-<a name="glib-Threads.description"></a><h2>Description</h2>
-<p>
-Threads act almost like processes, but unlike processes all threads
-of one process share the same memory. This is good, as it provides
-easy communication between the involved threads via this shared
-memory, and it is bad, because strange things (so called
-"Heisenbugs") might happen if the program is not carefully designed.
-In particular, due to the concurrent nature of threads, no
-assumptions on the order of execution of code running in different
-threads can be made, unless order is explicitly forced by the
-programmer through synchronization primitives.
-</p>
-<p>
-The aim of the thread related functions in GLib is to provide a
-portable means for writing multi-threaded software. There are
-primitives for mutexes to protect the access to portions of memory
-(<a class="link" href="glib-Threads.html#GMutex" title="GMutex"><span class="type">GMutex</span></a>, <a class="link" href="glib-Threads.html#GStaticMutex" title="GStaticMutex"><span class="type">GStaticMutex</span></a>, <a class="link" href="glib-Threads.html#G-LOCK-DEFINE:CAPS" title="G_LOCK_DEFINE()"><span class="type">G_LOCK_DEFINE</span></a>, <a class="link" href="glib-Threads.html#GStaticRecMutex" title="GStaticRecMutex"><span class="type">GStaticRecMutex</span></a> and
-<a class="link" href="glib-Threads.html#GStaticRWLock" title="GStaticRWLock"><span class="type">GStaticRWLock</span></a>). There are primitives for condition variables to
-allow synchronization of threads (<a class="link" href="glib-Threads.html#GCond" title="GCond"><span class="type">GCond</span></a>).  There are primitives for
-thread-private data - data that every thread has a private instance
-of (<a class="link" href="glib-Threads.html#GPrivate" title="GPrivate"><span class="type">GPrivate</span></a>, <a class="link" href="glib-Threads.html#GStaticPrivate" title="GStaticPrivate"><span class="type">GStaticPrivate</span></a>). Last but definitely not least there
-are primitives to portably create and manage threads (<a class="link" href="glib-Threads.html#GThread" title="GThread"><span class="type">GThread</span></a>).
-</p>
-<p>
-The threading system is initialized with <a class="link" href="glib-Threads.html#g-thread-init" title="g_thread_init ()"><code class="function">g_thread_init()</code></a>, which
-takes an optional custom thread implementation or <a class="link" href="glib-Standard-Macros.html#NULL:CAPS" title="NULL"><code class="literal">NULL</code></a> for the
-default implementation. If you want to call <a class="link" href="glib-Threads.html#g-thread-init" title="g_thread_init ()"><code class="function">g_thread_init()</code></a> with a
-non-<a class="link" href="glib-Standard-Macros.html#NULL:CAPS" title="NULL"><code class="literal">NULL</code></a> argument this must be done before executing any other GLib
-functions (except <a class="link" href="glib-Memory-Allocation.html#g-mem-set-vtable" title="g_mem_set_vtable ()"><code class="function">g_mem_set_vtable()</code></a>). This is a requirement even if
-no threads are in fact ever created by the process.
-</p>
-<p>
-Calling <a class="link" href="glib-Threads.html#g-thread-init" title="g_thread_init ()"><code class="function">g_thread_init()</code></a> with a <a class="link" href="glib-Standard-Macros.html#NULL:CAPS" title="NULL"><code class="literal">NULL</code></a> argument is somewhat more
-relaxed. You may call any other glib functions in the main thread
-before <a class="link" href="glib-Threads.html#g-thread-init" title="g_thread_init ()"><code class="function">g_thread_init()</code></a> as long as <a class="link" href="glib-Threads.html#g-thread-init" title="g_thread_init ()"><code class="function">g_thread_init()</code></a> is not called from
-a glib callback, or with any locks held. However, many libraries
-above glib does not support late initialization of threads, so doing
-this should be avoided if possible.
-</p>
-<p>
-Please note that since version 2.24 the GObject initialization
-function <a href="http://library.gnome.org/devel/gobject/unstable/gobject-Type-Information.html#g-type-init"><code class="function">g_type_init()</code></a> initializes threads (with a <a class="link" href="glib-Standard-Macros.html#NULL:CAPS" title="NULL"><code class="literal">NULL</code></a> argument),
-so most applications, including those using Gtk+ will run with
-threads enabled. If you want a special thread implementation, make
-sure you call <a class="link" href="glib-Threads.html#g-thread-init" title="g_thread_init ()"><code class="function">g_thread_init()</code></a> before <a href="http://library.gnome.org/devel/gobject/unstable/gobject-Type-Information.html#g-type-init"><code class="function">g_type_init()</code></a> is called.
-</p>
-<p>
-After calling <a class="link" href="glib-Threads.html#g-thread-init" title="g_thread_init ()"><code class="function">g_thread_init()</code></a>, GLib is completely thread safe (all
-global data is automatically locked), but individual data structure
-instances are not automatically locked for performance reasons. So,
-for example you must coordinate accesses to the same <a class="link" href="glib-Hash-Tables.html#GHashTable" title="GHashTable"><span class="type">GHashTable</span></a>
-from multiple threads.  The two notable exceptions from this rule
-are <a class="link" href="glib-The-Main-Event-Loop.html#GMainLoop" title="GMainLoop"><span class="type">GMainLoop</span></a> and <a class="link" href="glib-Asynchronous-Queues.html#GAsyncQueue" title="GAsyncQueue"><span class="type">GAsyncQueue</span></a>, which <span class="emphasis"><em>are</em></span>
-threadsafe and need no further application-level locking to be
-accessed from multiple threads.
-</p>
-<p>
-To help debugging problems in multithreaded applications, GLib
-supports error-checking mutexes that will give you helpful error
-messages on common problems. To use error-checking mutexes, define
-the symbol <span class="type">G_ERRORCHECK_MUTEXES</span> when compiling the application.

-This example shows an array which can be accessed by many readers
-(the <code class="function"><code class="function">my_array_get()</code></code> function) simultaneously,
-whereas the writers (the <code class="function"><code class="function">my_array_set()</code></code>
-function) will only be allowed once at a time and only if no readers
-currently access the array. This is because of the potentially
-dangerous resizing of the array. Using these functions is fully
-multi-thread safe now.
-</p>
-<p>
-Most of the time, writers should have precedence over readers. That
-means, for this implementation, that as soon as a writer wants to
-lock the data, no other reader is allowed to lock the data, whereas,
-of course, the readers that already have locked the data are allowed
-to finish their operation. As soon as the last reader unlocks the
-data, the writer will lock it.
-</p>
-<p>
-Even though <a class="link" href="glib-Threads.html#GStaticRWLock" title="GStaticRWLock"><span class="type">GStaticRWLock</span></a> is not opaque, it should only be used
-with the following functions.
-</p>
-<p>
-All of the <code class="function">g_static_rw_lock_*</code> functions can be
-used even if <a class="link" href="glib-Threads.html#g-thread-init" title="g_thread_init ()"><code class="function">g_thread_init()</code></a> has not been called. Then they do
-nothing, apart from <code class="function">g_static_rw_lock_*_trylock</code>,
-which does nothing but returning <a class="link" href="glib-Standard-Macros.html#TRUE:CAPS" title="TRUE"><code class="literal">TRUE</code></a>.

-<p>A read-write lock has a higher overhead than a mutex. For
-example, both <a class="link" href="glib-Threads.html#g-static-rw-lock-reader-lock" title="g_static_rw_lock_reader_lock ()"><code class="function">g_static_rw_lock_reader_lock()</code></a> and

-<a class="link" href="glib-Threads.html#GStaticMutex" title="GStaticMutex"><span class="type">GStaticMutex</span></a>, so it takes at least twice the time to lock and unlock
-a <a class="link" href="glib-Threads.html#GStaticRWLock" title="GStaticRWLock"><span class="type">GStaticRWLock</span></a> that it does to lock and unlock a <a class="link" href="glib-Threads.html#GStaticMutex" title="GStaticMutex"><span class="type">GStaticMutex</span></a>. So
-only data structures that are accessed by multiple readers, and which
-keep the lock for a considerable time justify a <a class="link" href="glib-Threads.html#GStaticRWLock" title="GStaticRWLock"><span class="type">GStaticRWLock</span></a>. The
