> These problems are common to many applications / libraries that are written in C and thus there are a number of libraries that attempt to provide a high level “standard library”. The GLib library is one such effort from the GNOME project developers that has long been appealing.
I've been a fan of glib for some time, other than glib and apache libapr, what other "high level standard libraries" for C should I know about?
GLib is the awesome standard library I get to use everywhere thanks to gobject-introspection. From work projects in Vala, window manager¹, image viewer², video player³. It is especially useful with lua configurable projects, given the sparsity of the language itself.
