It provides data structure handling for C, portability wrappers, and interfaces for such runtime functionality as an event loop, threads, dynamic loading, and an object system. GLib 2.22 is a stable release adding an incremental improvement in functionality over GLib 2.20 while maintaining binary and source compatibility. Major new features include: * GArray, GPtrArray, GByteArray, GTree and GMappedFile can be reference counted. * GLib can be forced to reload the XDG user directory mapping. * The GLib mainloop supports per-thread default contexts. * GIO now provides types and methods for IP addresses and UNIX domain socket addresses. * GResolver provides asynchronous and cancellable APIs for resolving hostnames, reverse lookup of IP addresses and resolving SRV records. * Support for network IO has been added to GIO, including low-level socket API and high-level API for network connections and services. * GIOStream and its subclasses have gained support for read-write access. * GIO supports starting and stopping of drives, which can be used in connection with external hard disk enclosures, disk arrays, iSCSI devices, etc. * GIO supports user interaction during unmount and eject operations. * GIO can store and retrieve per-file metadata.
