GLib 2.18.4 released

Recommended Posts

GLib 2.18.4 is now available for download at:

 

ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/glib/2.18/

http://download.gnome.org/sources/glib/2.18/

This is a bug fix release in the 2.18 series.

 

GLib is the low-level core library that forms the basis for projects

such as GTK+ and GNOME. 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.

 

More information about GLib is available at:

 

http://www.gtk.org/

 

An installation guide for the GTK+ libraries, including GLib, can

be found at:
