Function glib::functions::check_version

pub fn check_version(
    required_major: u32, 
    required_minor: u32, 
    required_micro: u32
) -> GString

Checks that the GLib library in use is compatible with the given version. Generally you would pass in the constants GLIB_MAJOR_VERSION, GLIB_MINOR_VERSION, GLIB_MICRO_VERSION as the three arguments to this function; that produces a check that the library in use is compatible with the version of GLib the application or module was compiled against.

Compatibility is defined by two things: first the version of the running library is newer than the version required_major.required_micro. Second the running library must be binary compatible with the version required_major.required_micro (same major version.)

required_major

the required major version

required_minor

the required minor version

required_micro

the required micro version

Returns

None if the GLib library is compatible with the given version, or a string describing the version mismatch. The returned string is owned by GLib and must not be modified or freed.
