/**
* SECTION: datasets
* @title: Datasets
* @short_description: associate groups of data elements with
* particular memory locations
*
* Datasets associate groups of data elements with particular memory
* locations. These are useful if you need to associate data with a
* structure returned from an external library. Since you cannot modify
* the structure, you use its location in memory as the key into a
* dataset, where you can associate any number of data elements with it.
*
* There are two forms of most of the dataset functions. The first form
* uses strings to identify the data elements associated with a
* location. The second form uses #GQuark identifiers, which are
* created with a call to g_quark_from_string() or
* g_quark_from_static_string(). The second form is quicker, since it
* does not require looking up the string in the hash table of #GQuark
* identifiers.
*
* There is no function to create a dataset. It is automatically
* created as soon as you add elements to it.
*
* To add data elements to a dataset use g_dataset_id_set_data(),
* g_dataset_id_set_data_full(), g_dataset_set_data() and
* g_dataset_set_data_full().
*
* To get data elements from a dataset use g_dataset_id_get_data() and
* g_dataset_get_data().
*
* To iterate over all data elements in a dataset use
* g_dataset_foreach() (not thread-safe).
*
* To remove data elements from a dataset use
* g_dataset_id_remove_data() and g_dataset_remove_data().
*
* To destroy a dataset, use g_dataset_destroy().
**/
/**
* SECTION: datalist
* @title: Keyed Data Lists
* @short_description: lists of data elements which are accessible by a
* string or GQuark identifier
*
* Keyed data lists provide lists of arbitrary data elements which can
* be accessed either with a string or with a #GQuark corresponding to
* the string.
*
* The #GQuark methods are quicker, since the strings have to be
* converted to #GQuarks anyway.
*
* Data lists are used for associating arbitrary data with #GObjects,
* using g_object_set_data() and related functions.
*
* To create a datalist, use g_datalist_init().
*
* To add data elements to a datalist use g_datalist_id_set_data(),
* g_datalist_id_set_data_full(), g_datalist_set_data() and
* g_datalist_set_data_full().
*
* To get data elements from a datalist use g_datalist_id_get_data()
* and g_datalist_get_data().
*
* To iterate over all data elements in a datalist use
* g_datalist_foreach() (not thread-safe).
*
* To remove data elements from a datalist use
* g_datalist_id_remove_data() and g_datalist_remove_data().
*
* To remove all data elements from a datalist, use g_datalist_clear().

* SECTION: quarks
* @title: Quarks
* @short_description: a 2-way association between a string and a
* unique integer identifier
*
* Quarks are associations between strings and integer identifiers.
* Given either the string or the #GQuark identifier it is possible to
* retrieve the other.
*
* Quarks are used for both <link
* linkend="glib-datasets">Datasets</link> and <link
* linkend="glib-keyed-data-lists">Keyed Data Lists</link>.
*
* To create a new quark from a string, use g_quark_from_string() or
* g_quark_from_static_string().
*
* To find the string corresponding to a given #GQuark, use
* g_quark_to_string().
*
* To find the #GQuark corresponding to a given string, use
* g_quark_try_string().
*
* Another use for the string pool maintained for the quark functions
* is string interning, using g_intern_string() or
* g_intern_static_string(). An interned string is a canonical
* representation for a string. One important advantage of interned
* strings is that they can be compared for equality by a simple
* pointer comparision, rather than using strcmp().
