+Exported Global Variables for GLib</title><shortdesc>GLib on Linux has many global variables like <codeph>g_idle_funcs</codeph> exported
+from the <filepath>.so</filepath> file. Symbian platform does not support
+exporting global variables from the DLL. Therefore, the global variable of
+GLib cannot be exported and hence used directly.</shortdesc><prolog><metadata><keywords/></metadata></prolog><conbody>
+<p>The users must include the header <filepath>glib_global.h</filepath> for <codeph>libglib</codeph> global
+variables and <filepath>gobject_global.h</filepath> for <codeph>libgobject</codeph> global
+variables. The other two DLLs - <codeph>libgmodule</codeph> and <codeph>libgthread</codeph> -
+do not have any exported global variables.</p>
+<note>The header must be included only after all the other headers in the
+file.</note>
+<p>The following example code snippet explains the usage. This is a code that
+prints the version of GLib being used.</p>
+<p>The variables listed below are <codeph>libglib</codeph> global variables:</p>
+<ul>
+<li><p><codeph>glib_major_version</codeph></p></li>
+<li><p><codeph>glib_minor_version</codeph></p></li>
+<li><p><codeph>glib_micro_version</codeph></p></li>
+</ul>
