checkVersion

fnstring checkVersion(uint requiredMajor, uint requiredMinor, uint requiredMicro)

Checks that the GLib library in use is compatible with the given version.

Generally you would pass in the constants [glib.types.MAJOR_VERSION], [glib.types.MINOR_VERSION], [glib.types.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_minor.required_micro. Second the running library must be binary compatible with the version required_major.required_minor.required_micro (same major version.)

Parameters

requiredMajorthe required major version
requiredMinorthe required minor version
requiredMicrothe required micro version

Returns

null 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.
