and no, neither of these callbacks are called via a closure,
        language bindings can wrap the accumulator and emission hook
        interface, they already get parameters marshalled into a GValue array.
        (g_signal_connect): removed this function as its C specific, doesn't
        cover the swapped argument, is too close to its broken original
        gtk_signal_connect() and creates demand for _swapped, _after and
        _swapped_after variants <brrr>.
        (g_signal_connectc): convenience macro to connect a C handler
        func with data, like the old g_signal_connect() plus swapped
        argument.

        * gtype.h:
        * gboxed.c: added G_TYPE_VALUE boxed type.

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
