35 * @short_description: System networking includes
36 * @include: gio/gnetworking.h
38 * The `<gio/gnetworking.h>` header can be included to get
39 * various low-level networking-related system headers, automatically
40 * taking care of certain portability issues for you.
42 * This can be used, for example, if you want to call setsockopt()
43 * on a #GSocket.
45 * Note that while WinSock has many of the same APIs as the
46 * traditional UNIX socket API, most of them behave at least slightly
47 * differently (particularly with respect to error handling). If you
48 * want your code to work under both UNIX and Windows, you will need
49 * to take these differences into account.
51 * Also, under GNU libc, certain non-portable functions are only visible
52 * in the headers if you define %_GNU_SOURCE before including them. Note
53 * that this symbol must be defined before including any headers, or it
54 * may not take effect.
