27 * @title: gnetworking.h
28 * @short_description: System networking includes
29 * @include: gio/gnetworking.h
30 *
31 * The `<gio/gnetworking.h>` header can be included to get
32 * various low-level networking-related system headers, automatically
33 * taking care of certain portability issues for you.
34 *
35 * This can be used, for example, if you want to call setsockopt()
36 * on a #GSocket.
37 *
38 * Note that while WinSock has many of the same APIs as the
39 * traditional UNIX socket API, most of them behave at least slightly
40 * differently (particularly with respect to error handling). If you
41 * want your code to work under both UNIX and Windows, you will need
42 * to take these differences into account.
43 *
44 * Also, under GNU libc, certain non-portable functions are only visible
45 * in the headers if you define %_GNU_SOURCE before including them. Note
46 * that this symbol must be defined before including any headers, or it
47 * may not take effect.

51 * g_networking_init:

54 * calls WSAStartup()). GLib will call this itself if it is needed, so
55 * you only need to call it if you directly call system networking
56 * functions (without calling any GLib networking functions first).
