-Event Loop</title><shortdesc>The GLib event loop manages all the sources of an event available
-for GLib. These events can come from different kinds of sources like file
-descriptors (plain file descriptors, sockets, or pipes), time-outs, or any
-kind of source that can be added.</shortdesc><prolog><metadata><keywords/></metadata></prolog><conbody>
-<p>To allow multiple independent sets of events to be handled in different
-threads, each source is associated with a <codeph>GMainContext</codeph>.</p>
-<p>Each event source is given a priority. The default priority is <codeph>G_PRIORITY_DEFAULT</codeph> and
-its value is 0. Values less than 0 denote higher priority and values greater
-than zero denote lower priority. The events from higher priority sources are
-processed earlier than events from lower priority sources.</p>
-<p>The <codeph>GMainLoop</codeph> data type represents an event loop. <codeph>GMainContext</codeph> is
-a parameter to <codeph>GMainLoop</codeph>. If <codeph>GMainContext</codeph> is
-passed as NULL, then a main loop with the default context is created. After
-the sources are added to <codeph>GMainContext</codeph> and a <codeph>GMainLoop</codeph> variable
-is created, <codeph>g_main_loop_run()</codeph> is called. This checks continuously
-for events from its sources and dispatches them. Finally when all the events
-have been processed, <codeph>g_main_loop_quit()</codeph> must be called to
-return from <codeph>g_main_loop_run()</codeph>.</p>
-<note>Sources are associated with <codeph>GMainContext</codeph> and not with <codeph>GMainLoop</codeph>.
