-<p>
-      The memory-management API for GObjects is a bit complicated but the idea behind it
-      is pretty simple: the goal is to provide a flexible model based on reference counting
-      which can be integrated in applications which use or require different memory management
-      models (such as garbage collection, aso...). The methods which are used to
-      manipulate this reference count are described below.

-        increase and decrease the reference count.These functions are thread-safe as of GLib 2.8.
-        The reference count is, unsurprisingly, initialized to one by
-        <code class="function"><a class="link" href="gobject-The-Base-Object-Type.html#g-object-new" title="g_object_new ()">g_object_new</a></code> which means that the caller
-        is currently the sole owner of the newly-created reference.
-        When the reference count reaches zero, that is,
-        when <code class="function"><a class="link" href="gobject-The-Base-Object-Type.html#g-object-unref" title="g_object_unref ()">g_object_unref</a></code> is called by the last client holding
-        a reference to the object, the <span class="emphasis"><em>dispose</em></span> and the
-        <span class="emphasis"><em>finalize</em></span> class methods are invoked.
-      </p>
-<p>
-        Finally, after <span class="emphasis"><em>finalize</em></span> is invoked,
-        <code class="function"><a class="link" href="gobject-Type-Information.html#g-type-free-instance" title="g_type_free_instance ()">g_type_free_instance</a></code> is called to free the object instance.
-        Depending on the memory allocation policy decided when the type was registered (through
-        one of the <code class="function">g_type_register_*</code> functions), the object's instance
-        memory will be freed or returned to the object pool for this type.
-        Once the object has been freed, if it was the last instance of the type, the type's class
-        will be destroyed as described in <a class="xref" href="gtype-instantiable-classed.html" title="Instantiable classed types: objects">the section called “Instantiable classed types: objects”</a> and

-      Weak References are used to monitor object finalization:
-      <code class="function"><a class="link" href="gobject-The-Base-Object-Type.html#g-object-weak-ref" title="g_object_weak_ref ()">g_object_weak_ref</a></code> adds a monitoring callback which does
-      not hold a reference to the object but which is invoked when the object runs
-      its dispose method. As such, each weak ref can be invoked more than once upon
-      object finalization (since dispose can run more than once during object
-      finalization).
-      </p>

-        Note: the following section was inspired by James Henstridge. I guess this means that
-        all praise and all curses will be directly forwarded to him.
-      </p>
-<p>
-        GObject's memory management model was designed to be easily integrated in existing code
-        using garbage collection. This is why the destruction process is split in two phases:
-        the first phase, executed in the dispose handler is supposed to release all references
-        to other member objects. The second phase, executed by the finalize handler is supposed
-        to complete the object's destruction process. Object methods should be able to run
-        without program error (that is, without segfault :) in-between the two phases.
-      </p>
-<p>
-        This two-step destruction process is very useful to break reference counting cycles.
-        While the detection of the cycles is up to the external code, once the cycles have been
-        detected, the external code can invoke <code class="function">g_object_dispose</code> which
-        will indeed break any existing cycles since it will run the dispose handler associated
-        to the object and thus release all references to other objects.
-      </p>
-<p>
-        Attentive readers might now have understood one of the rules about the dispose handler
-        we stated a bit sooner: the dispose handler can be invoked multiple times. Let's say we
-        have a reference count cycle: object A references B which itself references object A.
-        Let's say we have detected the cycle and we want to destroy the two objects. One way to
-        do this would be to invoke <code class="function">g_object_dispose</code> on one of the
-        objects.
-      </p>
-<p>
-        If object A releases all its references to all objects, this means it releases its
-        reference to object B. If object B was not owned by anyone else, this is its last
-        reference count which means this last unref runs B's dispose handler which, in turn,
-        releases B's reference on object A. If this is A's last reference count, this last
-        unref runs A's dispose handler which is running for the second time before
-        A's finalize handler is invoked !
-      </p>
-<p>
-        The above example, which might seem a bit contrived can really happen if your
-        GObject's are being handled by language bindings. I would thus suggest the rules stated above
-        for object destruction are closely followed. Otherwise, <span class="emphasis"><em>Bad Bad Things</em></span>
-        will happen.

-<p>
-      One of GObject's nice features is its generic get/set mechanism for object
-      properties. When an object
-      is instantiated, the object's class_init handler should be used to register
-      the object's properties with <code class="function"><a class="link" href="gobject-The-Base-Object-Type.html#g-object-class-install-property" title="g_object_class_install_property ()">g_object_class_install_property</a></code>
-      (implemented in <code class="filename">gobject.c</code>).
-    </p>

-      into a GValue whose type is that of the associated property.
-    </p>
-<p>
-      If the user provides a signed char GValue, as is shown
-      here, and if the object's property was registered as an unsigned int,
-      <code class="function"><a class="link" href="gobject-Generic-values.html#g-value-transform" title="g_value_transform ()">g_value_transform</a></code> will try to transform the input signed char into
-      an unsigned int. Of course, the success of the transformation depends on the availability
-      of the required transform function. In practice, there will almost always be a transformation
-      <sup>[<a name="id393192" href="#ftn.id393192" class="footnote">4</a>]</sup>
-      which matches and conversion will be carried out if needed.
-    </p>
-<p>
-      After transformation, the <span class="type"><a class="link" href="gobject-Generic-values.html#GValue" title="GValue">GValue</a></span> is validated by
-      <code class="function"><a class="link" href="gobject-GParamSpec.html#g-param-value-validate" title="g_param_value_validate ()">g_param_value_validate</a></code> which makes sure the user's
-      data stored in the <span class="type"><a class="link" href="gobject-Generic-values.html#GValue" title="GValue">GValue</a></span> matches the characteristics specified by
-      the property's <span class="type"><a class="link" href="gobject-GParamSpec.html#GParamSpec" title="GParamSpec">GParamSpec</a></span>.  Here, the <span class="type"><a class="link" href="gobject-GParamSpec.html#GParamSpec" title="GParamSpec">GParamSpec</a></span> we
-      provided in class_init has a validation function which makes sure that the GValue
-      contains a value which respects the minimum and maximum bounds of the
-      <span class="type"><a class="link" href="gobject-GParamSpec.html#GParamSpec" title="GParamSpec">GParamSpec</a></span>. In the example above, the client's GValue does not
-      respect these constraints (it is set to 11, while the maximum is 10). As such, the
-      <code class="function"><a class="link" href="gobject-The-Base-Object-Type.html#g-object-set-property" title="g_object_set_property ()">g_object_set_property</a></code> function will return with an error.
-    </p>
-<p>
-      If the user's GValue had been set to a valid value, <code class="function"><a class="link" href="gobject-The-Base-Object-Type.html#g-object-set-property" title="g_object_set_property ()">g_object_set_property</a></code>
-      would have proceeded with calling the object's set_property class method. Here, since our
-      implementation of Foo did override this method, the code path would jump to
-      <code class="function">foo_set_property</code> after having retrieved from the
-      <span class="type"><a class="link" href="gobject-GParamSpec.html#GParamSpec" title="GParamSpec">GParamSpec</a></span> the <span class="emphasis"><em>param_id</em></span>
-      <sup>[<a name="id393282" href="#ftn.id393282" class="footnote">5</a>]</sup>
-      which had been stored by
-      <code class="function"><a class="link" href="gobject-The-Base-Object-Type.html#g-object-class-install-property" title="g_object_class_install_property ()">g_object_class_install_property</a></code>.
-    </p>
-<p>
-      Once the property has been set by the object's set_property class method, the code path
-      returns to <code class="function"><a class="link" href="gobject-The-Base-Object-Type.html#g-object-set-property" title="g_object_set_property ()">g_object_set_property</a></code> which calls
-      <code class="function">g_object_notify_queue_thaw</code>. This function makes sure that
-      the "notify" signal is emitted on the object's instance with the changed property as
-      parameter unless notifications were frozen by <code class="function"><a class="link" href="gobject-The-Base-Object-Type.html#g-object-freeze-notify" title="g_object_freeze_notify ()">g_object_freeze_notify</a></code>.
-    </p>
-<p>
-      <code class="function"><a class="link" href="gobject-The-Base-Object-Type.html#g-object-thaw-notify" title="g_object_thaw_notify ()">g_object_thaw_notify</a></code> can be used to re-enable notification of
-      property modifications through the "notify" signal. It is important to remember that
-      even if properties are changed while property change notification is frozen, the "notify"
-      signal will be emitted once for each of these changed properties as soon as the property
-      change notification is thawed: no property change is lost for the "notify" signal. Signal
-      can only be delayed by the notification freezing mechanism.
-    </p>

-      It sounds like a tedious task to set up GValues every time when one wants to modify a property.
-      In practice one will rarely do this. The functions <code class="function"><a class="link" href="gobject-The-Base-Object-Type.html#g-object-set-property" title="g_object_set_property ()">g_object_set_property</a></code>
-      and <code class="function"><a class="link" href="gobject-The-Base-Object-Type.html#g-object-get-property" title="g_object_get_property ()">g_object_get_property</a></code>
-      are meant to be used by language bindings. For application there is an easier way and
-      that is described next.

-<p>
-        It is interesting to note that the <code class="function"><a class="link" href="gobject-The-Base-Object-Type.html#g-object-set" title="g_object_set ()">g_object_set</a></code> and
-        <code class="function"><a class="link" href="gobject-The-Base-Object-Type.html#g-object-set-valist" title="g_object_set_valist ()">g_object_set_valist</a></code> (vararg version) functions can be used to set
-        multiple properties at once. The client code shown above can then be re-written as:
-</p>
-<pre class="programlisting">
-MamanBar *foo;
-foo = /* */;
-g_object_set (G_OBJECT (foo),
-              "papa-number", 2,
-              "maman-name", "test",
-              NULL);
-</pre>
-<p>
-        This saves us from managing the GValues that we were needing to handle when using
-        <code class="function"><a class="link" href="gobject-The-Base-Object-Type.html#g-object-set-property" title="g_object_set_property ()">g_object_set_property</a></code>.
-        The code above will trigger one notify signal emission for each property modified.
-      </p>
-<p>
-        Of course, the _get versions are also available: <code class="function"><a class="link" href="gobject-The-Base-Object-Type.html#g-object-get" title="g_object_get ()">g_object_get</a></code>
-        and <code class="function"><a class="link" href="gobject-The-Base-Object-Type.html#g-object-get-valist" title="g_object_get_valist ()">g_object_get_valist</a></code> (vararg version) can be used to get numerous
-        properties at once.
-      </p>
-<p>
-        These high level functions have one drawback - they don't provide a return result.
-        One should pay attention to the argument types and ranges when using them.
-        A known source of errors is to e.g. pass a gfloat instead of a gdouble and thus
-        shifting all subsequent parameters by four bytes. Also forgetting the terminating
-        NULL will lead to unexpected behaviour.
-      </p>
-<p>
-        Really attentive readers now understand how <code class="function"><a class="link" href="gobject-The-Base-Object-Type.html#g-object-new" title="g_object_new ()">g_object_new</a></code>,
-        <code class="function"><a class="link" href="gobject-The-Base-Object-Type.html#g-object-newv" title="g_object_newv ()">g_object_newv</a></code> and <code class="function"><a class="link" href="gobject-The-Base-Object-Type.html#g-object-new-valist" title="g_object_new_valist ()">g_object_new_valist</a></code>
-        work: they parse the user-provided variable number of parameters and invoke
-        <code class="function"><a class="link" href="gobject-The-Base-Object-Type.html#g-object-set" title="g_object_set ()">g_object_set</a></code> on the parameters only after the object has been successfully constructed.
-        Of course, the "notify" signal will be emitted for each property set.

-          It should be noted that the param_id used here need only to uniquely identify each
