  37  * @short_description: A mechanism to wrap opaque C structures registered
  38  *     by the type system
  39  * @see_also: #GParamSpecBoxed, g_param_spec_boxed()
  40  * @title: Boxed Types
  41  *
  42  * GBoxed is a generic wrapper mechanism for arbitrary C structures. The only
  43  * thing the type system needs to know about the structures is how to copy and
  44  * free them, beyond that they are treated as opaque chunks of memory.
  45  *
  46  * Boxed types are useful for simple value-holder structures like rectangles or
  47  * points. They can also be used for wrapping structures defined in non-GObject
  48  * based libraries.
