 * @short_description: Struct representing a struct with a GType
 *
 * GIRegisteredTypeInfo represents an entity with a GType associated.
 *
 * Could be either a #GIEnumInfo, #GIInterfaceInfo, #GIObjectInfo,
 * #GIStructInfo or a #GIUnionInfo.
 *
 * A registered type info struct has a name and a type function.
 *
 * To get the name call g_registered_type_info_get_type_name().
 * Most users want to call g_registered_type_info_get_g_type() and don't worry
 * about the rest of the details.
