Hi, just wanted to know the status of the glib dependency removal process ?
glib has been a high pain for me when porting to Windows and Mac. I'd be happy to see it removed from fluidsynth and port my fluidXtra to a glib-free fluid.
Thanks Antoine
Well, I've already ported over most glib utilities, atomics, and mutexes (normal and recursive). I just ended up busy with several other things until this weekend. On January 21, 2016 4:06:41 PM CST, Johannes Schickel < address@hidden> wrote:

Pretty much everything outside of threading is really trivial. The wiki says the supported platforms are Windows, OSX, and Linux, and that it runs under Solaris and OS/2 but they aren't officially supported.
For atomics, glib seems to use GCC's C++11-style atomics. when it can, then it falls back to either GCC/Clang's built-in __sync atomic operations or Windows's atomic API.
For normal threads, glib uses pthreads on Posix and Windows threads on...Windows.
Maybe I'm just super nerdy, but this seems totally doable. ;)
I guess if you can rely on compiler's atomics support it's not too hard. Creating/managing threads is usually rather easy.
